NiTiAl Intermetallic Alloys Strengthened by Mo Replacement

Optimizaton of Mo-Si-B Intermetallic Alloys

Mo-Si-B intermetallics consisting of the phases Mo3Si and Mo5SiB2, and a molybdenum solid solution (“ -Mo”), have melting points on the order of 2000 °C. These alloys have potential as oxidationresistant ultra-high-temperature structural materials. They can be designed with microstructures containing either individual -Mo particles or a continuous -Mo phase. A compilation of existing data shows...

Effect of Mo Addition on Nanostructured Ni50Al50 Intermetallic Compound Synthesized by Mechanical Alloying

The mechanical alloying process was used to synthesize the Ni50Al50−xMox nanocrystalline intermetallic compound using pure Ni and Al elemental powder. This process was carried out in the presence of various Mo contents as a micro-alloying element for various milling times. Structural changes of powder particles during mechanical alloying were studied by X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and scanning e...

Molecular Dynamics Study of Thermal Properties of Intermetallic Alloys

Molecular dynamics simulations of bulk copper, gold pure metals and their ordered intermetallics alloys of Cu3Au(L12) and CuAu3(L12) have been carried out between above 0 K and below the their melting points of the materials for predicting their temperature-dependent thermophysical properties. The effects of temperature and concentration on the physical properties such as enthalpy, volume, heat...

Mo-Si-B alloys for ultrahigh-temperature structural applications.

A continuing quest in science is the development of materials capable of operating structurally at ever-increasing temperatures. Indeed, the development of gas-turbine engines for aircraft/aerospace, which has had a seminal impact on our ability to travel, has been controlled by the availability of materials capable of withstanding the higher-temperature hostile environments encountered in thes...
