Abstract
A study was made of the effects of large amounts of molybdenum, tungsten, and vanadium and combinations of these alloying elements on the high-temperature rupture strength of a 0.18 pet C, 0.85 pet Mn, 0.48 pet Si steel which was oil quenched from at least 2100°F and tempered to a hardness of 250 Brinell. Both high and low testing temperatures were considered. The results were correlated with the effectiveness of the alloying elements in the form of carbides and in solid solution. The tempering behavior of the alloys was also studied.
