The low thermal expansion characteristics of the most widely used class of materials are derived from the ferromagnetic characteristics of Ni, Fe, and Co-based austenitic matrices containing little or no Cr.Alloy developments have been aimed at improving the oxidation resistance and stress accelerated grain boundary oxygen (SAGBO) attack.INCONEL alloy 783 is an oxidation resistant, low coefficient of thermal expansion superalloy developed for gas turbine applications. Alloy 783 represents a culmination in the development, of an alloy system with very high alumtnum content that, in addition to forming γ′,causes βaluminide phase precipitation in the austenitic matrix.This type of structure can be processed to resist both SAGBO and general oxidation,while providing low thermal expansion and useful mechanical properties up to 700℃.Key aspects of the alloy's development are presented.展开更多

The microstructure was then analysed by optical microscopy(OM), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), and transmission electron microscopy(TEM) to probe the relationship between microstructure and properties. The results show that a new Ni_(5)Al_(3) phase is found, which grows gradually in β phase with serving time increasing,destroying the martensitic structure of the β phase, and degenerating the toughness of the β phase(approximately13.88% reduction). Therefore, the degradation of the βphase results in a sharp dropping of the resistance to stress accelerated grain boundary oxygen(SAGBO) during serving;thus, the intergranular fracture morphology degree increases with duration of service(almost 40% increase from the fractured surface). In addition, the strength of alloy will be gradually enhanced when the γ'phase becomes relatively bulky with serving time increasing due to considerable distortion of the dislocations as a result of the spacing of individual particles, in which any movement of the dislocation will have to overcome a larger number of obstacles per unit length.展开更多

The rupture fracture failure of Inconel 783 superalloy is researched by analyzing the fracture surface and microstructure of the rupture specimens. The intergranular β phase precipitated sufficiently with favorable morphology can efficiently strengthen grain boundaries that can achieve a full plastic deformation of grains. Additionally, the intergranular β phase can effectively restrain the occurrence and expansion of intergranular cracks during the rupture test. The intergranular β phase insufficiently precipitated can weaken the intergranular cohesion and lead to the occurrence and expansion of cracks; thus, the grains cannot be fully deformed before breaking. Therefore, the β phase precipitated in the grain boundaries can significantly increase the rupture plasticity of Inconel 783 superalloy.展开更多
With assistance of Mo interlayer, joining of Cf/SiC composite to GH783 superalloy was carried out using NiPdPtAu-Cr filler alloy.

Under the brazing condition of 1200 C for 10 min, the maximum joint strength of 98.5 MPa at room temperature was achieved when the thickness of Mo interlayer was 0.5 mm. Furthermore, the corresponding joint strength tested at 800 ℃ and 900℃ was even elevated to 123.8 MPa and 133.0 MPa, respectively. On one hand, the good high-temperature joint strength was mainly attributed to the formation of the refractory Mo-Ni-Si ternary compound within the joint. On the other hand, the residual Mo interlayer as a hard buffer, can release the residual thermal stresses within the dissimilar joint. The Cf/SiC-Mo bonding interface was still the weak link over the whole joint, and the cracks propagated throughout the whole reaction zone between the Cf/SiC composite and the Mo interlayer.展开更多
