Abstract
In this work, the impacts of Y contents on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Ni-26W-6Cr-xY alloys at 700 °C were systematically studied. The results indicated that the grain size showed a decreasing trend with the increase of Y content. Meanwhile, the doping of Y element induced the precipitation of Ni5Y phases and increased the percentage of Σ3 and Σ9 type twin boundaries in the alloy. When 0.27 wt% Y was added, the yield strength (YS) rose from 80.54 MPa to 247.49 MPa. Moreover, the alloy with 0.05 wt% Y exhibited the optimal tensile properties, with elongation (EL) increasing from 7.42 % to 25.07 % and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) growing from 159.32 MPa to 400.39 MPa. The significant improvements of intermediate-temperature tensile properties by Y addition were attributed to the combined effects of grain refinement, formation of fine Ni5Y precipitates, and an increase of twin boundaries. However, the enhancement of the plasticity was suppressed by the formation of coarse Ni5Y phases when the excess Y was added.
