The effect of Microcast-X fine grain casting on the microstructure and mechnical property K492M alloy at 760°C of was investigated. The results indicated that Microcast-X fine grain casting decreased grain size and dendrite space of γ′ phase and γ/γ′ eutectic. In addition, the element segregation decreased significantly compared to conventional casting technique. Also, the size and distribution of MC carbide were improved. By Microcast-X fine grain casting, the tensile strength increased from 934MPa of conventional casting alloy to 1089MPa and the elongation increased from 1.9% to 5.7%. In addition, the stress-rupture life increased from 28.8h of conventional casting alloy to 72.5h. And the fracture mechanism for the alloys by Microcast-X fine grain casting is trans-granular fracture toughness.

The microstructures and mechanical properties of superalloy K465 under different heat treatment, including as as-cast, solution treatment and aging, were investigated. The results showed that γ' precipitates in as-cast condition exhibited two kinds of morphologies of fine regular cuboidal shape at dendritic arm and coarse irregular form in interdendritic region. MC carbides decomposed into M6C carbides partly after 1210°C/4h solution treatment. The high temperature stress-rupture life can be improved obviously with the increasing cooling rate. When cooling rate was lower than 70°C/min, the room temperature tensile elongation increased with cooling rate increasing. When cooling rate was higher than 90°C/min the room temperature tensile elongation decreased with cooling rate increasing. The proper cooling rate of 70oC/min~90oC/min is advantageous for the achievement of excellent comprehensive properties. When aging treatments continued the regularization of γ' resulted in the improvement of stress-rupture life and the reduction of tensile elongation. The mechanical property gap between the solution treatment and aging can be decreased with increasing cooling rate.

The microstructure, tensile and stress rupture properties of K492Malloy have been investigated in the present study. The results revealed that γ matrix, γ′ phase, carbide and eutectic in the interdendritic region within grain interior and along grain boundary were observed after solidification. After heat treatment, γ' precipitates with two obviously distinct size existed in the dendrite core and interdendritic region, respectively. Meanwhile, the chain-like (W, Mo)6C and Cr23C6carbides precipitated along grain boundary. The investigation of mechanical properties suggested that the tensile strength was initially increased but then decreased with increasing the temperature from 25oC to 760oC. The stress rupture life was 68.2h and 35.8h at 760oC / 655MPa and 870oC / 365MP, respectively. The columnar grain and carbide along grain boundary resulted in intergranular brittle fracture in both test conditions. As a result, the elongation under the conditions of 760oC/655MPa and 870oC/365MP was 1.5% and 1.4%, respectively.

The effect of NiCr-CrAl coating on the microstructure, oxidation and corrosion resistance, as well as mechanical properties of Ni3Al base alloy IC6AE has been studied in the present investigation. NiCr-CrAl coating for alloy IC6AE was prepared by the powder pack cementation method. The oxidation resistance tests were carried out under the condition of 1050°C/100h, while the hot corrosion resistance tests were under 900°C/100h. The tensile tests at the room temperature and the stress rupture life tests under 1050°C/90Mpa have been also conducted. The experimental results showed that NiCr-CrAl as-coated specimens had excellent oxidation and hot corrosion resistance compared with the alloy IC6AE blank specimens, and NiCr-CrAl coating has no obvious effect on the mechanical properties of alloy IC6AE. It may be concluded that NiCr-CrAl coating is suitable for the alloy IC6AE.

The microstructures and mechanical properties of IN738LC superalloy made by investment castings followed by Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) treatment have been investigated. The results revealed that after HIP treatment, the microporosities have been almost removed and the density rose by 0.21%. The eutectic size became smaller and the fraction decreased. The γ' phase was more regular and also increased in size, while a large number of secondary γ' phase appeared. With HIP treatment, the impact toughness increased from 5.0J ~ 7.0J to 8J ~ 9J and tensile strength at 200°C ~ 800°C was improved by approximately 3.2%~19.7%. In addition, the ductility and the stress rupture life have also been greatly improved as well.

The effects of application of recycled scraps on the composition, microstructure and mechanical properties of SRR99 alloy were studied. The compositions of recycle master alloy are similar to that of the fresh alloy. However, nitrogen content, the size and amount of microporosity increase significantly with the recycle material proportion. Granular, lamellar and strip-like MC particles mainly represent in the interdendritic regions of the revert alloy. With the addition of the recycled material proportion, the amount of the granular ones rapidly drop and the lamellar ones gently enhance. The stress rupture life decline with the addition of the recycled material proportion. The oxide and sulphide inclusions in revert superalloy can be effectively captured and removed by a foam ceramic filter so that the tensile and stress rupture property has been significantly improved.

The effect of long-term aging at 1070°C on microstructure and mechanical properties of Ni3Al-base equiaxed superalloy IC6E was investigated. The microstructure change during aging for periods of 100 to 1500h was examined by SEM . Results showed that alloy IC6E underwent following microstructure changes during aging: γ' phases coalesced and grew, γ phases became disconnected and coarsened, the content of Mo (the solution-hardening element of γ and γ' phases) in γ' phases decreased, Y-NiMo phases precipitated from γ phases both at grain boundaries and within grains, and γ' bands and large γ phases emerged along grain boundaries. The tensile and stress rupture properties after aging were determined. The results showed that the yield strength of alloy IC6E at room temperature decreased obviously after aging for 100 h, and reduced slowly during further aging. The stress rupture life under 1070°C, 80MPa also had no essential change during aging.

The effect of different aluminum content on peritectic reaction and mechanical properties of pentatomic TiAl-based alloy was investigated. The results indicate that the grain size gradually increase with increasing content of aluminum and addition 45.7% aluminum in TiAl-based alloy results in that the peritectic reaction can increase grain size greatly, respectively. The content of aluminum can increase the room temperature strength, high temperature strength but peritectic reaction can effectively reduce tensile strength. Aluminum content has a little effect on the ductility. The stress rupture life has positive correlation relationship with the content of aluminum.

A systematic study has been made of the effects of various heat treatments on the microstructures of several experimental high volume fraction γ’ precipitation hardened nickel-base alloys, after doping with ∼2 w/o Hf so as to improve the stress rupture life and ductility. The most significant microstructural chan§e brought about by prolonged aging at temperatures in the range 1600°-1900°F was the decoration of grain boundaries with precipitate particles.Precipitation along the grain boundaries was first detected by optical microscopy, but it was necessary to use the scanning electron microscope to reveal the details of the precipitate morphology. Figure 1(a) shows the grain boundary precipitates in relief, after partial dissolution of the surrounding γ + γ’ matrix.
