Description
The elevated-temperature mechanical properties of beryllium were enhanced by forming dispersed-phase alloys. The addition of properly dispersed BeO to beryllium in quantities of 2 to 3% is equivalent to lowering the testing temperature 200 deg at 1000 to 1350 deg F. Similarly dispersed intermetalic compounds such as FeBe/sub 11/ result in a threefold increase in strength at 1350 to 1650 deg F when 1.5 to 3% tron powder is blended with beryllium powder prior to fabrication. Tensile and stress-rupture properties of some of these materials are presented along with oxidation characteristics in 1650 deg F air, and corrosion behavior in 600 deg F water relative to unalloyed beryllium.
