Composition rules of Ni-base single crystal superalloys and its influence on creep properties via a cluster formula approach

Abstract The present work investigated the composition evolution of the TMS series of Ni-base single crystal (SC) superalloys in light of the cluster formula approach systematically. The cluster formula of SC superalloys could be expressed with $${[}\overline{{{\text{Al}}}} {-} \overline{{{\text{Ni}...
