Three unusual Ru-rich phases have been identified in a multicomponent Ni-base single crystal superalloy, including a L21 Ru2AlTa Heusler phase, a B2 RuAl phase and a hcp Re(Ru)-rich δ phase. These phases have their own preferential precipitation location within the dendritic structure. No conventional topologically-close-packed (TCP) phases have been observed with thermal exposure at 950oC for 1500 hours.

The effects of applied tensile stress on the microstructural stability of a third generation single crystal superalloy DD10 have been investigated under stressed and un-stressed thermal exposure at 980 °C. The results indicated that μ phase precipitated in the dendrite core after both stressed and un-stressed thermal exposure at 980 °C for 450 h. The μ phase formation, γ′ coarsening and rafting processes were promoted by the applied tensile stress. However, the precipitation of μ phase was not sensitive to the magnitude of applied tensile stress. Meanwhile, the applied tensile stress did not affect the type and morphology of the topologically close packed (TCP) phase. It is suggested that the interaction of the applied tensile stress and the misfit stress decreased the lattice misfit between μ phase and γ matrix and promoted the formation of μ phase.

The coarsening behavior of γ' phase and precipitation behavior of TCP phase in a Ni3Al based single crystal superalloy were investigated by experimental and calculation. The Re-containing and Mo-rich single crystal superalloy used in this study exhibit good high-temperature strength and oxidation resistance. After fully heat-treated, the experimental superalloys were aged at 1050°C and 1150°C for different time periods from 50h to 1000h. The microstructure after thermal exposure was examined by field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The results indicated that the coarsening behavior of γ' phase agrees well with the typical Lifshitz-Slyozov-Wagner (LSW) theory. After thermal exposure, both the size and the volume fraction of the TCP phase changed perceptibly.

Microstructure evolution of a nickel-base single crystal superalloy during thermal exposure at 982°C was investigated. The SEM studies revealed that the size of γ' phase increased and some of which linked together with the elongation of the exposure time. There is acicular phase precipitation after the long-term ageing treatment. The TCP phase is not increased by the increment of ageing time after reaching a certain amount. There are skeleton shape carbides precipitate after 100h and 300h. The amount of precipitated carbides decreases by the elongation of ageing time.
