    Dispersion strengthening usually design in nuclear power plants , hypersonic aircraft , and space vehicles are continually seeking materials that have high strength at elevated temperature . These requirements have been met in part by the precipitation-strengthened “supperalloys” that are suitable for application up to around 1800°F . The refractory metals , tungsten , molybdenum , columbium , and tantalum , may sometimes be used when the service temperature exceeds the useful temperature of the
