Non-Proprietary Research Projects of the Center for the Space Processing of Engineering Materials. Annual Report, November 1, 1986-October 31, 1987

摘要

This second annual report of the Center for the Space Processing of Engineering Materials covers work done in the period 1 October 1986 to 31 October 1987. Included are reports on the following: The Effect of Microgravity on the Microstructure of Directionally Solidified Aluminum Alloys; Containerless Processing of Titanium-Aluminum Alloys; Deep Undercooling of Ni and Fe Aluminides; Ultra Purification of Niobium by Containerless Processing; Containerless Processing and Directional Solidification of Platinum Group Refractory Metal In-Situ Composite Materials; Containerless Processing of Titanium Alloys; Effect of Solidification Mode on Structure-Property Relationships of Lead-Base Immiscible Alloys (Pb-Cu, Pb-Al, Pb-Zn, Pb-Ni); Dispersion Strengthened Metal Alloys; Containerless Processing of Nb Based Alloys; and Oxide Strengthened High Temperature Alloys in the Nickel Chromium System.
