Fracture and fatigue resistance of Mo-Si-B alloys for ultrahigh-temperature structural applications

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 21 - Publication in refereed journalpeer-review

Abstract

Fracture and fatigue properties are examined for a series of Mo–Mo3Si–Mo5SiBalloys, which utilize a continuous α-Mo matrix to achieve unprecedented room-temperature fracture resistance (>20 MPa√m). Mechanistically, these properties are explained in terms of toughening by crack trapping and crack bridging by the more ductile α-Mo phase.
