Material Specification for ; [Y(Dy)-Ni-B-C]
Process: Melt Processed
Notes: "Samples were prepared by the standard arc-melting technique. The constituent element, R(99.9%), Ni(99.99%), B(99.7%) and the graphite flakes, were melted in a water cooled copper hearth in flowing argon atmosphere. Weight losses if any, were compensated for during the melting. The resulting buttons were turned over and melted several times in order to ensure homogeneity. These buttons were then wrapped in tantalum foil and annealed in evacuated and sealed quartz tubes at 975-1050 °C for 12-16 h."
