Abstract: In comparison with conventional superalloys,no carbide but significant amount of γ+M_3B_2 and γ+γ′ eutectics were revealed to precipitate in the stable as-cast structure of Ni-base superalloy M91 which is abundant in B and minfied in C.During solidification of the superalloy,the residual liquid is much less and the tendency to porousness is inconsiderable.This superalloy seems to be available for turbine blade and other integral cast- ings under intermediate temperature and long-term services.

Key words: superalloy, microstructure, solidification
