Conclusions
-
1.
The addition of a substantial amount of cobalt (at least 10–12%) to a nickel alloy containing 10% Cr, 5–10% Mo, and 5% W, with a total concentration of Ti+Al≥5%, produces an alloy with extremely high relaxation resistance at temperatures up to 850°.
-
2.
Alloy KhN62MVKYu, with 5% Co, has a much lower relaxation resistance. The relaxation resistance at 800–850° can be increased considerably by means of repeated loading (holding).
-
3.
For the cobalt-containing alloys tested there is no correlation between the relaxation and creep characteristics (long-term strength) at high temperatures.
