Research on application of hot isostatic pressing technology in the field of nickel-based cast superalloys

Abstract

Nickel-based cast superalloy is one of the main materials applied in the manufacture of aeroengine and gas turbine,and it is widely applied in aerospace,energy industry and shipbuilding industries etc.The rapid development of modern aviation industry is inseparable from the rapid improvement of the comprehensive performance of superalloys, and the application of hot isostatic pressing technology in the field of nickel-based casting superalloys plays a pivotal role in improving the comprehensive performance of nickel-based casting superalloys. In this paper, the working principle and application history of hot isostatic pressing technology were introduced. The research and application status of hot isostatic pressing technology in the field of nickel-based casting superalloys was summarized. The research on the effect of hot isostatic pressing on the densification mechanism and microstructure properties of cast superalloys, research on hot isostatic pressing on the microstructure repair of nickel-based cast superalloys in long-term service, and research on the realization of the diffusion bonding of two nickel-based superalloys progress are highlighted and elaborated. At the same time, some problems in the research of hot isostatic pressing technology and the development trend of domestic hot isostatic pressing technology in the field of nickel-based cast superalloys were pointed out.
