Evaluation of Be-38% Al Alloy

Abstract

Detailed studies were made on six heats of Be-38% Al alloy in the annealed temper to determine the level and reproducibility of mechanical properties, the microstructural features, preferred orientations, and the general metallurgical quality of the metal. Data reported include: Young's modulus, tensile, compressive, shear, bearing and bend properties at temperatures between -320 and 800 deg F; tensile properties at 75 deg F after exposure to 400 or 800 deg F for 10, 100, and 1000 hr: representative photomicrographs; and pole figures [viz: Be (0002), Be (10(bar)11) and Al (111)].
