Abstract:Two quaternary systems, Ir-Nb-Ni-Al and Ir-Nb-Pt-Al, were successively investigated to assess their possible use in ultra-high-temperature applications. The phase relationships concentrated on the fcc/L1 2 two-phase region were primarily established, and the mechanical properties were studied. Ir-Nb-Ni-Al quaternary alloys around the Ir-rich or Ni-rich corners of the Ir-Nb-Ni-Al tetrahedron showed a coherent fcc/L1 2 two-phase structure, analogous to that of Ni-base superalloys; however, most of the alloys pre… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
