Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of an Advanced Nickel-Based Superalloy in the as-HIP Form
This study evaluates the suitability of as-hot isostatically pressed (HIP) RR1000 for non-critical applications in aero-engine components. RR1000, an advanced powder nickel-based superalloy, was developed for disc rotor components in aero-engines. For these critical applications, the consolidated alloy powder particles are extruded to break down carbide and oxide networks, known as prior particle boundaries (PPBs), and to refine the structure into a fine grain size … Continue reading Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of an Advanced Nickel-Based Superalloy in the as-HIP Form
