NICKEL-BASED SUPERALLOY WITH MICROSTRUCTURE INCLUDING RAFTING-RESISTANT GAMMA PRIME PHASE AND ARTICLE PREPARED THEREFROM

Abstract:

In a non-limiting example, an article having a body including a nickel-based superalloy is provided. The nickel-based superalloy has a microstructure that includes a gamma phase matrix and a gamma prime phase including a plurality of rafting-resistant gamma prime particles dispersed in the gamma phase matrix. The plurality of the rafting-resistant gamma prime particles has an average particle perimeter of about 3 microns to about 15 microns, an average aspect ratio of about 1.2 to about 3, and where the microstructure of the nickel-based superalloy is substantially uniform throughout the body.
