The paper reflects on the development of Nb-silicide based alloys vis-à-vis property goals
and compares them with refractory-complex-concentrated-alloys (RCCAs) for their density …

Nb-Si based alloys are considered as a potential candidates to substitute for Ni-based super
alloys. However, its poor mechanical properties and high temperature oxidation resistance …

The effects of Mo, Ti and/or Hf additions on the isothermal oxidation behaviour of Nb–Si–Cr–
Al-based in situ composites in static air at 800° C and 1200° C were studied for the as-cast …

The Metal And Silicide Composite (MASC), having the composition Nb–25Ti–8Hf–2Cr–2Al–
16Si, at.%, was studied in static oxidising condition in air at 815, 1100 and 1200° C. Phases …

The effects of alloying on the microstructures, solidification path, phase stability and
oxidation kinetics of Nbss/Nb5Si3 base in situ composites of the Nb–Ti–Si–Al–Cr–Mo–Hf …

Abstract Eight multi-component Nb–Si based ultrahigh temperature alloys were prepared by
vacuum non-consumable arc melting. The effects of Hf, B and Cr alloying on the phase …

The effects of alloying with Zr on the microstructure, mechanical and oxidation properties of
Nb-Ti-Si based ultrahigh temperature alloys have been investigated in this study. The …

The phase stability and microstructures of Nbss/Nb5Si3 based in situ composites alloyed
with Hf and Sn have been investigated. The Nb5Si3 silicide in the β and γ forms was the …

This study deals with the Nb–niobium silicide-based composites developed by the hot-
