KEY: (1) N/m2; (2) [kgf/mm 2 ]; (3) Steel Khl8N9T.<br />

It has a small thermal neutron capture cross section (1.1 b/atcm);<br />

high melting point, high strength characteristics, <strong>and</strong> plasticity;<br />

comparatively low specific weight; high chemical stability with<br />

respect to aggressive media, for example, lithium.<br />

Niobium alloys have even higher strength properties.<br />

Small<br />

additions <strong>of</strong> zirconium, molybdenum, tungsten <strong>and</strong> other elements<br />

appreciably increase the rupture-resistance <strong>of</strong> niobium.<br />

Table A.3 presents some properties <strong>of</strong> niobium <strong>and</strong> its alloys.<br />

<strong>The</strong> content <strong>of</strong> the main additive is indicated by the digit in front<br />

<strong>of</strong> *he formula <strong>of</strong> the element. For example, lZr is a niobium alloy<br />

with 1% zirconium. <strong>The</strong> effect <strong>of</strong> temperature on 10-hour rupture<br />
