Description

Reactive atomization and deposition (RAD) is a relatively new processing technique that has been developed to synthesize dispersion-strengthened materials. In this process, atomization, in-situ reaction, and consolidation are combined into a single step by spray atomization and deposition equipment using N2-O2 gas. The matrix material selected for this study is a Ni3Al+Y+B alloy. The evolution of spheroidal grain morphology, banded structure, and γ+γ' mosaic structure is discussed. Anticipated dispersoids, such as Y2O3, Al2O3 and Y3Al5O12 are identified using transmission electron microscopy. Dislocation pile-up and grain boundary pinning are observed in the vicinity of oxide dispersoids. The thermal stability of the RAD processed materials increases with increasing oxygen content in the atomization gas
