Abstract

Super-solidus hot isostatic pressing (SSHIP) heat treatment has first been developed and applied to the third-generation Ni-base single crystal superalloy CMSX-10 K. This new type of heat treatment aims at significantly reducing the total time required for the solution heat treatment and at enhancing mechanical properties as compared to conventional heat treatment routes. The SSHIP is an innovative, economical and sustainable approach that can be applied to all types of Ni-base SX superalloys. It is especially interesting for alloys with a high content of refractory elements and a large volume fraction of eutectic microstructure in the as-cast state.
