Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Heat treatment leads primarily to a reduction in the transverse strength and to an increase in the plasticity of rolled boralumin.

  2. 2.

    The protective action of the B4C coating on the boron fibers manifests itself at annealing temperatures above 550°C; this enables us to recommend use of the AD1-B/B4C composition material for service at elevated temperatures.
