Coarsening behavior of γ′ precipitates in the dendritic regions of a Ni3Al base alloy containing chromium, molybdenum, zirconium and boron was investigated. Annealing treatment was performed up to 50 h at 900, 1000 and 1100 °C. The alloy was produced by vacuum-arc remelting technique. Results show that coarsening of the γ′ precipitates in this complex alloy containing high volume fractions of γ′ phase follows Lifshitz-Slyozov-Wagner (LSW) theory. Coarsening activation energy of the γ′ precipitates was evaluated to be about 253.5 kJ?mol-1 which shows that the growth phenomenon is controlled by volume diffusion of aluminum. With an innovative approach, diffusion coefficient of the solute element(s) and the interfacial energy between γ′ precipitates and γ (matrix) were estimated at 900, 1000 and 1100 °C. Accordingly, the interfacial energies at 900, 1000 and 1100 °C are 4.49±1.48, 2.08±0.69 and 0.98±0.32 mJ?m-2, respectively. Also the diffusivities of solute element(s) at these temperatures are 3.41±1.08, 30±9.5 and 145.15±45.85 (10-15 m2?s-1), respectively.

In the present research, the dissolution mechanism of a Zr rich structure during annealing of a Ni3Al base alloy containing Cr, Mo, Zr and B, was investigated. The annealing treatments were performed up to 50 h at 900, 1000 and 1100 °C. The alloy used in this investigation was produced by vacuum-arc remelting technique. The results show that at the beginning of the process, a mixed interface reaction and local equilibrium (long range diffusion) mechanism controls the dissolution process. After a short time, this mechanism changes and the dissolution mechanism of the Zr rich structure changes to only long range diffusion of Zr element. According to this mechanism, the activation energy of this process is estimated to be about 143.3 kJ?mol-1. Also the
phases that contribute to this structure and the transformations that occur at the final steps of solidification of this alloy were introduced. According to the results, at the final step of solidification, a peritectic type reaction occurs in the form of L+ γ´→ γ+Ni7Zr2 and γ-Ni7Zr2 segregates from the melt. Following this transformation, γ-Ni7Zr2 eutectic separates from the remaining Zr rich liquid. The solidification process will be terminated by a ternary eutectic reaction in the form of L+→ γ+Ni5Zr+Ni7Zr2.
