Ni-based single crystal superalloy

Abstract

The object of the present invention is to provide an Ni-based single crystal super alloy capable of improving strength by preventing precipitation of a TCP phase at high temperatures. This object is achieved by an Ni-based single crystal super alloy having a composition comprising 5.0-7.0 wt % of Al, 4.0-10.0 wt % of Ta, 1.1-4.5 wt % of Mo, 4.0-10.0 wt % of W, 3.1-8.0 wt % of Re, 0-0.50 wt % of Hf, 2.0-5.0 wt % of Cr, 0-9.9 wt % of Co and 4.1-14.0 wt % of Ru in terms of its weight ratio, with the remainder consisting of Ni and unavoidable impurities.

Benefits of technology

[0034] According to this Ni-based single crystal super alloy, the relationship between a1 and a2 is such that a2≦0.999a1 when the lattice constant of the matrix is taken to be a1 and the lattice constant of the precipitation phase is taken to be a2, and since the lattice constant a2 of the precipitation phase is −0.1% or less of

Problems solved by technology

Although the above-mentioned CMSX-2, which is a first-generation alloy, and CMSX-4, which is a second-generation alloy, have comparable creep strength at low temperatures, since a large amount of the eutectic γ′ phase remains following high-temperature solution treatment, their creep strength is inferior to third-generation alloys.

In addition, although the third-generation alloys of RenéN6 and CMSX-10 are alloys designed to have improved creep strength at high temperatures in comparison with second-generation alloys, since the composite ratio of Re (5 wt % or more)
