Abstract
In order to study the optimization method of microstructure stability of high generation single crystal superalloys, the influence of manufacturing process on the microstructure stability of a single crystal superalloy containing high content of refractory elements was studied, and the corresponding process optimization method was obtained. The microstructure characteristics of the alloy at different stages were observed and the corresponding element distribution were tested. The microstructure and element distribution of the alloy at different stages of preparation were analyzed with the assistance of kinetic calculation. Results show that the element dendrite segregation is an important reason to reduce microstructural stability. Reducing the dendrite spacing in directional solidification and increasing element diffusion in solid solution heat treatment can reduce the segregation of refractory elements in the dendrite core. As a result, less TCP precipitates in the dendrite core, and thus improve microstructure stability. Based on analyzed results, the manufacturing process were optimized and proved to be effective.
