Abstract
The present invention relates to a density-optimized and high temperature-resistant alloy based on molybdenum-sili-con-boron, wherein vanadium is added to the base alloy in order to reduce the density.
Claims16
A molybdenum alloy with 5 to 25 at % silicon, 0.5 to 25 at % boron, and 20 to 40 at % vanadium as well as the remainder of molybdenum, wherein the proportion of molybdenum is at least 40 at %,
- wherein the molybdenum alloy has a molybdenum-vanadium mixed crystal matrix and at least one silicide phase distributed therein, and the density of the molybdenum alloy is less than 8 g/cm3, and
- wherein at least one silicide phase is selected from (Mo,V)3Si, (Mo,V)5SiB2, and (Mo,V)5Si3.
