Abstract
We determined phase equilibria in the Co-rich Co-Al-W-Ti quaternary system at a temperature range between 900 °C and 1200 °C with a close attention to the thermodynamic stability of the γ′-Co3(Al, W, Ti) (L12) phase, based on micro-structure observation and electron microprobe analysis on bulk alloy samples heat-treated for periods up to 2000 h. In the quaternary system the single phase field of γ′ extends from the Co-Ti binary edge to a composition of Co-5Al-8.5W-8Ti (in at.%) at 900 °C. At the tip of the single phase field, the γ′ phase is in equilibrium with the γ-Co (A1), Co2AlTi (L21) and Co3W (D019) phases. The constructed vertical section of phase diagram between Co-9.4Al-9.6W and Co-16.5Ti indicates that there is a narrow composition range around Co-4.5Al-5.4W-7.5Ti in which the γ single phase field exists at high temperatures above 1200 °C and two-phase of γ+γ′ is thermodynamically stable at low temperatures below 1100 °C.
