In this study, the effect of time on the microstructural evolution, element distribution, precipitated phases, and microhardness of diffusion brazed Nicrofer 5520 superalloy using a BNi-9 interlayer was investigated. The results showed that an appropriate holding time led to complete isothermal solidification, lower density of precipitated phases, and more uniform microhardness.
In the present study, the effect of time on the microstructural evolution, distribution of elements, type of precipitated phases, and microhardness of diffusion brazed Nicrofer 5520 superalloy using a BNi-9 (Ni-15%Cr-3.7%B) interlayer was investigated. The diffusion brazing was carried out at 1120 degrees C for seven different holding times by using a 38 mm thick interlayer. The results indicated that the holding time of 30 min was sufficient for complete isothermal solidification. The eutectic gamma solid solution, Ni-rich borides, and Cr-Mo-rich borides were identified near the bond center before the completion of isothermal solidification, (Ni, Mo, Cr)-rich borides and Cr-Ni-Mo-Fe carbides with different mor-phologies were found in the diffusion affected zone (DAZ). In the holding time longer than 30 min and, the volume fraction of the precipitated phases in the DAZ decreased, and they transformed into rounder particles. Accordingly, the chemical composition of the inter -layer became more homogeneous, resulting in a lower DAZ phases' density that is happened over the higher brazing times. As the holding time was increased, the chemical composition in the interlayer became more similar to the base metal, and the micro -hardness in the bond zone and its surrounding became more uniform.(c) 2022 The Authors.
