ABSTRACT:
Intermetallic compounds or alloys comprising niobium with and from 10 to 28 atomic percent titanium and from 14 to 17.5 atomic percent aluminum characterized by very high temperature melting points, high compressive strength at room temperature, higher room temperature compressive strength after annealing, machineable with conventional tooling, a B2 crystal structure in the as-cast condition, a two-phase microstructure in the annealed condition consisting of a B2 matrix and a second phase with the A15 crystal structure, an expected low value for coefficient of thermal expansion and susceptible to fabrication into single crystals.
