Abstract

Abstract A compound material for temperatures up to about 1250 DEG C. or 1350 DEG C., respectively, and a method for producing the same, are disclosed, including a pair of joined layers one of which is a corrosion- and high-temperature-resistant alloy, the other layer consisting of a refractory material with high strength at high temperatures. The layer having the weaker mechanical strength at high temperatures is thinner than the other layer, the ratio of layer thickness preferably being between 1:5 and 1:2. A further alloy layer may be provided on the opposite side of the refractory layer, thereby to define a three-layer laminate. A thin layer of diffusion barrier material, such as platinum or palladium, may be provided between the refractory and alloy layers. The method for producing the laminate includes the step of detonating an explosive layer to exposively clad the alloy layer on to the refractory layer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 147 words
A method for producing a compound material for operating temperatures of from about 1250° to about 1350° C., which comprises the steps of (a) arranging adjacent generally parallel with and spaced from a layer of refractory material a layer of a high-temperature-resistant super alloy selected from the group consisting of nickel, iron and chromium base alloys; and (b) detonating a layer of an explosive charge adjacent the alloy layer to explosively plate the same upon the layer of refractory material, thereby to produce a joined laminate including a base plate formed of refractory material and a parallel coat plate formed of a high-temperature-resistant base alloy, the layer of explosive charge being so dimensioned and arranged as to produce a collision velocity (V K ) of alloy layer of from about 2700 to about 3500 m/sec. and a collision angle (β) of from about 15° to about 25°.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 147 words
A method for producing a compound material for operating temperatures of from about 1250° to about 1350° C., which comprises the steps of (a) arranging adjacent generally parallel with and spaced from a layer of refractory material a layer of a high-temperature-resistant super alloy selected from the group consisting of nickel, iron and chromium base alloys; and (b) detonating a layer of an explosive charge adjacent the alloy layer to explosively plate the same upon the layer of refractory material, thereby to produce a joined laminate including a base plate formed of refractory material and a parallel coat plate formed of a high-temperature-resistant base alloy, the layer of explosive charge being so dimensioned and arranged as to produce a collision velocity (V K ) of alloy layer of from about 2700 to about 3500 m/sec. and a collision angle (β) of from about 15° to about 25°.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method defined in claim 1, wherein the material of the refractory layer is in deep drawable condition.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 36 words
The method defined in claim 1, and further including the preliminary step, prior to the detonating step, of reducing the hardness of the refractory layer, the alloy layers, for example or all of them, by annealing.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 31 words
The method defined in claim 1, and further including the preliminary step, prior to the detonating step, of removing oxide layers from the surface of the layers adjacent to each other.

Claim 10
Dependent Claim 27 words
The method as defined in claim 8, wherein the layer of refractory material is heated to a temperature of from about 300° C. to about 500° C.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 19 words
