effects of eta phase
(OP)
I need to know what is the effect of eta phase on Ni-base super alloys? is it detrimental or beneficial to the mechanical properties of the alloy? what are the mechanical properties of eta itself? thank you for your time and consideration.





RE: effects of eta phase
Why do you want to know the properties of the eta phase by itself? Intermetallic particles are extremely tiny, with diameters around 10 micrometers or less, and their influence on bulk mechanical properties is a complex situation based on size, morphology, orientation, degree of lattice disregistry, etc. In order to obtain information on the mechanical properties of Ni3Ti, a bulk sample would need to be created, which will bear little resemblance to the plate-like particles present in superalloys.
