Abstract
The microstructure of a newly developed Co-base superalloy with enhanced high-temperature strength has been investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and three-dimensional atom probe (3DAP) techniques. It mainly consists of a typical γ/γ′ (FCC/L1 2) structure and a plate-shaped AB 3-type ( Ni , Co , Cr ) 3 ( Ti , Al ) intermetallic compound with hexagonal structure ( a∼5.1 Å and c∼12.5 Å). γ′ is formed with a bimodal distribution and fine γ′ has a cuboidal morphology. Cr and Co are enriched in the γ phase, while Ti, Al and Ni are enriched in the γ′ phase. W and Mo are more or less uniformly distributed in both γ and γ′. Chemical composition analysis by 3DAP suggests that the plate-shaped phase has a higher Ti and lower Al content compared to that of γ′ phase, and the concentration of Ti, Co and Ni has a periodic variation along c-axis with a period of 12.5 Å in the plate-shaped phase.
