The strongest Cu-Ta-Li alloy developed to date exhibits outstanding strength and stability, making it ideal for advanced ...

A new study designed a copper-tantalum-based superalloy (with added lithium) that can operate up to 800 degrees Celsius (1472 ...

Such are the general conditions which should be followed in making alloys. Copper melts at 1920 Fah. ; zinc at 700 Fah. ; lead at 590 Fah. ; tin at 450 Fah. ; cast-iron at 2100 Fah. A dull red ...

they do not seem to have any strength—they bend like a piece of lead wire. The common alloys employed for making journal boxes are much dearer than a brass composed of zinc 50, and copper 56 ...

Researchers from the U.S. Army Research Laboratory (ARL) and Lehigh University have developed a nanostructured copper alloy that could redefine high-temperature materials for aerospace ...

Lead-free solder alloys have been around for as long as people have done soldering, with sources dating back about 5,000 years. Most of these alloys were combinations like copper-silver or silver ...

Colorized scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) image showing a Cu3Li precipitate in the Cu-Ta-Li alloy. The orange-colored features are primarily Cu atoms in the alloy matrix, while ...

A new copper alloy, a Cu-3Ta-0.5Li nanocrystalline alloy, exhibits remarkable resistance to coarsening and creep deformation, even at temperatures near its melting point. The orange-colored ...

(Nanowerk News) A team of researchers from Arizona State University, the U.S. Army Research Laboratory (ARL), Lehigh University and Louisiana State University has developed a groundbreaking ...
