Abstract

Melt spinning was used to rapidly quench V2CrA11-xBx and Ti3Nb6Mo3Si4 alloys. Melt spinning had very little effect on the crystal structure of the V2CrA11-xBx alloys. However, a new (NbTiMo)3 Si A–15 phase was found by rapid quenching of the Ti3Nb6Mo3Si4 alloys; the lattice parameter was 5.08 Å. Melt spinning increased the Vickers microhardness values of the V2CrA11-xBx alloys from 500 to 750, and of the Ti3Nb6Mo3Si4 alloys from 1000 to as high as 1675. Melt spinning increased the superconducting transition temperature of the Ti3Nb6Mo3Si4 alloys from 1.9 to 3.4K.
