Abstract
The microstructure of Ni alloy produced by hot isostatic pressing (HIP) and selective laser melting (SLM) using pre-alloyed Ni41Al41Cr12Co6 spherical powders was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and high-resolution electron microscopy (HRTEM). In-situ studies of the evolution of the fine structure of Ni41Al41Cr12Co6 alloy during the heating at 20, 350⦠850â¯Â°C has been performed. Homogeneous precipitation and growth of the spherical Guinier-Preston zones rich in Cr (size < 5â¯nm) on concentration fluctuations of dopants in the β-NiAl matrix by spinodal decomposition was detected in the range of 20-450â¯Â°C. In addition, the precipitation of the Guinier-Preston zones by heterogeneous nucleation on the crystalline defects of β-NiAl matrix has been revealed. Prismatic dislocation loops 10-25â¯nm in size with a stacking fault are formed from a vacancy cluster in the β-NiAl grain at 750â¯Â°C. In the 750-850â¯Â°C interval, heterogeneous nucleation and growth of α-Cr nanocrystallites having a prismatic shape and longitudinal size of 20-50â¯nm was observed on the prismatic dislocation loops. Also, high-temperature strength characteristics of the alloy produced by HIP in the temperature range of 600-1100â¯Â°C on a Gleeble System 3800 testing system was studied. The high-temperature strength of the HIP samples produced using pre-alloyed spherical powders is higher by 80-100â¯MPa compared to that of the as-cast alloy.
