Low TCR nanocomposite strain gages

A high temperature thin film strain gage sensor capable of functioning at temperatures above 1400.degree. C. The sensor contains a substrate, a nanocomposite film comprised of an indium tin oxide alloy, zinc oxide doped with alumina or other oxide semiconductor and a refractory metal selected from the group consisting of Pt, Pd, Rh, Ni, W, Ir, NiCrAlY and NiCoCrAlY deposited onto the substrate to form an active strain element. The strain element being responsive to an applied force.

Oxidation Behavior of Glassy Alloys

The oxidation behavior of high temperature glassy alloys produced by rapid solidification processing is investigated and the effects of processing and composition on oxidation behavior is studied. Glassy Ta-44.5at%Ir, Ta-40at%Ir-10at%B and Nb-45at%Ir oxidized rapidly at 700 to 800 C at an oxygen partial pressure of .001 atm. The alloys were embrittled during the oxidation process. No apparent oxidation or embrittlement of the Ta-Ir alloy occurred after oxidation for 4h at 500 C at an oxygen partial pressure of .001 atm. Embrittlement occurred, however, after 100h of exposure under the latter conditions. Alloy embrittlement is associated with the partial or full conversion of the metallic glass to a mixture of crystalline beta-Ta2O5 and metallic iridium. Hot compaction of glassy alloys of this type must be limited to relatively low temperatures (approx. 500 C) and short times at the low temperatures unless extremely low oxygen partial pressures can be achieved during the compaction process.

Development of rapidly solidified oxidation resistant alloys

The development of iron-base alloys that contain low concentrations of expensive and/or strategic metals, but that are very resistant to oxidation at elevated tempratures was investigated. Rapid solidification processing was employed to make alloys that are uniform in composition, that comprise very fine grains 10 microns and that contain a uniform dispersion of very fine ( 0.5 microns) nonmetallic inclusions. Each of these factors contribute to the oxidation behavior of alloys. The compositional and processing variables that yield the optimum oxidation resistance are described.

The oxidation and corrosion of ODS alloys

The oxidation and hot corrosion of high temperature oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) alloys are reviewed. The environmental resistance of such alloys are classified by oxide growth rate, oxide volatility, oxide spalling, and hot corrosion limitations. Also discussed are environmentally resistant coatings for ODS materials. It is concluded that ODS NiCrAl and FeCrAl alloys are highly oxidation and corrosion resistant and can probably be used uncoated.

Longitudinal shear behavior of several oxide dispersion strengthened alloys

Two commercial oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) alloys, MA-753 and MA-754, and three experimental ODS alloys, MA-757E, MA-755E, and MA-6000E, were tested in shear at 760 C. Comparisons were made with other turbine blade and vane alloys. All of the ODS alloys exhibited less shear strength than directionally solidified Mar-M 200 = Hf or then conventionally cast B-1900. The strongest ODS alloy tested, MA-755E, was comparable in both shear and tensile strength to the lamellar directionally solidified eutectic alloy gamma/gamma prime - delta. Substantial improvements in shear resistance were found for all alloys tested when the geometry of the specimen was changed from one generating a transverse tensile stress in the shear area to one generating a transverse compressive stress. Finally, 760 C shear strength as a fraction of tensile strength was found to increase linearly with the log of the transverse tensile ductility.

Comparisons were made with other turbine-blade and vane alloys. All of the ODS alloys exhibited less shear strength than directionally solidified Mar-M 200 + Hf or than conventionally cast B-1900. The strongest ODS alloy tested, MA-755E, was comparable in both shear and tensile strength to the lamellar directionally solidified eutectic alloy gamma/gamma-prime - delta. Substantial improvements in shear resistance were found for all alloys tested when the geometry of the specimen was changed from one generating a transverse tensile stress in the shear area to one generating a transverse compressive stress. Finally, 760-C shear strength as a fraction of tensile strength was found to increase linearly with the log of the transverse tensile ductility.

COREST: A FORTRAN computer program to analyze paralinear oxidation behavior and its application to chromic oxide forming alloys

A FORTRAN computer program (COREST) was developed to analyze the high-temperature paralinear oxidation behavior of metals. It is based on a mass-balance approach and uses typical gravimetric input data. COREST was applied to predominantly Cr2O3-forming alloys tested isothermally for long times. These alloys behaved paralinearly above 1100 C as a result of simultaneous scale formation and scale vaporization. Output includes the pertinent formation and vaporization constants and kinetic values of interest. COREST also estimates specific sample weight and specific scale weight as a function of time. Most importantly, from a corrosion standpoint, it estimates specific metal loss.

Manufacture and engine test of advanced oxide dispersion strengthened alloy turbine vanes

Oxide-Dispersion-strengthened (ODS) Ni-Cr-Al alloy systems were exploited for turbine engine vanes which would be used for the space shuttle thermal protection system. Available commercial and developmental advanced ODS alloys were evaluated, and three were selected based on established vane property goals and manufacturing criteria. The selected alloys were evaluated in an engine test. Candidate alloys were screened by strength, thermal fatigue resistance, oxidation and sulfidation resistance. The Ni-16Cr (3 to 5)Al-ThO2 system was identified as having attractive high temperature oxidation resistance. Subsequent work also indicated exceptional sulfidation resistance for these alloys.
