Alloy design for reducing V content of dual two-phase Ni3Al-Ni3V intermetallic alloys
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 January 2013
Abstract
The objective of this study is to establish alloy designing which can reduce the amount of V for a Ni-base dual two-phase intermetallic alloy, without degenerating the dual two-phase microstructure. It was demonstrated that the favorable dual two-phase microstructure will be maintained as far as the valence electron concentration (e/a) of the alloys added by Cr is not so much different from that of the base alloy (i.e. the alloy without additive elements). Consequently, it was found that the dual two-phase microstructure was maintained even though the amounts of V were reduced by 7 at.%, 7 at.%, and 10at.% by substituting of Cr for V, Cr for both of Ni and V, and Cr for Ni, respectively. The hardness of the alloys with reduced V content was higher than that of the base alloy.
