NiCrM (M = W, Mo, V) ternary alloy tapes as cube-textured substrates for second-generation superconducting cables

Development of the deformation texture and recrystallization processes have been studied in some ternary nickel-based alloys of the Ni-Cr-W, Ni-Cr-Mo, and Ni-Cr-V systems. An optimum relationship between the amounts of the alloying elements upon the combined alloying of nickel has been found. Problems of the optimization of the regimes of recrystallization annealing have been considered, which are related to an increase in the temperature of the onset of primary recrystallization in ternary nickel alloys after deformation by rolling to large reductions. An analysis of mechanical and magnetic properties of all the alloys has been performed.
