Abstract: A nickel-based superalloy includes, in atomic percentages, 13% to 21% chromium, 15% to 26% cobalt, 4% to 8% aluminum, 4.5% to 8% titanium, 8% to 18% iron, boron in an atomic percentage less than or equal to 0.5% or no boron, carbon in an atomic percentage less than or equal to 1% or no carbon, at least one additional element selected from molybdenum, tungsten, tantalum and niobium, a total atomic content of the at least one additional element being less than or equal to 1.5% or no such at least one additional element, the remainder being nickel and unavoidable impurities, with a sum of the atomic percentages of aluminum and titanium being comprised between 8.5% and 15%. The novel superalloy composition has a limited density and exhibiting, when hot, good mechanical properties as well as good resistance to oxidation and corrosion.

Abstract: Wet-laid nonwoven webs having mechanical reinforcement properties are provided by employing unpulped vegetable fiber bundles as the predominant fiber component. The unpulped fiber bundles have a modulus of elasticity of about 2-5×106 psi and a chopped fiber length of about 25 mm. The fibers are cordage fibers including sisal, abaca, henequen, kenaf and jute. Composites of the unpulped fiber webs with cellulosic and spunbonded sheets find application as thermoformed vehicle interior trim products.
