Abstract
This paper presents some of the results obtained in an on-going study of NiAl alloys for potential high temperature applications. Alloys were prepared by powder metallurgy techniques. Flow stress values at slow strain rates and high temperatures were measured. Some promising ternary alloying additions (Hf, Ta and Nb) have been identified. The mechanism of strengthening in alloys containing these additions appears to be a form of particle dislocation interaction. Interesting effects of grain size and stoichiometry in binary alloys are also presented.
