Definitions

  • This invention relates to cobalt base alloys suitable for use at elevated temperatures and in oxidizing environments. More particularly, the present invention is directed to chromium-containing cobalt base alloys characterized by excellent oxidation resistance at temperatures of 1200 C. and above.
  • Cobalt base alloys have been employed in the past in high temperature applications on account of their advantageous mechanical properties under such conditions but on account of their rather poor resistance to oxidation at high temperature the use of such alloys has been severely restricted.
  • the oxidation of cobalt base alloys (and also that of the generally more oxidation resistant nickel base alloys) has been extremely poor at temperatures of 1200 C. and above.
  • This situation is unfortunate since at the present time there are many applications, e.g. jet aircraft engine components, in which cobalt base alloys could be used to great advantage if the oxidation resistance of these alloys, at temperatures of 1200 C. and above, could be improved.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show comparative oxidation data in the form of graphs for various alloys including alloys in accordance with the present invention
  • FIG. 3 shows, in the form of a graph, mechanical data for an alloy of the present invention.
  • a cobalt base alloy in accordance with the present invention contains at least 35% Co and about:
  • the alloy additionally contains manganese in an amount up to about 2% and is characterized by a further improve- 3,591,371 Patented July 6, 1971 ment in oxidation resistance under cyclic conditions, and improved mechanical properties.
  • the preferred manganese content is from about 0.4 to 1%.
  • cobalt base alloys containing from about 15 to 25% chromium can be remarkably improved in oxidation resistance at high temperatures by the addition of both silicon and lanthanum in controlled amounts when the tungsten content of the alloy is kept below about 3%.
  • the tungsten content should be less than 1% and for optimum results the tungsten content should be less than 0.1%, and preferably the alloy is tungsten-free.
  • the inclusion of manganese in amounts up to about 2% further enhances the oxidation resistance.
  • a particularly preferred alloy compositional range in accordance with the present invention is as follows:
  • a specific preferred alloy composition is 20% Cr, 0.3 Si, 0.1% La, 0.5% Mn, Ni, balance Co.
  • the alloy of the present invention can contain minor amounts of elements ordinarily present in commercial cobalt base alloys.
  • iron can be present up to about 10% and molybdenum up to about 1%, however it is preferred that the alloy be essentially free of molybdenum.
  • the isothermal tests involved exposing alloy samples to flowing dry air at a constant temperature and recording the weight gain of the samples as a function of time.
  • the samples were in the form of hot rolled sheet 2 mm. thick. Before testing the samples were solution treated for one hour at 1080 C. in argon and quenched in brine.
  • compositions of the alloys are shown in Table I below:
  • the mechanical properties of the alloy of the present invention shows its suitability as a matrix metal for composite materials.
  • An alloy in accordance with claim 1 containing up to 2% manganese by weight and less than 1% each of tungsten and molybdenum by weight.
