Abstract

Graphene nanosheet (GNS)-reinforced nickel-based superalloy FGH95 (GNSs/FGH95) matrix composites are prepared via the powder metallurgy approach. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscope and static tensile tests are used to investigate the microstructure and mechanical properties of GNS-reinforced nickel-based superalloy FGH95. Mechanical properties and failure behavior at room temperature and high temperature are studied. Static tensile tests at room temperature and high temperature confirm that the strength and plasticity of GNS-reinforced FGH95 have been improved, compared to the unreinforced superalloy. The results show that with the increase of temperature, the failure behavior of GNSs/FGH95 composite changes from the interface debonding of the GNSs/matrix to the failure of the FGH95 matrix. This work suggests that GNSs/FGH95 composite has great potential to be a structural material in aero-engine fields.
