A dispersion strengthened nickel-base superalloy, designated IN-853, has been made by a new process called “Mechanical Alloying.” This provides a long sought combination of properties typical of dispersion strengthened and precipitation hardened materials. The alloy has flat rupture curves over a wide temperature range. Rupture stress/temperature curves for the alloy show a transition separating the low temperature regime where precipitation hardening controls the strength, and the high temperature range where dispersion strengthening predominates. The slope of a Larson-Miller plot of stress rupture test data also decreases at high values of that parameter. At high temperatures rupture stress is less sensitive to temperature changes than is the case with conventional nickel-base superalloys. At a fixed stress level the rupture life of the dispersion strengthened superalloy is more sensitive to temperature changes.

AbstractThe effects of heat treatment process on microstructure and properties of a nickel base superalloy are investigated. The size of γ´ phase decreases and the stress rupture life of alloy at 1100 °C/60 MPa drops with the rise of cooling rate. The hardness at room temperature also increases. The size of cuboidal γ´ precipitate and the volume of spherical γ´ precipitate increase with the rise of aging temperature. With higher aging temperature, the alloy exhibits bimodal γ´ phase. A reasonable combination of the size and volume fraction of cuboidal and spherical γ´ phase can obtain better stress rupture property at 1100 °C/60 MPa.

A systematic study has been made of the effects of various heat treatments on the microstructures of several experimental high volume fraction γ’ precipitation hardened nickel-base alloys, after doping with ∼2 w/o Hf so as to improve the stress rupture life and ductility. The most significant microstructural chan§e brought about by prolonged aging at temperatures in the range 1600°-1900°F was the decoration of grain boundaries with precipitate particles.Precipitation along the grain boundaries was first detected by optical microscopy, but it was necessary to use the scanning electron microscope to reveal the details of the precipitate morphology. Figure 1(a) shows the grain boundary precipitates in relief, after partial dissolution of the surrounding γ + γ’ matrix.

The precipitation behavior during ageing treatment of a single crystal nickel-base superalloy was investigated by SEM and TEM. The results showed that tetragonal needle-like σ phase and blocky -W phase precipitated during low temperature ageing treatment after this testing alloy was completely solution heat treated. σ and -W phases robbed of solid solution strengthening alloying element W、Mo in the matrix and degraded high temperature creep rupture property severely. The creep curve of the crystal tested at 1010 °C and 248 MPa exhibited that the steady state creep rate ε was as high as 9.46 × 10-3/h. The creep-rupture life was only 25 hours. -W phase was not formed by decrease of W content properly. A relatively low level of Co could inhibit σ phase precipitation and improve microstructural stability.

The high-temperature capability and workability of cobalt-tungsten alloys for aerospace applications is discussed. The average life at 1850 F and 15,000 psi of the strongest previously reported alloy, Co-25 W-1Ti-1Zr-0.4C, was doubled from 92 to 185 hr by small additions of chromium and rhenium. At 2200 F and 5000 psi, the strongest alloy, Co-25W-1Ti-1Zr-3Cr-2Re-0.4C, had a rupture life of 23 hr; the elevated-temperature rupture strength compared favorably with the strongest available conventional (high-chromium) cobalt-base alloys. Above approximately 2035 F and at reasonably high stress levels (10,000 and 15,000 psi), its stress-rupture life also exceeded those of the strongest known nickel-base alloys, including the NASA tantalum-modified alloy and SM-200. It is particularly significant that even the strongest alloys of this series were readily hot-rolled. Ingots 1/2 in. thick were reduced to 0.065-in. sheet and subsequently cold-rolled to 0.0125-in. sheet. Elongations as high as 31 percent were obtained at room temperature with annealed sheet specimens. The good ductility obtained suggests that these alloys could be fabricated into complex shapes required for various aerospace and other applications. Although the strongest alloys had a chromium content of only 3 percent, they did not oxidize catastrophically in air.
