Abstract
An improved internal friction technique was used to study the relaxation processes in pure tungsten and the following alloys: commercially doped tungsten (218W), W-1 pct ThO2, 218W-3 pct Re, and 218W-20 pct Re. Internal friction experiments were performed on worked and recrystallized specimens in the temperature range of 300° to 3000°K. The effects of impurities and alloying additions on the damping and recrystallization behavior of tungsten are demonstrated. It is further shown that the internal friction curves can conveniently be used to determine the temperature of primary and secondary recrystallization. The important effect of impurities on the microstructure and high temperature strength is also revealed by the temperature dependence of shear modulus.
