Definitions
- This invention also pertains to a composite feeder comprising different platinum-rhodium and molybdenum alloys wherein the molybdenum content of these alloys are in an amount sufficient to maintain the resistivitics of the alloys at the same magnitude when the feeder is in use at high temperatures.
- This invention relates to platinum-rhodium alloys and more specifically to a platinum-rhodium alloy having a third metal addition wherein its high temperature-high strength properties are greatly increased.
- a high rhodium alloy is very desirable because of its high melting properties thereby being capable of exposure to high operating temperatures during service operations.
- High rhodium content alloys in the past have been demonstrated to be capable of being produced without difficulty by a normal vacuum melting process.
- the following high rhodium alloy system has been developed: platinum 14 to 79 percent, rhodium 20 to 85 percent and a third metal addition of from 0.0] to L percent, wherein good homogenization of the third metal addition is required.
- the third metal additions are selected from the refractory or platinum group metals, such as for example, iridium, tungsten, rhenium and molybdenum and combinations thereof. Originally selected for use as solid solution strengtheners to yield a stronger alloy, these metals have been found to increase the high temperature ductility of high rhodium content alloys.
- the advantage of using an alloy of the inventive concept includes a reduction in the precious metal volatilization losses from the bushing during service and improved strength characteristics of the alloy to reduce high temperature creep rates.
- Molybdenum is the preferred third metal addition in the platinum-high rhodium content alloys of this invention because of their intended use in high-temperature resistant glass handling apparatus, although the other named third metal additions function in the same manner. Molybdenum is not known in the art to improve the ductility of a platinumrhodium alloy, so that the use herein of small percentages of molybdenum to improve the ductility of a platinum-rhodium alloy is totally unexpected and unobvious.
- the percentage of molybdenum that is added to the platinum-rhodium alloy is based upon the rhodium content, i.e. as the latter is increased so is the former.
- the molybdenum content of the alloy should not exceed 1.0 percent by weight because of the potential of undesirable internal void formations developing during service applications which embrittles the alloy.
- Some of the general characteristics of the alloy of this invention include improved tensile properties, slightly reduced oxidation losses of precious metal due to preferential oxidation of the third metal addition, improved high-temperature ductility, improved creep-rupture life, and improved weld integrity.
- the preferred composition of the inventive alloy expressed Alloys containing platinum and a high proportion of rhodium typically exhibit very brittle characteristics unless their purity is very high and their gas content very low. Even the highest purity alloys however, exhibit some brittleness especially after exposure to operating temperatures of l,800 F. to 2,750 F. Due to lattice changes with increasing rhodium content, high-rhodium alloys have a great affinity for gas, particularly oxygen. The addition of a third element, which forms a volatile oxide more readily than platinum or rhodium, tends to minimize the effects of impurities or dissolved gas on high rhodium content alloys.
- the effect of the third metal addition of high content rhodium alloys may be theorized by one of the following phenomena: l the third metal element ties up and carries away oxygen thereby preventing formation of a thin film of oxide on grain boundaries or (2) the third metal element ties up and carries away oxygen much faster than the diffusion of oxygen in the lattice network, thus preventing embrittlement or (3) the third metal element tends to further refine and degas the alloy during melting which results in improved properties, or (4) the third metal addition acts as an absorbing media for adsorbed and dissolved oxygen in the alloy. It is theorized that the third metal addition is converted to a volatile oxide which inhibits oxygen absorption into the alloy. Thus the ductility of the alloy is maintained and the high rhodium alloy may be welded and used in high temperature service applications.
- posite structure comprising different alloys having the same in a platinum-high rhodium content alloy, it is desirable to constituents but different proportions.

- rhodium is a good hardener for a platinum rhodium (up to 60 percent) in a platinum-rhodium-X ternary containing alloy, i.e. it is a good solid solution strengthener system may be used in the tip section to reduce the creep and forms a continuous solid solution.

- a stress was applied to the alloys of each example in order to determine their rupture life, percent elongation and creep rate.
- the control was an alloy consisting of 75 percent platinum and percent rhodium. When the rhodium content was increased and the addition of various amounts of molybdenum made thereto, changes in the measured properties were observed.
- Example I showed a large increase in rupture life, elongation and creep rate when compared to the control whereas example ll showed a slight increase in rupture life and a slight decrease in elongation and creep rate.
- a great degree of flexibility is provided in the various alloys, so that during fabrication of an apparatus. for example of a bushing used at high service temperatures, a single alloy or combinations thereof may be selected, depending upon the specific properties desired.
- Composite bushing structures were fabricated from the platinum-rhodium-molybdenum ternary alloy systems of this invention, wherein the compositions for the sidewalls, tip plate, and tips were as follows, expressed in weight percents:
- a high temperature alloy for the sidewalls comprising platinum 75-85 percent by weight, rhodium l5-25 percent by weight, and a trace of molybdenum; a high temperature alloy for the particular sidewall comprising platinum 40-60 percent by weight, rhodium 40-60 percent by weight, and up to 1.0 percent by weight of molybdenum, said molybdenum being present in an amount sufficient to increase the ductility of the alloy; and 3.
- a high temperature alloy for the hollow projections comprising platinum -80 percent by weight, rhodium 20-30 percent by weight, and a trace of molybdenum; wherein the molybdenum content of said alloys are present in amounts sufficient to maintain the resistivities of the alloys at the same magnitude when the feeder is in use at high temperatures.
