Abstract
The structure and mechanical properties of alloy 718 prepared from argon atomized powder have been investigated for a wide range of extrusion ratios and temperatures. The tensile and stress-rupture properties of extruded bar are sensitive to heat treatment. Notch ductility can be conferred through appropriate combination of solution anneal and intermediate temperature age. Structural evaluation shows that such treatment provides a uniform grain structure together with a coarseγ′’ precipitate dispersion and small amounts of δ Ni3Cb phase at grain boundaries.
