“…Therefore, powders surface characterization lay the foundation to clarify the mechanism of PPB and further optimize the microstructure. Previous studies have been carried out to address the powders surface microstructure, oxidation characteristics, chemical state, degassing behavior [19][20][21][22][23][24] . So far, little research has been published on surface precipitate analysis of Ni-base superalloy powders.…”

Powders surface precipitate has strong relations with the microstructure and properties of powder metallurgy components. Morphology, element distribution and crystal structure of the precipitate at gas atomized Ni-base superalloy powders surface were investigated. Results show that the precipitate is lamelliform and prefers to form at grain boundaries and interdendrite regions than dendrite arms. With powders size decreasing, the precipitate shape observed from surface varies from strip to rectangular and to nearly round, and the precipitate density increases, measured 17.75 μm−2, 21.42 μm−2, 26.50 μm−2 at nearly 45μm, 30μm and 10μm powders surface respectively, but the precipitate average size changes conversely, that is 228nm, 193nm, 77nm respectively. The precipitate enriches in high melting point elements Ti, Nb, Mo, W, Zr and poor in low melting point elements Ni, Cr, Co, Al. Crystal structure analysis reveals that the precipitate is MC, M23C6 or M6C carbide.
