DiveDeEP: Identifikation der Mikrostruktur-Eigenschaftsbeziehungen dispersionsverstärkter Hochleistungswerkstoffe
Laufzeit: 01.05.2024 bis 30.04.2027
Ziel des Vorhabens ist die Entwicklung und Qualifizierung von dispersoidverstärkten hochtemperaturfesten Legierungen für den Einsatz als potenzielle Strukturwerkstoffe in der Luft- und Raumfahrt. Effiziensteigerung durch erhöhte Betriebstemperaturen sowie verringertes Gewicht führen zu einem verbesserten Wirkungsgrad von Turbinen .
