Description

A program has been conducted on the effects of Mg in cast alloy 718. The results show that small amounts of Mg improves impact toughness and decreases Nb segregation by decreasing secondary dendrite arm spacing which results in less and smaller interdendritic Laves and MC eutectics. Small amounts of Mg produce a more spheroidal as well as a more dispersive MC phase. Impact toughness was found to be related to the refinement of interdendritic segregation of Nb which affects the size, quantity and morphology of Laves and MC phases
