Abstract

A method of heat treating an alloy based on one of the refractory metals Mo, W, Cb, Ta, Cr and containing carbon in excess of 0.05 Wt %, comprises aging the previously annealed alloy, prior to the final processing, for a time and at a temperature such that fine metal carbides are precipitated in the micro structure of the alloy, and then reducing the alloy to a finished form. Aging of alloys containing more than 0.1% at C may be effected by holding the alloy at a suitable elevated temperature for a certain time as follows:- .Mo and W based alloys:.5-50 hrs. at 2400-2800 DEG F .Cb and Ta based alloys:.1-10 hrs. at 2000-2500 DEG F .Cr based alloys:.1-10 hrs. at 1800-2300 DEG F Suitable temperatures given for prior annealing the alloys are: .Mo and W based alloys:.3200-4000 DEG F .Ta based alloys:.3000-4000 DEG F .Cb based alloys:.3000-3500 DEG F .Cr based alloys:.2500-3000 DEG F The process results in increased strength at high temperatures without loss of ductility at low temperatures.
