Abstract

The coarsening behavior of γ' phase and precipitation behavior of TCP phase in a Ni3Al based single crystal superalloy were investigated by experimental and calculation. The Re-containing and Mo-rich single crystal superalloy used in this study exhibit good high-temperature strength and oxidation resistance. After fully heat-treated, the experimental superalloys were aged at 1050°C and 1150°C for different time periods from 50h to 1000h. The microstructure after thermal exposure was examined by field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The results indicated that the coarsening behavior of γ' phase agrees well with the typical Lifshitz-Slyozov-Wagner (LSW) theory. After thermal exposure, both the size and the volume fraction of the TCP phase changed perceptibly.
