Preliminary Investigation of the Effect of Surface Treatment on the Strength of a Titanium Carbide - 30 Percent Nickel Base Cermet
Specimens of a nickel-bonded titanium carbide cermet were given the following surface treatments: (1) grinding, (2) lapping, (3) blast cleaning, (4) acid roughening, (5) oxidizing, and (6) oxidizing and refinishing. Room-temperature modulus-of-rupture and impact strength varied with the different surface treatments. Considerable strength losses resulted from the following treatments: (1) oxidation at 1600 F for 100 hours, (2) acid roughening, and (3) severe grinding with 60-grit silicon carbide abrasive. The strength loss after oxidation was partially recovered by grit blasting or diamond grinding

NACA Technical Notes
Note presenting an investigation to determine the effects of composition and homogenization heat treatments on the hardness and tensile properties of cast alloys of the NiAl intermetallic phase. The phase exists over a wide range of composition with stoichiometric NiAl at 31.5 percent aluminum. Results regarding the effects of the casting method and mechanical properties of the homogenized NiAl phase are provided
