Material properties of Ni-Cr-Al alloy and design of a 4 GPa class non-magnetic high-pressure cell

The Ni-Cr-Al Russian alloy was prepared. Its magnetic and mechanical properties were better than those of MP35N alloy. We fabricated the a piston-cylinder-type hybrid high-pressure cell using the Ni-Cr-Al alloy. It has been found that the maximum working pressure can be repeatedly raised to 3.5 GPa at T = 2 K without any difficulties.
