superalloy developed for turbine blade applications was investigated. The aim of the present
study was to characterize quantitatively a superalloy microstructure and subsequent
development of rafted γ′ precipitates in the PWA 1497 during creep deformation at 982° C
and 248 MPa up to rupture. The PWA1497 microstructure was characterized by scanning
electron microscopy and FIB–SEM electron tomography. The 3D reconstruction of the …
