Ordered Carbon - Metal Alloys for Extraterrestrial Power Systems.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to investigate a new class of material composed of 30-60 atomic percent (Carbon-Titanium) for ultrahigh temperature applications in space power systems. The alloy system under investigation exhibits melting temperatures in excess of 2500 degrees C and from long range ordered structures which are expected to yield materials with exceptional high temperature strength and resistance to environmental degradation. Keywords: High temperature; Alloys; Mechanical properties.
