Description

, We July 2 UNITED STATES 'PXTEN T oFFicE" 2,288,660 ELECTRIC RESISTANCE ALLOY Hans Gustaf Albert you Kantzow and Bengt Gunnar Oscar Nordstriim,
Sweden Hallstahammar,
No Drawing. Application June 30, 1939, Serial i In Sweden February 25, 1938 4 Claims.- (Cl. 201-76) In electric resistance materials for high temperatures, which in addition to-iron contain as main ingredients chromium, aluminium and cobalt as well as possibly titanium, it has been found that the strength of the material at high temperatures is not sumcient when the resistance materials are used for certain constructions, for
example, types of radiating apparatus. This is substantially due to the fact that at high temperatures (for example 1000-1250" C.) the material undergoes a permanent elongation. which will remain after the material has cooled down. An object of the present invention is to overcome this disadvantage and thus to improve the strength at high temperatures of the alloys of the above types used as resistance materials and which, in addition to iron, contain as main ingredients chromium in the proportion of 15-35%,
aluminium 1-'7% and cobalt 0.5-8%, in which the cobalt may partly be replaced by titanium.
The said improvement is obtained by adding to such alloys certain ingredients which can into the 'alloys in the proportion of 0.24% and 0.1-4% respectively, and columbium in the proportion of 0.1-3%.
By one or several of the additions mentioned an increase in the strength of the material at high temperatures is obtained without its resistance to oxidation, and thus its life, being decreased. It has been found, however, that by means of additions of molybdenum and/or tungsten the material becomes somewhat more brittle, thus reducing its possibilities of being worked and increasing the percentage of scrap during the manufacturing process. If, however, columbium is present in conjunction with molybdenum and/ or tungsten the columbium will restore wholly or in part the tenacity that the material would have had without an addition of the ingredients mentioned.
In order further to increase the strength of the material and especially with a View to obtaining the largest possible number of crystallisation centres with the accompanying finer grain distribution a gas which is inert to carbon, for example, nitrogen, can be blown into the molten metal bath. On account of the vigorous stirring that takes place an extremely fine dispersion of nitrides is produced in the bath, which can serve as a basis for the production of crystals.
Below a few examples, are given of suitable compositions of steel alloys produced accordin to the present invention. The proportions are expressed as percentages the remainder being iron.

The carbon content should be kept as low as possible, but can vary between 0.01-0.3% up to about 0.5%.
Inaddition to the main ingredients mentioned the alloys can contain manganese and silicon in the proportions used for steel, as well as one or more secondary ingredients which occur as impurities in the crudematerial such as sulphur, or which can'be added to the alloys during the manufacturing process, for example, those derived from the slag used or from the lining of the furnace.
