Abstract

Intermetallic compound Ni3Al(γ′) is one of the major constituents in Ni-base superalloys. But it is not used by itself for structural use because of its low ductility and low strength.

In the present study, the improvement of elevated temperature mechanical properties of Ni3Al intermetallic compound is pursued by addition of such elements as Fe, Ti, Cr, V, Nb, Ta, Mo, W, Zr and Hf. These results show that Ni 3AI which contains some elements substituting for Al has better mechanical properties and creep rupture properties than commercial Inconel 713C.
