Title: Nickel-base superalloy systems

Abstract

This patent describes a substantially iron-free nickel-base alloy. It comprises (in weight percent): about 12% to 24% chromium, about 5% to 20% cobalt; and 1% to 8.5% of at least one member of the group consisting of molybdenum, tungsten and rhenium; about 2% to 23% tantalum; about 0.003% to 0.05% boron; less than about 1% iron; and the balance essentially nickel the alloy having a rupture life of at least 100 hours at a stress of 90 ksi at 1300{degrees}F. and a substantial volume fraction of gamma double prime phase.
