Abstract

The prolonged holding at high temperature of certain cast cobalt base superalloys may lead to rarefaction and fragmentation of the tantalum carbides which harden these alloys. Room temperature hardness, thermal dilatation and high temperature tensile strength have been studied in relation with these processes. Only the thermal dilatation coefficient and the modulus of elasticity are really affected by the evolution of the tantalum carbides.
