All niobium-based alloys are solid solution strengthened alloys. The most commonly used alloying elements are zirconium, titanium, hafnium, tantalum and tungsten.
The alloy Nb-1Zr can be used in nuclear applications because it has a low thermal neutron absorption cross section, good corrosion resistance and good resistance to radiation damage. It is widely used in the liquid metal disposal system at a temperature of 980-1205.
Nb-1Zr can withstand the corrosion of sodium vapor under high temperature and high pressure, so it is used for the production of sodium vapor lamps on highways.
The improved Nb-1Zr contains 1% C and is used in liquid alkali metal containers in space nuclear power systems.
Alloys C-129 Y (Nb-10W-10Hf-0.1Y), FS-85 (Nb-28Ta-11W-0.8Zr) and Cb-752 (Nb-10W-2.5Zr), have better than C-103 High temperature tensile strength and creep strength, but also maintain good processability, coatability and thermal stability. They are used for wing leading edges, anterior vertebral bodies on hypersonic aircraft, rockets, nozzles, gas turbines and reentry Guidance mechanism for atmospheric vehicles.
The basic niobium-titanium alloy.
