Physical Metallurgy of Refactory Metals and Alloys
Properties of tungsten-rhenium alloys
- Luna metals suggests 3% Re improves the tensile strength of the alloy; Concept Alloys has 26% Re.
- This paper mesured 20% Re, with a strength of 1.9 GPa; actual drawn tungsten wire has a strength of 3.3 GPa.
- Drawing and cold working greatly affects metal, as always!
