The specimens of the second generation single crystal superalloy DD6 with different Hf contents were prepared in the directionally solidified furnace with a high temperature gradient.The long term aging of the specimens after full heat treatment was performed at 1 040 ℃ for 800 h.The effect of Hf on the microstructure and stress rupture properties under 980 ℃/250 MPa of the alloy after long term aging was investigated.The results show that the γ' coarsening and rafting and no topologically close packed phase (TCP) are observed in the microstructures of DD6 alloy with different Hf contents after aged at 1 040 ℃ for 800 h.It indicates that DD6 alloy with different Hf contents all possesses good microstructure stability.With increasing Hf content the rupture life after long term aging turns shorter and the elongation represents the increasing first and decreasing afterwards.The fracture mechanism of the alloy with different Hf contents at 980 ℃/250 MPa all shows dimple model.The influence of the microstructures on the stress rupture properties of the alloy is also discussed.
