Mechanical behaviors of WZC at different temperatures.

(a) Flexural stress-strain curves of WZC tested at different temperatures, note that values larger than a flexural strain of 15% are not accurate because of the limited bending angle of the machine. (b) Flexural strain of the tested samples versus temperature, DBTT is about 100 °C. (c) Temperature dependence of the yield strength (YS) (from 3-point bending test) of the WZC plate in comparison with available literature data. The YS of WZC is the highest among the all reported bulk W alloys. (d) Optical images of WZC samples after tested at different temperatures. e, Engineering stress-strain curves of WZC tested at different temperatures from tensile test.
