Considerable work has been performed on N iAI over the past three decades, with rapid growth in research on this intermetallic occurring in the past few years because of recent interest in this material for electronic and high temperature structural applications. However, many physical properties and the controlling fracture and deformation mechanisms over certain temperature regimes are still debated. This is due in part to the incomplete characterisation of many of the alloys previously investigated. Fragmentary data on processing conditions, chemistry, microstructure, and the apparent difficulty in accurately measuring composition have made direct comparison between individual studies sometimes tenuous. The purpose of this review is to summarise all available mechanical and pertinent physical properties of NiAI, stressing the most recent investigations, in an attempt to understand the behaviour of NiAI and its alloys over a broad temperature range.1MR/247

IN11IODUCTIONThe high-pressure turbine rotor is subjected to the most demanding conditions in the turbine engine and places a stringent set of requirements on the materials used in that application.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
