Abstract

It is becoming increasingly clear that new materials that can operate at substantially higher temperatures than Ni-base superalloys are needed for future gas turbines. High melting Co-Re-Cr based alloy strengthened by carbides, particularly the MC type carbide, shows promise [1]. A fine dispersion of globular TaC precipitate is exploited for this purpose. Additionally Cr, which is mainly added to improve oxidation resistance, also stabilizes lamellar M23C6 type Cr carbide. The microstructure of a Co-Re-Cr-Ta-C alloy with the two types of carbides is seen in Fig. 1.
