Abstract: A high performance Ni-Al-Mo-B system cast Ni_3Al base alloy, named Alloy IC6, has been developed for advanced gas turbine blades and vanes. The alloy has high strength and ductility from room temperature to 1100℃ as well as excellent creep resistance over a wide temperature range of 760℃ to 1100℃ . The superior mechanical properties of this alloy.may be attributed to (1) solid solution hardening by the large amount of Mo addition , (2)second phase strengthening by γ-phase and other minor phases that precipitate in various temperature ranges, (3) rearrangement of γ-phase in the form of raft structure during creep deformation , (4) high-density misfit dislocation networks at the γ /γ' interfaces that form due to a high value ofγ /γ ' misfit .
