  • Co per se has a large work-hardening capability, and hence Co has a reducing effect on the fragility of edge cutting, an increasing effect on the fatigue strength, and an increasing effect on the high-temperature strength.
  • the content of Co is less than 28%, those effects are weakly exhibited.
  • the content of Co is more than 42% in this composition, a matrix becomes too hard, with the result that working on the alloy becomes difficult and a face-centered cubic lattice phase becomes unstable with respect to a hexagonal close-packed lattice phase.
  • the content of Co was set to 28 to 42%.
  • Cr is an essential component for ensuring the corrosion resistance and has a reinforcing effect on a matrix. However, if the content of Cr is less than 10%, the effect of imparting excellent corrosion resistance is weakly exhibited.

  • Ni has a stabilizing effect on a face-centered cubic lattice phase, a maintaining effect on the workability, and an enhancing effect on the corrosion resistance.
  • the content of Ni is less than 15%, providing a stabilized face-centered cubic lattice phase is difficult. If the content of Ni is more than 40%, the mechanical strength lowers. Thus, the content of Ni was set to 15 to 40%.
  • Ti has strong effects of deoxidation, denitrification, and desulfurization, and has a miniaturizing effect on an ingot texture. However, if the content of Ti is less than 0.1%, those effects are weakly exhibited. If the content is, for example, 1%, no problem occurs. If the content of Ti is too large, the amount of inclusions increases in the alloy, or an ⁇ phase (Ni 3 Ti) is precipitated, resulting in a reduction in toughness. Thus, the content of Ti was set to 0.1 to 1%.
  • Mn has the effects of deoxidation and desulfurization, and a stabilizing effect on a face-centered cubic lattice phase. However, if the content of Mn is too large, the corrosion resistance and the oxidation resistance deteriorate. Thus, the content of Mn was set to 1.5% or less.
  • the content of Fe is too large, the oxidation resistance lowers.
  • priority was given to the reinforcing effect on a matrix by forming a solid solution with the matrix rather than the oxidation resistance, and hence the upper limit of the content of Fe was set to 26%.
  • the content of Fe was set to 0.1 to 26%.
  • C forms a solid solution with a matrix and, in addition, has a preventing effect on grain coarsening by forming carbides with Cr, Mo, Nb, W, or the like.

  • W has a reinforcing effect on a matrix by forming a solid solution with the matrix and a significant increasing effect on the work-hardening capability.
  • the content of W is more than 5%, a G phase is precipitated, resulting in a reduction in toughness.
  • Al has the effect of deoxidation and an enhancing effect on the oxidation resistance. However, if the content of Al is too large, the corrosion resistance deteriorates, for example. Thus, the content of Al, if any, was set to 0.5% or less.
  • Zr has an enhancing effect on the hot workability by increasing the strength of a crystal grain boundary at high temperatures.
  • the content of Zr was set to 0.1% or less.
  • B has an improving effect on the hot workability. However, if the content of B is too large, the hot workability lowers in reverse, resulting in easy break of the alloy. Thus, the content of B, if any, was set to 0.01% or less.
  • the Co—Ni-based alloy according to this embodiment more preferably includes 0.1 to 3% of Fe and 3% or less of Nb selected as the at least one kind. That is, more preferred is a Co—Ni-based alloy having a composition including, in terms of mass ratio, 28 to 42% of Co, 10 to 27% of Cr, 3 to 12% of Mo, 15 to 40% of Ni, 0.1 to 1% of Ti, 1.5% or less of Mn, 0.1 to 3% of Fe, 0.1% or less of C, 3% or less of Nb, and an inevitable impurity.
  • the Co—Ni-based alloy having the composition described above by setting the upper limit of Fe to 3%, the oxidation resistance can be prevented from lowering more effectively.
  • a face-centered cubic lattice (fcc) alloy undergoes some processing, a Brass orientation usually develops in the crystal texture of the alloy rather than a Goss orientation. Further, it is known that the recrystallization of the alloy after heat treatment generally results in the change of its crystal texture. Thus, the change of the crystal texture described above made it difficult to control the crystals of the alloy.
  • the recrystallized texture probably has a certain orientation in its core, and hence the main orientation of its crystal texture is maintained.
  • the crystals of the alloy are controlled, it is not necessary to consider the change of the crystal texture, and it is enough to consider only the parameters of a heat treatment temperature and time, and hence the crystals of the alloy can easily be controlled.
  • the reason why the main orientation of the crystal texture of the Co—Ni-based alloy according to this embodiment does not change by heat treatment is that the Co—Ni-based alloy according to this embodiment is an alloy which expresses the Suzuki effect by undergoing heat treatment.
  • the Suzuki effect is one of the interactions between a dislocation and a solute atom.
  • Dislocations in a face-centered cubic lattice (fcc) alloy and a hexagonal close-packed lattice (hcp) alloy are extended dislocations in many cases, and hence an extended dislocation portion has a different energy state to a certain extent from a surrounding portion, and solute atoms are segregated in the extended dislocation portion.
  • fcc face-centered cubic lattice
  • hcp hexagonal close-packed lattice
  • the interaction between a dislocation and a solute atom is generally called a chemical interaction or the Suzuki effect.
  • the expression of the Suzuki effect contributes to improving mechanical characteristics such as the hardness and tensile strength of an alloy.
  • dislocations when dislocations are locally pinned by solute atoms and by dislocations of different slip planes, the dislocations do not slip easily because of the pinning, but the dislocations may project between pinned portions and the dislocations are not locked very strongly.
  • the inventors of the present invention have made various studies. As a result, the inventors have found that the Suzuki effect can be expressed in the Co—Ni-based alloy according to this embodiment, and have found that a Co—Ni-based alloy having excellent characteristics can be provided by taking advantage of the Suzuki effect.
  • formed in the alloy is a texture in which, in region A having a high dislocation density (high-density dislocation region), there exist a plurality of regions B each having a low dislocation density (low-density dislocation regions) in which extended dislocations are induced by the Suzuki effect, forming a state in which the dislocations do not recover.
  • region A having a high dislocation density high-density dislocation region
  • regions B each having a low dislocation density (low-density dislocation regions) in which extended dislocations are induced by the Suzuki effect forming a state in which the dislocations do not recover.
  • the dislocations recover slowly, and hence recrystallized grains grow slowly.
  • Dislocations are not extended in the high dislocation density region A, and hence this region serves as a grain core for developing recrystallization, but the plurality of low-density dislocation regions B contribute to preventing the rapid progress of grain growth, thereby forming fine recrystallized grains. Further, in the regions B in which dislocations are extended owing to the Suzuki effect and the dislocations recover slowly, even if recrystallization develops, recrystallized grains grow while the crystal texture of the regions B is maintained. Thus, in the Co—Ni-based alloy according to this embodiment, the main orientation of the crystal texture before heat treatment can remain the same even after recrystallization is caused by the heat treatment.
  • the Co—Ni-based alloy according to this embodiment include Co, Ni, Cr, and Mo, have fine regions a and deformation twins b, and have a crystal texture in which the deformation twins b are separated by the fine regions a.
  • FIG. 6 shows a transmission electron microscope (TEM) bright-field image photograph of the crystal texture of a Co—Ni-based alloy sample obtained in an Example described below.
  • FIG. 7 shows TEM bright-field image photographs taken by partially magnifying the crystal texture shown in FIG. 6 . Note that the Co—Ni-based alloy shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 is formed by applying cold rolling at a reduction ratio of 70%. In regions A and B in FIG.
