Design of Silicide-Strengthened Nb–Si–Cr–(Mo) alloys for additive manufacturing by Alice Perrin, Patxi Fernandez-Zelaia, Chris Ledford, Yan-Ru Lin, Ellen Berry, Ryan Dehoff, Michael Kirka, Ying Yang

“…The weld processing was found to produce fine-grained microstructures in each alloy with fine-scale intermetallics uniformly distributed among a body-centered cubic Nb matrix. Microstructural refinement and hardness were found to increase with weld velocity; one alloy reached its highest hardness of approximately 16 GPa before the brittleness at higher velocities became detrimental. …”
