The nickel base alloy, grade Hastelloy X was modified by Aluminum and Titanium additions by means of vacuum arc melting process in order to improve microstructural characteristics and oxidation resistance. The arc melted Hastelloy X was added Aluminum and Titanium each for 2%, 4% and 6% by weight. Then all specimens were performed with heat treatment, which consists of solutioning treatment at 1125°C for 24 hours and precipitation aging at temperatures of 760°C, 800°C and 845°C for 24 hours. Both aluminum and titanium additions resulted in network intermetalic phase formation, namely, σ-phase, throughout the matrix. Furthermore, the addition of both elements provided the better oxidation resistance for the alloys.

The present research work has an aim to modify microstructure and oxidation behavior of Hastelloy X, a solid solution nickel base alloy, by both aluminium and titanium additions by mean of arc melting process. The Hastelloy X was added both Al and Ti (50:50) for 2% 4% and 6% by weight and casted by vacuum arc melting furnace. Then all received specimens were performed heat treatment, which consist of solutioning treatment at 1175°C for 4 hours and aging temperatures for 760°C, 800°C and 845°C for 24 hours. From the obtained results, it was found that the amount of both Al and Ti additions as well as precipitation aging temperature provided significant effect on both final microstructure and oxidation behaviors at 900°C and 1000°C. Widmanstatten type of microstructure was found in many case. Intermetallic phase formation of molybdenum and chromium was also found in all cases by element mapping. This phase should be γ’-phase. Both aluminium and titanium additions could not provide beneficial effect on oxidation resistance tests at temperature of 900°C and 1000°C. However, with 4%wt. of both aluminium and titanium addition, it resulted in slightly increasing of oxidation resistance at temperature of 1000°C

The microstrueture of a commercial nickel-base alloy normally consists of a coherent, cuboidal precipitate of γ’ (alloyed Ni3Al) in a matrix of γ (Ni solid solution). Recently, Ham et al., working with the ternary alloy 78Ni-l8Al-4Ti (a/o), have shown that by appropriate heat treatment a completely novel microstrueture can be developed, in which the matrix is γ’ and the precipitate is platelet γ. The present study represents an extension of this work, and reports some new findings on precipitation of γ in γ’ in alloys similar in composition to the Ni-Al-Ti alloy but with Ta replacing Ti.The alloys used were solutionized in the range 2200-2400°F and aged at l600°F for 24hrs (giving ∼ 10 vol. percent of γ in γ’). According to our most recent findings, unlike the binary system, the solubility of γ’ for γ reaches a maximum at ∼ 2200°F in these alloys.

A high strength nickel-base alloy has been developed which compares favorably in oxidation resistance with known high strength nickel-base alloys. The alloy, although basically a cast material, also possesses workability potential. After 310 hr exposure to air at 1900 deg F, the alloy had a weight gain of 1.8 mg/cm2. The total affected zone, oxidized material plus depletion zone, was 0.4 mil. This compares with a weight gain of 3.0 mg/cm2 and a total affected zone depth of 3.3 mils for Rene´ 41 after 100 hr exposure at 1900 deg F. In sheet form after 8 hr at 2200 deg F, its oxidation resistance was approximately the same as that of Rene´ 41 at 1900 deg F. Tensile strengths of the alloy after rolling and heat-treatment ranged from an average of 185,000 psi at 1400 deg F to 3000 psi at 2200 deg F. Maximum elongation was 55 percent and occurred at the latter temperature. At 1900 deg F, average tensile strength was 64,500 psi in the as-cast condition, and 54,000 psi after rolling and heat-treatment. Stress rupture data for low and intermediate stress levels were obtained. In the as-cast condition, use temperatures for 500, 100, and 10-hr life at 15,000 psi are 1815, 1895, and 2010 deg F, respectively. At 8000 psi and 2125 deg F, rupture life was 13 hr and compared favorably with some of the strongest known nickel and cobalt-base alloys. The very good high temperature oxidation resistance, good high temperature strength, and at least limited workability of this alloy suggest that it may be applicable for use in advanced gas turbine engine components.

This research objective is to study the microstructural modification by Al additions in cast nickel base superalloy, GTD-111 by means of vacuum arc melting process. The Al additions to the alloy were 1, 2 and 3% by weight. After that, all casted specimens were performed with different reheat treatment conditions, which consist of solutioning temperatures of 1125°C, 1145°C, 1165°C, 1185°C and 1205°C, respectively, for 6 hours following with precipitation aging at 845°C for 24 hours. After all reheat treatments, the microstructures were investigated and analyzed by SEM. From all obtained results, it was founded that the specimens with Al additions for 1-2%wt. following with reheat treatment show the decrease in size of γ’ precipitated particles when increasing solutioning temperatures. 3%wt. of Al addition was too high content resulting in already improper microstructural characteristics. However all obtained data of area fractions of precipitate phase were almost the same. Effect of Al addition and solutioning temperature did not provide any significant effect in this case. The mechanical property behavior: hardness was investigated by using Vickers hardness tester. It was found that the hardness all was very similar and increased with higher solutioning temperatures.
