Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Dual Two-Phase Intermetallic Alloys Composed of GCP Ni3Al and Ni3V Phases containing Nb
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 February 2011
Abstract
Dual multi-phase intermetallic alloys composed of Ni3X (X: Al and V) containing Nb were developed, on the basis of the Ni3Al-Ni3Nb-Ni3V pseudo-ternary alloy system. The dual multi-phase intermetallic alloys were characterized by scanning electron and transmission electron microscopies. High-temperature compression and tension tests, and compression creep test were conducted. It was found that the dual multi-phase intermetallic alloys show high yield and tensile strength with good temperature retention, accompanied with reasonable tensile ductility. The compression creep test conducted at high temperature showed lower creep rate in the dual multi-phase intermetallic alloys than in conventional Ni-base superalloys. The obtained results are superior to the dual multi-phase intermetallic alloys containing Ti.
