Abstract

The objective of this work is to mimic the microstructure and strengthening mechanisms of Ni-based superalloys in a new group of high-temperature alloys based on the system Pt-Al. The elements Cr and Ni were chosen as further alloying components. Having a face-centered cubic (fcc) crystal structure with an Ll2-ordered and coherently embedded phase, these new alloys should increase creep and corrosion resistance beyond Ni-based superalloys. After arc melting and heat treatment, the alloys were investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). In the aged condition, the alloy composition 13 at. pct Al, 3 at. pct Cr, 7 at. pct Ni, and balance Pt showed the most promising microstructure with cubical precipitates, 30 pct precipitate volume fraction, and a lattice misfit of about −0.1 pct at room temperature.
