The electronic structure, interatomic bonding, and mechanical properties of two supercell models of Ni-based superalloys are calculated using ab initio density functional theory methods. The alloys, Haynes282 and Inconel740, are face-centered cubic lattices with 864 atoms and eleven elements. These multi-component alloys have very complex electronic structure, bonding and partial-charge distributions depending on the composition and strength of the local bonding environment. We employ the novel concept of total bond order density (TBOD) and its partial components (PBOD) to ascertain the internal cohesion that controls the intricate balance between the propensity of metallic bonding between Ni, Cr and Co, and the strong bonds with C and Al. We find Inconel740 has slightly stronger mechanical properties than Haynes282. Both Inconel740 and Haynes282 show ductile natures based on Poisson’s ratio. Poisson’s ratio shows marginal correlation with the TBOD. Comparison with more conventional high entropy alloys with equal components are discussed.
