Abstract

A system for determining the creep behavior of refractory metals at temperatures up to 1900°C and at environmental test pressures of less than 1×10⁻⁸ Torr are described. Results are presented which show that contamination of a tantalum alloy test specimen is inhibited when tested at 1370°C and 1×10⁻⁸ Torr.
