DISPERSION STRENGTHENED NICKEL-BASE ALLOYS.
Abstract
The swaged cone of extruded Nichrome-thoria alloys prepared by the thermal decomposition of thorium nitrate onto alloy powder indicated descreased capacity for cold working with increased oxide content and increasing hardness levels with increasing amounts of thoria and cold working. The cold swaging of these dispersion-strengthened Nichrome alloys was dependent on the presence of a mild steel jacket on the alloy rod as a result of the canned extrusion practice. Efforts to cold swage the alloy materials without this jacket were unsuccessful. (Author)
