The precipitation of topologically close-packed (TCP) phases is the result of microstructure
instabilities of Ni-based superalloys. This review seeks to comprehensively collate all the …

Single crystal Ni-based superalloys have long been an essential material for gas turbines in
aero engines and power plants due to their outstanding high temperature creep, fatigue and …

Ni-based superalloys are key materials for hot-end components of aeroengines.
Considering the importance and complex of aeroengine components, the understanding on …

Crack initiation mechanisms in the very high cycle fatigue (VHCF) regime of nickel-based
single-crystal (SX) superalloys have been investigated at high temperature (1000° C) and …

In this study, the effect of rhenium (Re) addition on microstructural evolution of a new low-
density Co-Ni-Al-Mo-Nb based superalloy is presented. Addition of Re significantly …

Re is one of the newly added key elements of single crystal Ni-based superalloys for
advanced aero-engine turbine blades. The mechanisms that how Re influences the …

We investigated the solute diffusional behavior active during compressive creep deformation
at 150 MPa/975° C of a Co-Al-W-Ta single crystal superalloy in the [001] orientation. We …

A novel approach based on rapid thermal annealing and advanced electron microscopy is
used to elucidate the differences in early stages of high-temperature oxidation of Ni-and Co …

Dislocation-precipitate interaction and solute segregation play important roles in controlling
the mechanical behavior of Ni-based superalloys at high temperature. In particular, the …

Comparable investigation of pore-induced defects during in-phase (IP) and out-of-phase
(OP) thermo-mechanical fatigue (TMF) were conducted on fourth-generation single crystal …
