Large bigots to be made by Clean Metal Nucleated Casting. (Forming/Processing).

Advanced Materials & Processes, January, 2002

A contract to develop a new technology to enable the production of very large nickel-based superalloy ingots required for the next generation of high efficiency land-based turbines for power generation, has been awarded by the Advanced Technology Program of the National Institute of Standards and Technology to Allvac, an Allegheny Technologies Incorporated company, and General Electric Company, Corporate Research and Development.

The research effort will be directed toward the development of Clean Metal Nucleated Casting (CMNC), a processing technology for the efficient casting of large, fine-grained, segregation-free, superalloy ingots. "Current casting technology for nickel-base superalloys, which was developed primarily for jet engine materials, has been...
