Conclusions
-
1.
The type of aluminum oxide has a great effect on the loss of strength of nickel alloys with aluminum oxide. The γ-Al2O3 considerably increases the strength of the alloy. Possibly in this case the bond between the matrix and the oxide particles is stronger than the bond between nickel and α-Al2O3. Further experiments are needed to determine the type of bond between nickel and aluminum oxide.

2.
It is assumed that a high degree of cold-plastic deformation leads to the loss of strength of nickel+γ-Al2O3 at the same temperature as the loss of strength of nickel+α-Al2O3 because of the very different deformation capacities of nickel and the γ-Al2O3.
