    This alloy achieves solid solution strengthening by adding Hf, Ti and Zr alloy elements, among which Zr has a significant strengthening effect, and Hf and trace amounts of W mainly improve high-temperature properties.<\/p>

    PANWAR S S, PRASAD K, UMASANKAR PATRO T and others studied the tensile properties and fracture behavior of C-103 alloy in the temperature range between room temperature (RT) and 1200 \u2103 (see the figure below), between room temperature and 1200 \u2103 The stress-strain curve of the alloy showed jagged fluctuations, and the dynamic strain aging (DSA) phenomenon occurred. The temperature change also has a great influence on the fracture mechanism of the alloy, that is, from room temperature to 500 \u2103, 600 to 900 \u2103, and 1000 to 1200 \u2103. The fracture mechanisms are ductile fracture, cleavage fracture and intergranular fracture respectively.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
