IntroductionWhat is Superalloy?
A superalloy is a metallic alloy which can be used at high temperatures, often in excess of 0.7 Tm ( absolute
melting temperature)
Superalloy is an alloy that exhibits excellent mechanical strength and creep resistance at high temperatures.
Alloying additions for solution strengthening is by addition of lower amount of W, Mo, Ta, Nb & for Precipitation hardening by addition of of g and g’ formers like Ti, Al & Nb.
Examples of such alloys are Hastelloy, Inconel, Waspaloy, Rene alloys, Haynes alloys, Incoloy, MP98T, TMS alloys, and CMSX single crystal alloys.

Development of Super Alloys
Superalloys develop high temperature strength through Solid solution strengthening(SSS).
SSS is a type of alloying that can be used to improve the strength of the metals. It is the hardening mechanism process.
The technique works by adding atoms of one element (alloying element) to the crystalline lattice of another element (the base metal).

Iron based Super Alloys:(a) 9-38 % nickel(b) 15-22 % chromium(c) 32-67 % ironCommon type of Iron based alloy is Incoloy series. Iron based Super alloys are characterised by high temperature as well
as room temperature strength.
Apart from this, it will have good resistance to creep , oxidation, corrosion and wear.
Oxidation resistance increases with chromium content.

Cobalt based Super alloys:
(a) Up to 35% nickel(b) 19-30 % chromium(c) 30-65 % cobaltCobalt based alloys can retain their strength at high temperature but they are not as strong as nickel based alloys.

Nickel based alloys:
(a) 38-76% nickel(b) Up to 27 % chromium(c) Up to 20 % cobalt.Some of the common type of nickel based alloysare Nimonic, Hastelloy and Inconel.These are the most common types of Superalloy which are widely used in turbine blades

Gamma (g)The continuous matrix (called gamma) is an face-centered-cubic (FCC) nickel-based austenitic phase that usually contains a high percentage of solid-solution elements such as Co, Cr, Mo, and W.

Gamma Prime (g') The primary strengthening phase in nickel-based superalloys is
Ni3(Al,Ti), and is called gamma prime (g '). It is a coherently precipitating phase (i.e., the crystal planes of the precipitate are in registry with the gamma matrix) with an ordered FCC crystal structure.

Carbides
Carbon, added at levels of 0.05-0.2%, combines with reactive elements such as titanium, tantalum, and hafnium to form carbides (e.g., TiC, TaC, or HfC). During heat treatment and service, these begin to decompose and form lower carbides such as M23C6 and M6C, which tend to form on the grain boundaries. These common carbides all have an fcc crystal structure.
The general opinion is that in superalloys with grain boundaries, carbides are beneficial by increasing rupture strength
at high tempeature.

Topologically Close-Packed PhasesThese are generally undesirable, brittle phases that can form during heat treatment or service.
TCPs (Sigma, Mu, Laves, etc.) usually form as plates (which appear as needles on a single-plane microstructure).
TCPs are potentially damaging for two reasons: they tie up g and g ' strengthening elements in a non-useful form, thus reducing creep strength, and they can act as crack initiators because of their brittle nature.
