In Ni-13.0at%Si-3.1at%Fe alloy, when γ/γ’ two-phase microstructure formed at 1123 K is
isothermally heated at 923 K which is lower than the temperature where the initial γ/γ’ microstructure
forms, the phase-separation of γ/γ’ precipitate phase occurs and γ particles newly appear in each
cuboidal γ’ precipitate. While in Ni-10.2at%Al-10.8at%Fe alloy, when γ/γ’ two-phase microstructure
formed at 1023 K is isothermally heated at 1123 K which is higher than the temperature where the
initial γ/γ’ microstructure forms, the phase-separation of γ’ precipitate phase takes place and γ
particles newly appear in each cuboidal γ’ precipitate. Such appearance of new γ particles in γ’
precipitates can be explained by the difference in the volume fraction of γ phase that should exist in
the γ/γ’ two-phase system depending on the heating temperature.
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.
