Abstract

Oxidation resistance is a critical criterion to evaluate the service life of Ni-based superalloys. In this work, the quantitative relationship between various factors including temperature, time and alloying element compositions and oxidation resistance of Ni-based superalloys is established with the aid of machine learning. The influence weight of various factors and the coupling effect among different alloying elements are clarified and discussed. The results show that Ti, Cr and Al are the most important elements affecting the oxidation resistance of Ni-based superalloys. The effect of Ti varies with the content, while Mo and Nb are detrimental to the oxidation resistance of Ni-based superalloys. The coupling effect of Cr and Al makes Ni-based superalloys possess better oxidation resistance. Based on these, novel Ni-based superalloys are screened out, which exhibit better oxidation resistance than commercial alloys. This work can provide new idea to accelerate the design of novel Ni-based superalloys with better comprehensive properties.
