Effect of the Cr2Nb Phase on the Tensile Behavior and Oxidation Resistance of a Two-Step Heat-Treated Nb-24Ti-12Si-10Cr-2Al-2Hf Alloy

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

After a two-step heat treatment, the Cr2Nb particles in a directionally solidified Nb-24Ti-12Si-10Cr-2Al-2Hf (at pct, unless stated otherwise) alloy were substantially refined into nanoscale precipitates. These precipitates showed the following orientation relationship with the NbSS matrix: (111)Nb//(111)Cr2Nb, [110]Nb//[220]Cr2Nb. The formation of nanoscale Cr2Nb particles via an aging heat treatment at 1273 K (1000 °C) improved the tensile strength to 950 MPa and reduced the alloy weight gain from 218.27 to 144.41 mg/cm2.
