摘要
The effect of boron addition(0.010,0.015,and 0.020 wt.%)on the microstructure and mechanical properties of an additively manufactured superalloy was examined.The as-built microstructure was investigated by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy.The results demonstrate that boron precipitates as M_(3)B_(2)boride at the grain boundary.The increase in boron content increases the amount ofγ/γ′eutectic and the size and fraction of M_(3)B_(2)boride.Boron creates nanoscale fine borides at grain boundaries,which significantly reinforces grain boundaries.The mechanical property analysis indicated that the addition of boron improved the tensile ductility at 760℃and stress rupture properties at 760℃/780 MPa.However,with the excessive addition of boron,the mechanical property was reduced.
