ABSTRACT:
According to this invention, the oxidation resistance of alumina scale forming nickel based superalloys is significantly improved by controlling the level of sulfur in the alloy composition. According to one preferred embodiment of the invention, the superalloys contain less than 5 parts per million, by weight, of sulfur. Most preferably, they contain less than 2 parts per million, by weight, of sulfur.
