Conclusions
-
1.
The mechanical properties of alloy IMV1 in the hot extruded condition and after cold plastic deformation change little with prolonged holding (6 months) at room temperature.
-
2.
Heating of the hot extruded rods at 100°C leads to lowering of the strength by 1–1.5 kg/mm2 and an increase of elongation.
-
3.
Heating of the cold worked alloy for 200 h at 60°C reduces the strength and ductility slightly, while heating at 100°C reduces them considerably. However, the ultimate and yield strengths remain 2 and 6 kg/mm2 higher, respectively, than for the hot extruded alloy.
