Abstract
A nickel base superalloy composition useful in the cast+HIP+heat treated condition is described. Articles having the invention composition have properties which are comparable to similarly processed IN718 articles. The invention alloys have an as-cast microstructure which is substantially free from Laves phase, even at slow solidification rates. As a result, the alloys are significantly more weldable than IN718. This desirable microstructure is achieved by modifications of the chromium, molybdenum, iron, and nickel contents compared to the typical IN718 composition.
