Abstract

Recrystallization, possibly triggered during heat treatments by plastic strains of only 1–2%, is highly deleterious to Ni-based single-crystal superalloys. Herein, we successfully recover plastic deformation and enhance the supersolvus critical strain for recrystallization by ramping the annealing temperature slowly from 1100 °C to γ′-solvus point. This preempts recrystallization during the subsequent supersolvus solutionizing treatment. The proposed method is validated in single-crystals compressed to 5.9% plastic strain at room temperature. After supersolvus solutionizing, an almost dislocation-free single-crystal with uniformly distributed γ′-precipitates is obtained. The proposed method offers a practical means to bring down the overall expenses of single-crystal turbine blades. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT IMPACT STATEMENT An optimized pre-solutionizing recovery heat treatment can elevate the critical plastic strain value for recrystallization in Ni-based superalloy single-crystals to 3 times higher than previously established.

提高单晶高温合金再结晶超溶质临界应变的方法

再结晶对镍基单晶高温合金非常有害，可能在热处理过程中仅由1-2%的塑性应变触发。通过将退火温度从1100℃缓慢升高到γ′溶点，我们成功地恢复了塑性变形，并提高了再结晶的超溶剂临界应变。这可以防止在随后的超溶剂固溶处理过程中再结晶。该方法在单晶压缩至5.9%塑性应变的室温条件下得到了验证。经超溶剂固溶后，得到了几乎无位错的单晶，其γ′析出相分布均匀。该方法为降低单晶涡轮叶片的总体成本提供了一种实用的方法。优化后的预固溶恢复热处理可将ni基高温合金单晶再结晶的临界塑性应变值提高到原来的3倍。
