Abstract
Mo-Si-B materials consisting of a Mo(Si) solid solution and the intermetallic phases Mo3Si and Mo5SiB2 (T2) were prepared by mechanical alloying (MA) as the crucial step of a powdermetallurgical process. After consolidation via an industrial processing route (cold isostatic pressing, sintering, hot isostatic pressing) the resulting microstructures of Mo-Si-B alloys up to 45% of intermetallic phases reveal a continuous α-Mo matrix with embedded, homogeneously distributed intermetallic particles. Clearly, increasing the amount of Mo solid solution reduces the BDTT (demonstrated by three point bending tests between room temperature and 1200°C), however, values below 900°C could not be obtained due to grain boundary embrittlement caused by Si segregation. Alloying with Zr was proven by Auger analysis in Mo-Si solid solutions to reduce this segregation. Therefore, in a second trial Zr as a (micro-) alloying element was added. The influence of microalloying on ductility and strength is comparatively discussed with reference compositions Mo-6Si-5B and Mo-9Si-8B.
