Advances in Superalloys and High Temperature Intermetallics

  • Chapter
Advanced Topics in Materials Science and Engineering

Abstract

High temperature structural materials have been a major determining factor for economic and military strength as a result of their critical nature in aircraft and aerospace systems. In order to meet the demands imposed by both military and commercial end users, the development and commercialization of advanced high temperature structural materials must anticipate the future requirements of advanced propulsion technology. To date, nickel and iron-base superalloys have been the materials of choice in critical high temperature structural applications. The evolution of these materials, as measured in terms of increased effective use temperature, has largely kept pace with the demands of the jet turbine industry. However, as a consequence of the conservative nature of the jet turbine industry, no truly new class of high temperature structural materials have found acceptance within the jet turbine engine since its appearance.
