https://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/nasas-new-3d-printed-superalloy-can-take-the-heat I searched for the composition, which I found in an open access Nature article https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-05893-0 Ni bal, 33 Co, 29 Cr, 3 W, 1.5 Re, 0.75 Nb, 0.25 Ti, 0.3 Al, 0.05 C; Nb and Ti...

Industry standard right now is a copper alloy (usually an aluminum bronze) inner liner to promote heat transfer to the coolant channels and the walls of the channels and outer liner are usually made of an INCONEL alloy, usually either 625 or 718. But INCONEL is VERY expensive and heavy. The...

I looked for solutions on the internet but all of them had given mass and looked for volume , but that isn't given here. I tried something like subtracting the two weights or trying to find mass from the weight but i can't find the correct awnser

I found the density of carbon and iron: ρ_fe=7.87 g/〖cm〗^3 ρ_c=2.26 g/〖cm〗^3 Using equation 2: atom density of iron and carbon N_fe = 8.48e22 cm^-3 N_c = 1.13e23 cm^-3 Using equation 1: macroscopic scatter and absorption cross sections of iron and carbon Σ_a,fe = .217 cm^-1...

I ask the foundry to cast nickel alloys and I took a piece metal to do a chemical test. The element composition of the nickel alloy is Ni 70% Cr 12% Fe 1.2% Mo 2.5%...so far they all are in the allowable range. But I found the alloy also contains W 0.004% ! Is this the normal condition ? ? I...

Do you have any information's about how to calculate the bias spring or the Force needed ? the current necessary to heat the SMA spring for a 4mm stroke ? Thank you

This is a fun one, sort of! I am working on a singing saw that can be amplified with a regular magnetic pick up, from an electric guitar. I made a blade from laser cut1095 blue tempered spring steel (0.042" thick). It sounded great, but after a few months of service, the blade cracked. What is a...

Which alloy is better resistant to corrosion and less easy to get scratched and the paint fall? For kitchen cupboard handle. Thanks a lot.

Also how bullet proof is it? I know it is a titanium nickel alloy so I’m guessing it may be strong with the titanium in it.

What could prevent the discontinuous yield (upper and lower) points during a tensile test on a low alloy steel A706 grade? Thanks.

I'm trying to learn more about this alloy and there is scant little on Google. William Godfrey Lecomber created a copper alloy for use in frictionless bearings and apparently huge amounts were sold to America and South Africa. WGL called the alloy Cantaba and named his farm in Ruthin (which he...

I have been preforming experiments to study the diffusion of Hydrogen through Molybdenum. According to Sievert's law diatomic molecules would diffuse as atoms. But according to my experiments I notice that the flux of hydrogen is directly proportional to the pressure of hydrogen and not to the...

Hello everyone I've got a youtube channel with the science behind games. And because of that, I'm in search for an alloy with the following properties: - It needs to be an alloy of at least three metals - At least one of them must have a greenish flame color, a bluish flame color, and a red...

Hi, I recently started studying materials science and I am looking at a particular alloy of Copper Zirconium. I have identified a B1 phase and they call it a CuZr phase, which I 'm finding rather confusing. Initially I thought that CuZr meant that each unit cell in the lattice was composed of...

The washing machine stopped spinning, so I dismantled it. Here's what I found: I'm thinking it might have become a big battery, as the steel drive shaft was embedded in the alloy drive bracket, which in turn had 6 studs bolting it to the stainless steel drum. It was all enclosed in the sealed...

Hello everybody, I am looking for a disgestion procedure of Pb-alloy, so that we can measure the elements with ICP-OES. Pb should be removed, that it doesn't contaminate the system. So far we used HCl for digestion, but the results weren't very good. Elements of interest are: Sn Sb Bi Cu Cd As...

Hello! I am looking for a eutectic (liquid) alloy that includes Strontium and Lithium at or near room temperature. Does anyone have an idea of where to look for it? Thanks!

I'm trying to understand the effect on a metal alloy of UV light (diode or laser) pulsing at about 1MHz. I am assuming that the stirring of atoms will generate heat, possibly moving the alloy to its eutectic point (depending on the alloy) and in particular to atomic motion. Can anyone...

We can find differential of alloy and composite. MMC is came from 2 differential of metal, one from it aren't melting same as producing alloy. but there are might produce new reaction. ex: C with Fe, the name is carbon steel. the nano-composite just too, but the particle aren't big, and the size...

I am trying to locate HK31A (magnesium thorium alloy) for a research project. I have tried my usual suppliers but they came up empty handed. Calls were then placed to the major magnesium alloy manufacturers (e.g. Magnesium Elektron) but to no avail. Upon further investigation the manufacturers...

Hello. I got two questions. 1. Why does aluminium become more ductile if one rapidly quench it. 2. Why does aluminium alloys(not heat treatable alloys) become more ductile when it is rapidly cooled from solubility temperature. I have read through my notes from lectures, but could not find...

If you have a knife edge (dual sided at 45°, 1/8" thick, and you want as little deformation as possible under a 50 lb. load, what would be the ideal alloy? Harden steel? Tungsten? High carbon steel? Application: two point guitar tremolo, total tension being around 100 lbs. Looking...

I would like to identify a mysteriously dense metal I have in my possession. I bought a big box of engineering bits, along with a lathe, and found what I thought were High Speed Steel tool blanks which felt very heavy. I worked out the relative density and it is an amazing 16.97. The material is...

I found three different type of alloy. 1. Not shiny or 2. Shiny or or What is the the material composition of these alloys?

I am looking for an alloy which has its protons in a randomized spin state? I.e. not affected by gravity. Any suggestions? Thank you.

A friend of mine is working with shape memory alloys and he's got one that is behaving strangely. At "low" temperatures a "fresh" solution heat treated sample will form martensite upon cooling, and austenite upon heating as expected. Heat and cool all you want and you get the transformation...

Okay I was trolling youtube (I know its a horrible habit I have that keeps me from sleeping at night) and I came across this BBC video. Its only 47 seconds but it BRIEFLY describes a material that can Focus and concentrate electromagnetic fields and I can't find anythng else on the web, any...

You hear it over and over again, that solder or braze alloy will flow towards the heat. Another way of saying this is it flows towards hotter metal and away from colder metal. I've done enough soldering to see that it certainly appears to be true. But I've never heard, nor have I found, a...

Is it possible to make an alloy with all possible stable (non-radioactive) metals? I've googled around, and I couldn't find one, and also couldn't find a reason why it hasn't been made. If its not possible, what is the reason behind it?

Hi, What is the difference between alloy compounds and solid solutions I understand so far that solid solutions are homogeneous in composition, which must mean that one, two or more different atoms have same crystal packing structure when combined to form a solid solution.

Homework Statement Germanium forms a substitutional solid solution with silicon. Compute the number of germanium atoms per cubic centimeter for a germanium-silicon alloy that contains 15 wt% Ge and 85 wt% Si. The densities of pure germanium and silicon are 5.32 and 2.33 g/cm3...

Hi, I am an an artist hoping that you scientists can kindly help me with some advice. I am making a simple liquid mirror as part of a project about reflected image. It will spin and stop and spin and stop etc. I have made a polyester resin parabola as a receptical (so that I can use less...

Why does an alloy solidify over a range of temperature unlike a pure metal. Consider Al-17Si alloy. Growth of primary Si after undercooling does not take place at liquidus temperature but temperature keeps on decreasing until it reaches eutectic arrest temperature. I am not able to understand...

Name of the steel alloy?!? Hi, can someone please tell me how can I find out the name of an alloy if I have its composition? Here are the percentages of each element inside: Composition in % (min ;max) C ( - ; 0.05) Si...
