Abstract

ATI Allvac ® 718Plus™ is a novel nickel-based superalloy, which was designed for heavy-duty applications in aerospace turbines. In the present study the high-resolution investigation techniques, atom probe tomography, electron microscopy and in situ high-temperature small-angle neutron scattering were used for a comprehensive microstructural characterization. The alloy contains nanometer-sized spherical γ′ phase precipitates (Ni 3(Al,Ti)) and plate-shaped δ phase precipitates (Ni 3Nb) of micrometer size. The precipitation kinetics of the γ′ phase can be described by a classical model for coarsening. The precipitation strongly influences the mechanical properties and is of high scientific and technological interest.
