Description of the Thermoelement made from a Molybdenum‐Rhenium alloy
Rhenium and molybdenum are refractory metals with high melting points. They exhibit satisfactory ductility and strength. The standard molybdenum‐rhenium alloy contains 47.5% rhenium and is used in numerous industrial applications. The addition of either 47.5% or 41% rhenium enhances ductility, weldability and formability. The alloy retains the physical high‐temperature characteristics of rhenium and the mechanical properties of molybdenum. Rolling deformation may achieve up to a 90% reduction in cross‐section, while ductility is maintained after exposure to elevated temperatures.
