Abstract

Molybdenum sheets (trade name: TEM) having elongated coarse-grain structures were developed. The grain structures were controlled by hot and cold rolling under high total reduction ratio (εt) and recrystallization treatment at 2070K of sintered Mo body with lmass% of La2O3.The recrystallization temperatures of La2O3-doped Mo sheets which were examined in terms of Vickers hardness and optical microstructure were higher than those of pure-Mo and TZM (Mo-0.56Ti-0.086Zr-0.016C by mass%) sheets. In particular, that of the La2O3-doped Mo sheet with high εt of 99.1 % was about 1830K, 400K higher than that of the pure-Mo sheet.The deformation resistance of TEM sheets having elongated coarse-grain structures, which was examined by sag tests at 1470K to 2070K, were superior to those of the pure-Mo and TZM sheets with equiaxial grains. In particular, deformation resistance was improved at aspect ratios (L/W) exceeding 20. Sag value of TEM sheets with L/W=150 after sag test for 36ks at 2070K was less than 1/100 that of pure-Mo sheet and less than 1/60 of TZM sheet.The shock resistance of TEM sheets with L/W=150 at room temperature, which was examined by the falling-weight impact test, was superior to that of the pure-Mo sheet with equiaxial grains.
