Abstract: A free-cutting Ni-base heat-resistant alloy excellent in the high-temperature strength and corrosion resistance was proposed. The alloy contains Ni as a major component, 0.01 to 0.3 wt % of C and 14 to 35 wt % of Cr, and further contains at least one element selected from Ti, Zr and Hf in a total amount of 0.1 to 6 wt %, and S in an amount of 0.015 to 0.5 wt %. The alloy has dispersed in the matrix thereof a machinability improving compound phase, where such phase contains any one of Ti, Zr and Hf as a major constituent of the metal elements, essentially contains C and either S or Se as a binding component for such metal elements. The alloy also satisfies the relations of WTi+0.53WZr+0.27WHf>2WC+0.75WS and WC>0.37WS, where WTi represents Ti content (wt %), WZr represents Zr content (wt %), WHf represents Hf content (wt %), WC represents C content (wt %) and WS represents S content (wt %).

Abstract: A fusion weldable superalloy containing 0.005-0.5 wt. % scandium. In one embodiment, the superalloy may have a composition similar to IN-939 alloy, but having added scandium and having only 0.005-0.040 wt. % zirconium. A gas turbine component may be formed by an investment casting of such a scandium-containing superalloy, and may include a fusion weld repaired area. A scandium-containing nickel-based superalloy coated with an MCrAlY bond coat will have improved cyclic oxidation resistance due to the sulfur-gettering effect of the scandium.

Abstract: Nickel aluminum alloys are welded utilizing a nickel based alloy containing zirconium but substantially free of titanium and niobium which reduces the tendency to crack.
