  2. Superalloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superalloy

    Superalloy development relies on chemical and process innovations. Superalloys develop high temperature strength through solid solution strengthening and precipitation strengthening from secondary phase precipitates such as gamma prime and carbides. Oxidation or corrosion resistance is provided by elements such as aluminium and chromium.

  3. Inconel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inconel

    In age-hardening or precipitation-strengthening varieties, small amounts of niobium combine with nickel to form the intermetallic compound Ni 3 Nb or gamma double prime (γ″). Gamma prime forms small cubic crystals that inhibit slip and creep effectively at elevated temperatures. The formation of gamma-prime crystals increases over time ...

  4. Nickel aluminide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel_aluminide

    Nickel aluminide refers to either of two widely used intermetallic compounds, Ni 3 Al or NiAl, but the term is sometimes used to refer to any nickel–aluminium alloy. These alloys are widely used because of their high strength even at high temperature, low density, corrosion resistance, and ease of production. [1]

  5. Creep (deformation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creep_(deformation)

    The term ‘superalloy’ generally refers to austenitic nickel-, iron-, or cobalt-based alloys that use either γ′ or γ″ precipitation strengthening to maintain strength at high temperature. The γ′ phase is a cubic L1 2-structure Ni 3 (Al,Ti,Ta,Nb) phase that produces cuboidal precipitates. Superalloys often have a high (60–75% ...

  6. Precipitation (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precipitation_(chemistry)

    An example would be the synthesis of Cr 3+ tetraphenylporphyrin chloride: water is added to the dimethylformamide (DMF) solution in which the reaction occurred, and the product precipitates. [10] Precipitation is useful in purifying many other products: e.g. , crude bmim -Cl is taken up in acetonitrile , and dropped into ethyl acetate , where ...

  7. Gas turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_turbine

    The gamma (γ) FCC nickel is alloyed with aluminum and titanium in order to precipitate a uniform dispersion of the coherent Ni 3 (Al,Ti) gamma-prime (γ') phases. The finely dispersed γ' precipitates impede dislocation motion and introduce a threshold stress, increasing the stress required for the onset of creep.

    The trucks were carrying about 25,000 liters of pesticides and 76 tons of sulfuric acid, according to the National Agency for Water and Basic Sanitation, raising concerns about environmental damage.

  9. Ostwald ripening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ostwald_ripening

    Oil droplets in pastis mixed with water grow by Ostwald ripening. One example of Ostwald ripening is the re-crystallization of water within ice cream which gives old ice cream a gritty, crunchy texture. Larger ice crystals grow at the expense of smaller ones within the ice cream, creating a coarser texture.
