Abstract:

In order to study the effect of tantalum to the microstructure and phase composition of Co-8.8Al-9.8W-XTa (X=0,2,at%) superalloy. The Co-8.8Al-9.8W-XTa (X=0,2) supperalloy used pure element powder, according to the ratio of different atomic percentage composition to make ingredients. It is mixed by planetary ball mill, pressed into blocks after the melting shape. Vacuum induction melting process was prepared by melting, after grinding, polishing, and after a volume of 5% perchloric acid and 95% of the electrolytic etching solution prepared in ethanol corrosion observed after analysis of the microstructure and phase composition by OM and XRD analysis. It can be found that the 9.8W and 2Ta alloy were mainly composed of rich γ-Co matrix of austenite precipitation of γ phase and coherent with matrix of the L12 structure of γ′-Co3(Al,W) phase. In addition, Ta element has effect on grain refinement and the number of γ′-Co3(Al,W) phase refines grain.
