Abstract
From the early work on the gas turbine to today’s efforts to obtain materials for service at over 2000°F, the processing of high-temperature alloys has been a tough, up-hill fight. The AIME High-Temperature Alloys Committee reviewed this progress at the Annual Meeting in February, and the Journal of Metals here presents three of the papers from this session.
