Abstract: Refractory metallic materials for application in Gas Cooled High Temperature Reactors are age-hardened nickel or iron base alloys. To control their behaviour and to adapt it to realistic load conditions, these materials have to be subjected to suitable informing tests and characterized. In the past few years, interference layer metallography has proved to be a highly flexible characterization procedure, suitable as an independent investigation method as well as an outstanding way of sample preparation for application of automatic quantitative image analysis to refractory alloys. This paper reports the problems of characterization of the Ni and Fe base alloys to be solved by interference layer metallography and the physical background of this method. The procedure of chromatic contrasting is discussed. Fromthese considerations arises the result that for technical applications the optimum layer material for each special sample should be selected a priori. For that purpose it is necessary to measure the optical constants of the respective structural elements of the alloys as well as those of the candidate layer materials. The measuring procedures are discussed in detail. A routine procedure is deduced which allows to determine a priori the layer material and thickness fitting best to a given problem.
