The phase evolution of Allvac® alloy 718Plus® has been determined experimentally via construction of time-temperaturetransformation (TTT) and continuous-cooling-transformation (CCT) curves based on identifying the various phases, their sizes and volume fractions along with distributions as they evolved during thermal treatment. The solution temperature range of interand intra-granular phases and of have been characterized via detailed microstructural investigations. The phase solvus of alloy 718Plus determined by dissolution during isothermal hold for 0.1 hours ranges between 1010-1071C, with clear distinctions between solutioning of grain boundary and complete solutioning. The temperature where the intergranular or grain boundary particles dissolve after 0.1 hours in the investigated material is 1015C. At this temperature, grain growth occurs owing to a lack of pinning by grain boundary phase particles. However, it is only at 1065C, that a complete dissolution of all particles has been observed. The nose of the TTT curve for occurs at about 843C for start (25 % transformation) and end of transformation (100% transformation). The temperature ranges at which precipitation hardening (704-788C), coarsening (843C) and over aging (898C) take place in the alloy have been located by correlating the TTT and the time-temperature-hardness (TTH) curves. This investigation provides a solid basis for practical processing of the alloy, to be used as a candidate material for 700C applications.Allvac and 718Plus are registered trademarks of ATI Properties, Inc.
