THE EXTRUSION, FORGING, ROLLING, AND EVALUATION OF REFRACTORY ALLOYS
Abstract
Metallurgical studies were conducted on the extrusion, forging, and rolling of arc cast Mo+25%W+O.1%Zr, Mo+0.5%Ti+0.08%Zr+0.02%C and W+0.57%Cb alloys. Each of the three alloys was worked successfully by extrusion and subsequent reworking. The extrusion process, as established in previous work, has remained primarily the same. However, extrusion temperatures exceeding 4200 F were reached in the working of a group of W base alloys. The maximum temperature attained was 4320 F. In addition, the extrusion process was applied to a variety of refractory alloys in order to supply wrought material for other contractors and governmental agencies. The extrusion data are contained as a portion of the work, but the metallurgical evaluation is not included, as it is accomplished by the particular agency for which the work was performed. (Author)
