ABSTRACT:
Nickel base superalloys which contain niobium (columbium) to promote gamma double prime strengthening are improved by replacing the niobium with tantalum on an atom-for-atom basis and then heat treating the new alloy at temperatures in excess of those conventionally used for superalloys which include niobium. The resultant tantalum-bearing alloys are found to exhibit increased strength and greater phase stability than corresponding niobium-bearing alloys.
