Kirkendall porosity that forms during interdiffusion in a diffusion couple of nickel-base superalloy CMSX-10 with pure nickel is investigated. The diffusion experiments are conducted at a temperature of 1250 °C, where the strengthening ƴ'-phase ist partially dissolved. The porosity is studied by X-ray sub-μ tomography with a spatial resolution of about 0.35³ μm³ at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in Grenoble, France. It is found that depending on the distance from the interface the Kirkendall pores take different shapes: octahedral, rounded pyramidal, drop shaped, dendritic, pear shaped, and joint shapes. Such a variety of pore morphologies indicates a complex multistage process of porosity nucleation and growth under vacancy supersaturation of different degrees. The experimental findings are interpreted on the basis of the results of diffusion modeling. It is shown that the kinetics of porosity growth is essentially influenced by the dissolution of the ƴ'-phase.
A diffusion couple between directionally solidified nickel and the single crystal Ni-base superalloy CMSX-10 was produced by hot pressing in vacuum. The diffusion couples were heat treated at temperatures between 1050 and 1250 °C. The exposed samples were characterized by SEM/EBSD/EPMA. The interdiffusion results in dissolution of the c¢-Ni3 Al in the superalloy and in growth of nickel grains towards CMSX-10. Rapid diffusion of aluminum from the superalloy into pure nickel leads to a significant formation of pores in the superalloy. The interdiffusion processes were modelled using the finite-element simulation software DICTRA with the databases TCNi5 and MobNi2, tailored specially for Ni-base superalloys. The effect of alloying elements on the interdiffusion profiles is discussed in terms of alloy thermodynamics. The calculated element concentration profiles are in good agreement with the EPMA measurements.
The interdiffusion modeling correctly predicts the shapes of the concentration profiles, e.g. kinks on the Al and Ti profiles in the vicinity of the original interface in the joint. The calculation predicts with reasonable accuracy the extent and the location of the Kirkendall porosity.
Interdiffusion in the Face-Centered Cubic Phase of the Co-Al-W-Ta System Between 1090 and 1240 °C
(2018)
Interdiffusion of Al, W, Ta and Co in a Co-base alloy at temperatures between 1090 and 1240 °C has been investigated. The interdiffusion coefficients were found to be close to those reported for these elements in Ni-base alloys. Combining the diffusion simulation software DICTRA with the Ni-base diffusion databases TCNi5 and MobNi3, the interdiffusion profiles of Co, Al W, and Ta were modeled for Co9Al8W2Ta/Co diffusion couples annealed at different temperatures and for different times. The results show that interdiffusion in the Co-Al-W-Ta alloys can be modeled reasonably well using the available commercial databases for thermodynamics and kinetics of Ni-base systems.
