摘要:
A coating for use on a superalloy substrate comprising a diffusion barrier as an intermediate layer overlying the substrate and underlying a protective coating having a high aluminum content. The diffusion barrier layer is characterized by having low solubility for aluminum from either the substrate or the protective coating. Further, the diffusion barrier layer has low interdiffusivity for elements from the substrate and the coating, a minimal impact on the mechanical properties of the article which is coated, a minimal thermal expansion mismatch with both the substrate and the high aluminum content protective coating, and can be applied readily using existing coating application techniques. The diffusion barrier is preferably a single phase alloy or intermetallic compound.
摘要:
An improved high performance x-ray system having a rotating anode therein which includes an improved target/stem connection wherein at least about 40,000 x-ray scan-seconds are accomplished prior to tube failure due to anode assembly imbalance comprising a metallic target and a metal stem bonded to provide a composite rotating x-ray tube target is disclosed. An insert of an alloy, for example, tantalum alloy, is placed between the target layer and the stem and then bonded thereto to produce a composite x-ray tube target/stem having a high remelt temperature and bond strength which retains its balance throughout the manufacturing process and during x-ray tube operations is also disclosed.

Ni-base alloy foils are made directly from Ni-base alloy powders by hot pressing. These Ni-base alloy foils are characterized by having a thickness of 0.017 in. or less, and by the fact that they are fine-grained and substantially free of oxygen, nitrogen and deformation-induced defects. The as-pressed Ni-base foils are generally ductile and adapted for subsequent forming operations, including cold rolling. The reduction in thickness imparted in a single pass to a Ni-base alloy foil through cold-rolling ranged from 4-10% depending on the alloy composition. The total reduction in thickness ranged from about 10-50% based upon a plurality of such passes. For reductions in thickness greater than about 10%, annealing is employed for stress relief.

Composite structures having a higher density, stronger reinforcing niobium based alloy embedded within a lower density, lower strength niobium based cladding alloy are provided. The cladding is preferably an alloy having a niobium and titanium base according to the expression:Nb.sub.balance -Ti.sub.35-45 -Hf.sub.10-15.The reinforcement may be in the form of plates, sheets or rods of the higher strength, higher temperature niobium based reinforcing alloy. The same crystal form is present in both the matrix and the reinforcement and is specifically body centered cubic crystal form.

摘要:
A substantial gain in the properties of conventional FeCrAlY is achieved by adding RuAl to a melt of the conventional material. The resultant composition has a use temperature above the melting point of nickel base superalloys and has good strength and ductility properties to permit its use as a high temperature structural material.
摘要:
Alloy compositions suitable for use in protecting refractory base alloy compositions are disclosed. The coating is formed of an alloy containing chromium, ruthenium and aluminum and which may contain iron, cobalt and nickel. The coating is found to be highly resistant to oxidation.
摘要:
A gun barrel is produced by vacuum plasma spray depositing an inner layer of a refractory metal as a gun barrel liner on a mandrel, followed by deposit of successive layers of dense gun barrel jacket material to build up a structure from the inside out. The outermost layer can include attachment means for fixing the barrel into a gun mechanism.
