Re Addition Improves Charpy Impact of Modified Tungsten Materials

Test temperature dependences of absorbed energy of Charpy impact tests of KLST specimens1 image

It was shown that the dispersion of K-bubbles could not directly affect the Charpy impact performance of the modified tungsten materials below 1000 °C, although the improvement of the impact performance by grain refinement induced by K-doping was significant. In the case of W-3% Re(H) and K-doped W-3% Re(H) plates, the effect of Re addition broadly consists of grain refinement effects caused by the inhibition of grain boundary movement by solute Re, and solid solution strengthening and softening effects caused by solute Re.

The ductile transfer temperature (DBTT) of modified tungsten materials can be evaluated by several test methods, such as tensile testing, bending testing, Charpy impact testing and fracture toughness testing. The DBTT is highly dependent on the test method, strain rate and specimen shape. Researchers have used Charpy impact and tensile tests to evaluate DBTT.
