Secondo la presente invenzione leghe nella gamma di composizione According to the present invention alloys in the composition range

Nb, ? il resto essenzialmente nichel sono dotate di propriet? meccaniche migliorate attraverso la fabbricazione della lega in forma di monocristallo. L'articolo in monocristallo risultante viene quindi preferibilmente trattato a caldo. Leghe monocristallo trattate a caldo di questa composizione mostrano un miglioram?nto di almeno dieci volte nella durata fino a rottura in confronto a leghe di composizione simile che sono state solidificate in modo convenzionale per produrre una struttura policristallina equiassiale. Nb,? the rest essentially nickel have properties? mechanics improved through the manufacture of the alloy in the form of a single crystal. The resulting single crystal article is then preferably heat treated. Heat treated single crystal alloys of this composition show at least a tenfold improvement in durability to failure compared to alloys of similar composition which have been conventionally solidified to produce an equiaxial polycrystalline structure.

Altre caratteristiche e vantaggi diverranno chiari dalla descrizione e dalle rivendicazioni che illustrano una forma di realizzazione della presente invenzione. Other features and advantages will become apparent from the description and claims illustrating an embodiment of the present invention.

La presente invenzione ha la sua origine in una osservazione sorprendente ed inaspettata. Una serie di superleghe commerciali sono state valutate in tre forme diverse. Sono stati preparati campio in forma policristallina (colata convenzionalmente), in forma a cristallo colonnare (solidificata direzionalmente), ed in forma monocristallo (solidificata direzionalmente). Le leghe provate sono leghe MAR-M200, MAR-M247, IN 939 e IN 792. Le prime due leghe sono leghe esclusive prodotte sotto licenza della Martin Metals Corporation e le altre due leghe sono leghe esclusiVe fornite dalla International Nickel Corporation. La composizione di queste leghe come provate viene riportata nella Tabella 1. The present invention has its origin in a surprising and unexpected observation. A number of commercial superalloys have been evaluated in three different forms. Samples were prepared in polycrystalline form (conventionally cast), in columnar crystal form (directionally solidified), and in single crystal form (directionally solidified). The alloys tested are MAR-M200, MAR-M247, IN 939 and IN 792 alloys. The first two alloys are proprietary alloys manufactured under license from the Martin Metals Corporation and the other two alloys are excluded alloys supplied by the International Nickel Corporation. The composition of these alloys as tested is shown in Table 1.

Attraverso il riferimento alla Tabella 1 si pu? vedere che materiali colati convenzionalmente contengono agenti rinforzanti dello strato limite di cristallo come carbonio, boro e zirconio, come fanno tutti i materiali a cristallo colonnare. La maggior parte dei campioni a cristallo colonnare contengono anche aggiunte di afnio per una duttilit? trasversale migliorata. La maggior parte dei campioni monocristallo non contiene alcuno degli elementi carbonio, boro, zirconio od afnio. Through the reference to Table 1 you can? see that conventionally cast materials contain crystal boundary layer reinforcing agents such as carbon, boron and zirconium, as do all columnar crystal materials. Most columnar crystal samples also contain hafnium additions for ductility. improved transverse. Most single crystal samples do not contain any of the elements carbon, boron, zirconium or hafnium.

I campioni di lega colata vengono trattati a caldo come descritto nella Tabella 2 ed il trattamento a caldo descritto in questa relazione ? convenzionale trattamento a caldo che ? tipico di quelli che verrebbero probabilmente scelti da una persona esperta nella tecnica. Are the cast alloy samples heat treated as described in Table 2 and the heat treatment described in this report? conventional heat treatment which? typical of those which would probably be chosen by a person skilled in the art.

Questi campioni di lega vengono provati per la resistenza allo scorrimento in differenti condizioni di carico e di temperatura con i risultati mostrati nella Tabella 3. La Tabella 3 mostra i benefici sorprendenti ed inaspettati che derivano dalla fabbricazione della lega IN 792 modificata informa monocristallo. Per le leghe MAR-M200, MAR-M247 e IN 939 il rapporto tra durata fino alla rottura dei campioni monocristallo rispetto ai campioni colati convenzionali ha una media di 4,1 volte, tuttavia per il caso della lega IN 792 il rapporto tra durata fino a rottura del monocristallo rispetto alla durata fino a rottura della colata convenzionale ? di pi? di 17 volte (media delle prove 870?C/344.,75 MPa e 980?C/186,16 MPa). Questo grado di miglioramento ? soprendente ed inaspettata. Appare cos? che il miglioramento (nella durata fino a rottura per scorrimento) ottenuto mediante la fabbricazione della lega IN 792 (modificata) in forma monocristallo ? di circa 37Q? maggiore del beneficio che si potrebbe prevedere sulla base della evidenza fornita dalle altre superleghe. Allo scopo di definire i risultati dell'invenzione, appare che si otterrebbe un minimo di miglioramento di 10 volte nella durata fino a rottura per scorrimento. These alloy samples are tested for creep resistance under different load and temperature conditions with the results shown in Table 3. Table 3 shows the surprising and unexpected benefits of manufacturing the modified IN 792 single crystal alloy. For the MAR-M200, MAR-M247 and IN 939 alloys the ratio between duration to failure of the single crystal samples compared to conventional cast samples has an average of 4.1 times, however for the case of the IN 792 alloy the ratio between duration up to to failure of the single crystal compared to the duration up to failure of the conventional casting? more? of 17 times (average of the tests 870? C / 344., 75 MPa and 980? C / 186.16 MPa). This degree of improvement? surprising and unexpected. It appears so? that the improvement (in the duration up to failure by creep) obtained by manufacturing the alloy IN 792 (modified) in a single crystal form? about 37Q? greater than the benefit that could be expected based on the evidence provided by the other superalloys. In order to define the results of the invention, it appears that a minimum of 10-fold improvement in durability to creep failure would be obtained.

Una conclusione simile viene raggiunta quando si consideri il tempo occorrente fino allo scorrimento dell'1%. In questo caso sulla base delle due leghe MAR M, ci si aspetterebbe un miglioramento medio di 5,4 volte cambiando la macrostruttura del campione di prova da policristallina a monocristallo (in unione con variazioni minori nella composizione e nel trattamento a caldo). Infatti apportando questa modifica alla lega IN 792 modificata si produce un beneficio medio di circa 12,6 volte. Nuovamente questo ? un perfezionamento sproporzionato ed inaspettato e non prevedibile dalle conoscenze precedenti della tecnica. A similar conclusion is reached when considering the time it takes until 1% slip. In this case based on the two MAR M alloys, an average improvement of 5.4 times would be expected by changing the macrostructure of the test sample from polycrystalline to single crystal (in conjunction with minor variations in composition and heat treatment). In fact, making this modification to the modified IN 792 alloy produces an average benefit of about 12.6 times. This again? a disproportionate and unexpected improvement and not foreseeable by previous knowledge of the technique.

Il miglioramento sostanziale nelle propriet? di scorrimento viene reso pi? notevole poich? la composizione dell'invenzione ? leggermente meno densa rispetto alle altre leghe valutate. Inoltre la notevole resistenza alla corrosione mostrata dalla lega IN 792 viene completamente mantenuta nella presente invenzione. The substantial improvement in the properties? scrolling is made pi? remarkable since? the composition of the invention? slightly less dense than the other alloys evaluated. Furthermore, the remarkable corrosion resistance shown by the IN 792 alloy is fully maintained in the present invention.

Un trattamento a caldo come descritto nel brevetto U.S.A. N? 4.116.723 viene preferito allo scopo di ottenere l'aumento massimo nelle propriet?. Un tale trattamento a caldo comporta il soluzionamento della fase gamma primo e l'omogeneizzazione della struttura colata ad una temperatura al di sopra della curva di solubilit? gamma primo (1232?C per la composizione dell'invenzione) seguita da uno o pi? trattamenti di invecchiamento a temperatura inferiore. Il brevetto U.S.A. N? 4.116.723 viene qui incorporato per riferimento. A heat treatment as described in U.S. Pat. N? 4,116,723 is preferred in order to obtain the maximum increase in properties. Such a heat treatment involves the solution of the gamma prime phase and the homogenization of the cast structure at a temperature above the solubility curve. gamma prime (1232? C for the composition of the invention) followed by one or more? aging treatments at a lower temperature. U.S. Pat. N? 4,116,723 is incorporated herein by reference.

Si deve comprendere che la presente invenzione ? limitata alle particolari forme di realizzazione mostrate e descritte in questa relazione, ma che vari cambiamenti e modifiche possono essere apportati senza discostarsi di questo originale concetto come definito dalle seguenti rivendicazioni. It is to be understood that the present invention? limited to the particular embodiments shown and described herein, but that various changes and modifications may be made without departing from this original concept as defined by the following claims.
