Superalloys: A Technical Guide, 2nd EditionASM International, 2002 M01 1 - 439 pages This book covers virtually all technical aspects related to the selection, processing, use, and analysis of superalloys. The text of this new second edition has been completely revised and expanded with many new figures and tables added. In developing this new edition, the focus has been on providing comprehensive and practical coverage of superalloys technology. Some highlights include the most complete and up-to-date presentation available on alloy melting. Coverage of alloy selection provides many tips and guidelines that the reader can use in identifying an appropriate alloy for a specific application. The relation of properties and microstructure is covered in more detail than in previous books. |

... elements thus are generally stabilized by alloy element additions, particularly nickel, to provide the best properties. The upper limit of use for superalloys is not restricted by the occurrence of any allo- tropic phase transformation ...
... elements added, particularly chromium and aluminum, and the environment experienced. The melting temperatures of the pure elements are as follows: nickel, 2647 F (1453 C); cobalt, 2723 F (1495 C); and iron, 2798 F (1537 C). Incipient ...
... elements are added to super- alloys in minuscule to major amounts, particularly in the nickel-base alloys. Controlled alloy elements could be as many as 14 or so in some alloys. • Nickel and cobalt as well as chromium, tungsten ...
... elements used in nickel-base superalloys. Beneficial minor. 2.3. The figures show rupture strengths versus temperature for some alloys in the nickel- base and cobalt-base alloy types, respectively. Figure 2.1 does the same for all three ...
