Northcutt, Jr, W G

A summary is presented of the fabrication development of W--3.5 Ni--1.5 Fe and W--7 Ni--3 Fe alloys. Liquid-phase sintering of isostatically cold-pressed powder compacts in hydrogen was employed together with subsequent heat treatments and swaging. Tensile properties, hardness, density, and microstructure were correlated with cold work. (DLC)
