Abstract
Effects of Aluminium and Niobium contents are, especially, examined on tensile properties, on creep strength and on oxidation resistance. It is shown that a high Al/Nb ratio is required for a good oxidation resistance, but is associated with a loss of ductility. Reducing Nb results in a decrease of creep strength that can be compensated by zirconium and/or molybdenum additions which improve the creep resistance significantly without impairing ductility or yield stress.
