The effects of a solution treatment on the microstructure and elevated mechanical properties of the forged Rene 41 superalloy were investigated. The results indicate that the solution treatment temperature has a significant influence on the γ' structure and mechanical properties. The sub-solvus solution treatment resulted in the co-existence of residual primary coarse γ' precipitates and fine secondary γ' precipitates, while the super-solvus solution treatments led to the complete dissolution of the primary γ' precipitates and the precipitation of a nano-sized secondary spherical γ' precipitate. The tensile strength increased and then decreased when the solution temperature increased from the sub-solvus to super-solvus solution treatments. In addition, the solution treatment time has a negligible influence on the γ' and overall mechanical properties due to the complete dissolution of γ' during the solution treatment at 1080 °C for 1 h. Moreover, the cooling rate following the solution treatment plays a significant role regarding the size and morphology of γ' and the mechanical properties. The secondary γ' changed gradually from spherical to concave cubic and octo-cubic and coarsened with the decrease in the cooling rate, resulting in an apparent decrease in strength and increase in ductility.
研究了固溶处理对锻造Rene 41高温合金微观结构和提高力学性能的影响。结果表明,固溶处理温度对γ'结构和力学性能有显著影响。亚固溶处理导致残余一次粗大γ'析出物和细小二次γ'析出物共存,而超固溶处理导致一次γ'析出物完全溶解并析出纳米尺寸的二次球形γ'析出物。当固溶温度从亚固溶处理升高到超固溶处理时,拉伸强度先增加后降低。此外,由于在1080℃固溶处理1小时期间γ'完全溶解,固溶处理时间对γ'和整体力学性能的影响可忽略不计。此外,固溶处理后的冷却速率对γ'的尺寸和形态以及力学性能起着重要作用。二次γ'逐渐从球形变为凹立方和八面体立方,并随着冷却速率的降低而粗化,导致强度明显降低和延展性增加。
