Carburization of W- and Re-rich Ni-based alloys in impure helium at 1000°C
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract The surface and microstructure stability of experimental W- and Re-rich Ni-based alloys in an impure-helium environment containing only CO and CO2 as impurities (ppm level) have been investigated at 1000 °C. All the alloys carburized during 50 h of exposure, and, depending on the alloy composition, different carbides of the type M6C, M7C3 and M23C6 formed on the alloy surface, in grain interiors and at grain boundaries. Microprobe analysis and Calphad-based calculations indicated that the chromium carbides (particularly Cr23C6) were enriched by rhenium. Extended exposure (225 h) led to the disappearance of surface transient carbides and the growth of surface oxide Cr2O3 occurred.
