Experimental research facility for creep-rupture testing of tantalum alloy T-111

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7140646
We have developed a research facility for computer-controlled elevated temperature tensile testing of refractory metallic alloys in an inert enviroment. In an application to tantalum alloy T-111, we have determined that a two-hour creep rupture life can be achieved at 1204/sup 0/C (0.45 T/sub m/) and 1300/sup 0/C (0.48 T/sub m/) if the applied true stresses are maintained below 46 ksi (317 MPa) and 36 ksi (248 MPa), respectively.
