摘要
The influence of Mo on the coarsening behavior of L12-precipitates in chemically complex alloys (CCAs) was thoroughly investigated. Mo addition significantly impacted the morphology, misfit, and microstructural stability of L12-precipitates during aging treatment. Mo incorporation into the B sublattice sites of L12-precipitates (along with Al and Ti) increased their volume fraction and solvus temperature. It also weakened the segregation of solutes between the FCC-matrix and L12-precipitates, resulting in reduced misfit. However, during the aging processing, the misfits in all three CCAs continuously increased. Quantitative analysis revealed that a misfit of approximately 0.5 % yielded cubic morphology of L12-precipitate for CCAs with positive misfits. Further coarsening kinetics studies unveiled a transition from initial matrix-diffusion controlled coarsening to interface-reaction controlled coarsening. Notably, Mo addition prolonged the matrix-diffusion controlled stage and delayed the transition to interface-reaction controlled coarsening. These findings provide valuable insights that can guide future alloy design and heat treatment strategies to optimize the high-temperature structural performance of L12-precipitate CCAs.
