THE TANTALUM-COLUMBIUM ALLOY SYSTEM
TL;DRAbstract
The tantaium-niobium alloy system was investigated by means of x-ray, electrical resistance and metallographic methods. The constitution diagram is an unbroken series of solid solutions. No evidence of a solid transformation was found in any of the alloys. The solidus line rises smoothly from the melting point of niobium, 2420 deg C (4388 deg F), to the melting point obtnined for tantaium, 2940 deg C (5324 deg F), and the liquidus was found to follow quite closely the path taken by the solidus. Experimental results are given and equipment is described. (auth)
