Nickel-base superalloy
A nickel-base superalloy that includes 6.55% to 7.15% aluminum, 3.3% to 3.7% titanium, 1.2% to 1.7% tantalum, and 0.8% to 1.0% niobium, such that a combined atomic percentage of the aluminum, the titanium, the tantalum and the niobium is between 12.65% and 13.15% to provide substantially 51% to 53% by volume of gamma prime precipitates.
