High Temperature Oxidation Behavior of gamma-Ni+gamma'-Ni3Al Alloys and Coatings Modified with Pt and Reactive Elements

Description: Materials for high-pressure turbine blades must be able to operate in the high-temperature gases (above 1000 C) emerging from the combustion chamber. Accordingly, the development of nickel-based superalloys has been constantly motivated by the need to have improved engine efficiency, reliability and service lifetime under the harsh conditions imposed by the turbine environment. However, the melting point of nickel (1455 C) provides a natural ceiling for the temperature capability of nickel-base… more

Thermodynamic Properties of Nonstoichiometric Nickel Tellurides and of Tellurium

Description: As part of a thermodynamic study of NiTe and NiTe/sub 2/, an attempt was made to gather data which would determine zero-point entropies as a function of composition. Part of the necessary data have been gathered, and in addition a number of other pertinent or interesting properties of the nickel tellurides, and of Te, have been investigated. Specific heats from 4 to 350 deg K have been measured on NiTe/sub 1.1/ NiTe/sub 1.5/, and NiTe/sub 2.0/, and the thermodynamic functions of these and all i… more

The incongruent melting and melt textured solidification process of Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}CaCu{sub 2}O{sub 8}

Description: The melting and solidification was studied using in-situ high temperature XRD from melting point to 900{degree}C in 0.2, 0.1, 0.02 atm O{sub 2} and pure N{sub 2}. The incongruent melting point of Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}CaCu{sub 2}O{sub 8} was lowered by decreasing the partial O{sub 2} pressure from 870C (in .2 atm O{sub 2}) to 830C (in pure N{sub 2} atmosphere). As temperature was increased the incongruent melting of Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}CaCu{sub 2}O{sub 8} followed a phase sequence in which (Ca, Sr)Cu… more

The effect of composition on the mechanism of continuous recrystallization and superplastic response of aluminum-scandium alloys

Description: The continuous recrystallization (CRX) appears to be fundamental in Al-Sc because it occurs irrespective of solute composition. It appears to be due to a combination of subgrain coalescence at low strains and incorporation of additional dislocations generated during grain boundary sliding at higher strains when the misorientation has increased sufficiently. Alloying additives such as Mg, Li are more important with respect to deformation after CRX is completed. Mg, and to a lesser extent Li, aff… more
