## Summary

The University of Strathclyde is initiating a tender process for the supply of High Temperature Material, specifically targeting suppliers of non-ECSC ferro-alloys. This procurement is categorised under goods and is currently in the planning stage, with a formal notice expected to be published by 7 June 2021. The requirement is vital for producing materials suitable for an isothermal forging vacuum chamber operating at temperatures up to 1300°C, with significant mechanical loads. Interested parties can submit their expressions of interest through the relevant procurement channels in Glasgow, UK, at the address 40 George Street, G1 1QE.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in high-performance materials, particularly those that can provide molybdenum-based alloys or equivalent alternatives. Companies with expertise in thermal and mechanical load qualities in manufacturing environments would be well-suited to compete. The procurement offers a chance to engage with a key educational institution and could lead to further collaborations within the advanced manufacturing sector in Scotland.

## Notice

The National Manufacturing Institute of Scotland (NMIS) is seeking notes of interest for the supply and delivery of High Temperature Materials such as Molybdenum-Halfnium-Carbon (MHC), other such variants may be considered.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The National Manufacturing Institute of Scotland (NMIS) is seeking notes of interest for suppliers who are able to supply and deliver the required High Temperature Material. A requirement has emerged for the provision of a high temperature material for the manufacture of an isothermal die stack capable of operating within an isothermal forging vacuum chamber at a temperature of 13000C and loads of up to 2000 tons. This material should take the form of a molybdenum based alloy which can withstand such temperatures and should be capable of operating within the temperature range of 9000C and 13000C in a vacuum or inert gas atmosphere. Approximately dimensions are in the region of 400mm in diameter and 200mm in height. MHC is one such material which could be proposed. Other variants of such materials may be considered if deemed suitable. The proposed material should possess outstanding thermal and creep resistance and should also be capable of withstanding extreme thermal and mechanical loads in service. NMIS may hold information sessions with suppliers who note an interest in this requirement
