Effect of Almandine on Microstructure and Corrosion properties of Nickel super alloy (K500) Composite for Aerospace Gas Turbine Application

Computational Study of Crystallography, Defects, Ion Migration and Dopants in Almandine Garnet

“…It is also a good abrasive for sandblasting [7], surface grinding [8], and water jet cutting [9]. Furthermore, it is used as a reinforcement material to enhance the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of alloys [10].…”

“…Several experimental studies [11][12][13][14][15] have been carried out on almandine garnet to measure its enthalpy of formation [16], examine its cation diffusion [17], study the effects of chemical weathering [18], and determine the temperature-dependent disordered configurations [19]. An experimental work carried out by Jain et al [10] indicates that the metal matrix composite reinforced with almandine garnet enhances its mechanical property and corrosion resistance than that in the parental Ni alloy. The resultant composite is expected to be suitable for aerospace gas turbine applications [10].…”

Electrical conductivities of almandine garnet, pyrope, and their mixed composites were measured using complex impedance spectroscopy by Romano et al [20].…”
