Abstract:
The effects of different Si additions on the microstructure, tensile properties and stress rupture properties of K452 Ni-based cast superalloy after standard heat treatment were studyied. Using OM, SEM, EDS and other experimental methods, the following results are obtained: in K452 Ni-based cast superalloy, the addition of Si has a great influence on the morphology and distribution of carbides. Due to the increase of Si content, the number of carbides distributed on the grain boundary increases. The effect of Si less than 0.5wt% on the tensile strength of the alloy is not obvious, but the tensile strength of the alloy decreases significantly when the amount of Si is greater than 1.0wt%. The stress rupture life of the alloy at 900 ℃/200 MPa decreases obviously with the increase of Si content.
