Effects of V addition on the mechanical properties at elevated temperatures in a γ”-strengthened NiCoCr-based multi-component alloy

摘要

Ni Co Cr-based multi-component alloys have drawn much attention due to their exceptional ductility and strain hardening capacity.However,insufficient strength-ductility synergy of NiCoCr alloy has always been an issue that prevents it from extensive applications.According to our previous research,the precipitation ofγ”phase can significantly improve the strength-ductility synergy of this alloy system at room temperature.In this study,the effects of V addition onγ”phase stability and high-temperature mechanical properties have been explicitly investigated.The results indicate that V addition can stabilize the metastableγ”phase in this alloy system and prevent it from transforming into a stableδphase at grain boundaries upon 650℃aging,resulting in improved mechanical properties at elevated temperatures.The specific strength ofγ”-strengthened multi-component NiCoCr-based alloy can reach up to 86.2 MPa gcmat 650℃,which is higher than those of Ni-based superalloys,IN 939 and Waspaloy.This work provides theoretical guidance for the novel design of γ”-strengthened alloy for high-temperature applications.
