Because of the importance and value of Superalloy, In this research has been treid to remelting scrap of gas turbine blades cobalt based Superalloy X-45, In order to restore it to the cycle of consumption. For this purpose, scraps were remelted under different conditions, for example changing the atmosphere, changing slag composition, changing type of the furnace for remelting and changing time of remelting process. Then in order to investigate effect of the above factors, microstructure were studied by optical microscope and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) And also in order to investigate changings of element composition, chemical analysis were examined by atomic absorption analysis and... 

Superalloys are widely used in aerospace and power industries due to the good performance at high temperatures for examples gas turbines, steam turbines and aircraft components. In addition to the turbines cobalt-base superalloys are used in medical implants such as knee and hip joints. The main strengths of the superalloys are heat-resistant, retaining their high mechanical and chemical properties at high temperatures, high melting temperatures, high corrosion resistance, resistance to thermal fatigue, thermal shock, creep, and erosion. Because of difficult to machine properties of superalloys, grinding is one of the effective methods for machining superalloys. The surface integrity of the... 

Stainless steels have many applications in different industries like chemistry, medicine and food production. So for using these alloys it is necessary to join them with appropriate method. In this research, microstructure-mechanical properties relationship of 304LC austenitic stainless steel transient liquid phase bonded using a Co-based interlayer was investigated. For this purpose, bonding was conducted at 1180 ℃ for different holding times. Microstructure of the joints was evaluated by optical microscopy (OM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The results showed that isothermal solidification (IS) was completed within 1800s and no intermetallic compound was formed in the joint area... 

Recent research suggests that the electrochemical deposition of cobalt-based binary alloys, such as cobalt-tungsten and cobalt-iron, can lead to the formation of amorphous structures in the coatings. Theoretical studies suggest that these structures are equivalent to structures created by the melt cooling of the alloy at speeds of about 〖10〗^10 Kelvin per second. The formation of a glass phase can significantly increase the abrasion resistance and corrosion resistance of these coatings. Empirical studies show that the ability of the glass to become glassy, or more precisely, the transition from crystalline to amorphous, is largely a function of the chemical composition. Simulation of... 

The repair and production of Ni-based and Co-based superalloy parts have high importance in Oil and Gas, and Aerospace industries. Due to this issue, Transient Liquid Phase bonding is one of the most reliable welding methods for repair parts and fabricating new parts.In the present study, creep properties of similar transient liquid phase bonding of FSX-414 Co-based superalloy has been investigated and compared with creep properties of the un-bonded base metal. Firstly, the optimum condition of the bonding process was resulted from microstructural observations from different bonding conditions. Then, cylindrical samples for the aim of creep test specimens were fabricated in two different...
