Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE) Technology Initiatives Program (NTIP). Delivery Order 0041: Advanced Processing of Novel Ni-Based Single Crystal Alloys

Abstract

The overall objective of this program was to define new nickel-base superalloy single crystal compositions with improved properties compared to current commercial alloys. In addition to improved properties, these alloys would be amenable to processing by new single crystal liquid metal cooling processes. Alloys were subjected to a range of microstructural characterization, non-destructive evaluation and mechanical and physical property evaluations. Some compositions with improved properties relative to current "Generation 3" single crystal alloys were identified.
