Abstract

A subject for the invention is to diminish the occurrence of streak-type segregation in producing a material comprising a Ni-based superalloy. The invention relates to a Ni-based superalloy having excellent unsusceptibility to segregation, characterized by comprising: 0.005 to 0.15 mass % of C; 8 to 22 mass % of Cr; 5 to 30 mass % of Co; equal or greater than 1 and less than 9 mass % of Mo; 5 to 21 mass % of W; 0.1 to 2.0 mass % of Al; 0.3 to 2.5 mass % of Ti; up to 0.015 mass % of B; and up to 0.01 mass % of Mg, with the remainder comprising Ni and unavoidable impurities.

Claims (12)

1. A Ni-based superalloy, consisting of: 0.005 to 0.15 mass % of C; 8 to 15 mass % of Cr; 5 to 30 mass % of Co; equal to or greater than 3.4 and less than 9 mass % of Mo; 7 to 21 mass % of W; 0.1 to 2.0 mass % of Al; 0.3 to 2.5 mass % of Ti; up to 0.015 mass % of B; 0.001 to 0.005 mass % of S; 0.0005 to 0.0022 mass % of Mg; 0.01 to 0.02 mass % of Si; one or the two of Nb and Ta in such a total amount as to result in Nb+½Ta≦1.5 mass %, and optionally one or more elements selected from the group consisting of Zr and Hf, with the remainder being Ni and unavoidable impurities.

2. The Ni-based superalloy according to claim 1 ,

wherein the Ni-based superalloy is for use as a material for a forging as a generator member or for a casting as a generator member.

3. The Ni-based superalloy according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of Cr is from 10 to 15 mass %.

4. The Ni-based superalloy according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of C is from 0.01 to 0.08 mass %.

5. The Ni-based superalloy according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of Co is from 12 to 30 mass %.

6. The Ni-based superalloy according to claim 1 , wherein an amount of Mg combines with an amount of S to form a sulfide.

7. A Ni-based superalloy, consisting of: 0.005 to 0.15 mass % of C; 10.2 to 15 mass % of Cr; 5 to 30 mass % of Co; equal to or greater than 1 and less than 9 mass % of Mo; 7 to 21 mass % of W; 0.1 to 2.0 mass % of Al; 0.3 to 2.5 mass % of Ti; up to 0.015 mass % of B; 0.001 to 0.005 mass % of S; 0.0005 to 0.0022 mass % of Mg; 0.01 to 0.02 mass % of Si; and optionally one or more elements selected from the group consisting of Zr, Hf, Nb and Ta, with the remainder being Ni and unavoidable impurities,

wherein the total content of Mo+W is more than 10%.

8. The Ni-based superalloy according to claim 7 , wherein the amount of Mo is equal to or greater than 3 and less than 9 mass %.

9. The Ni-based superalloy according to claim 7 , wherein the amount of Al is 0.1 to 1.5 mass %.

10. A Ni-based superalloy, consisting of: 0.005 to 0.15 mass % of C; 8 to 15 mass % of Cr; 5 to 30 mass % of Co; equal to or greater than 3.4 and less than 9 mass % of Mo; 7 to 21 mass % of W; 0.1 to 2.0 mass % of Al; 0.3 to 2.5 mass % of Ti; up to 0.015 mass % of B; 0.001 to 0.005 mass % of S; 0.0005 to 0.0022 mass % of Mg; 0.01 to 0.02 mass % of Si; one or the two of Nb and Ta in such a total amount as to result in Nb+½Ta≦1.5 mass %, and one or the two of up to 0.2 mass % of Zr and up to 0.8 mass % of Hf, with the remainder being Ni and unavoidable impurities.
