Abstract The possibility of reducing the linear thermal expansion coefficient (LTEC) of heavy tungsten-base alloys by replacing the binder by one possessing Invar properties is studied. Use of Invar type alloys of the Fe-Ni and Fe-Co-Cr types as binders makes it possible to prepare heavy alloys with lower LTEC than for the base (tungsten). Tungsten dissolution in the binder is the main factor which restricts the LTEC of heavy alloys with an Invar binder.
