  • Patent number: 4590035
    Abstract: A high-hardness heat-resistant alloy comprising 13-17 wt % of Cr, 2-6 wt % of Al, 0.1-8 wt % of Mo, 1.5-3.5 wt % of B, 0.5-3 wt % of Ti, and 4-7 wt % of Co, the remaining components of the alloy being Ni and inevitable impurities. The alloy has high hardness and high strength at high temperatures and is therefore very suitable for use as a deposit or build-up welding material for exhaust valves in large low-speed diesel engines.

  • Patent number: 4478791
    Abstract: A method for achieving both improved high strength and improved ductility in intermediate phases is provided. The method, briefly stated, comprises the steps of providing a melt whose composition substantially corresponds to that of a preselected intermetallic phase having a crystal structure of the L1.sub.2 type, such as nickel aluminide, modified with from about 0.01 to 2.5 atomic percent boron, and rapidly solidifying the melt at a cooling rate of at least about 10.sup.3 .degree. C./second to form a solid body, the principal phase of which is of the L1.sub.2 type crystal structure in either its ordered or disordered state.
