Various cooling scenarios(water,oil,air and furnace)were employed to study the impacts of the solu-tion cooling rate(SCR)on the microstructure and creep behavior of a novel single-crystal(SX)superalloy.The results showed that the cubic degree and size of the γ'phases were inversely proportional to the SCR.The creep life first increased and then dropped dramatically with a reduction in the SCR.The creep life of the sample cooled with air cooling(AC)was the highest,up to 144.90 h at 800℃/750 MPa and 160.15 h at 1100℃/137 MPa.During creep at 800℃/750 MPa,the improved creep life of the AC sam-ple was mainly attributed to the fine cubic γ'phases,which decreased the rate of γ'-phase coarsening and favoured plastic deformation by promoting the active movement of dislocations.The AC helped the γ'phases become rich in Al.Ti and Ta while depleted in Co and Cr,which enhanced its stacking fault energy,thus promoting the formation of dislocation locks.Meanwhile,the largest negative lattice misfit caused by AC induced denser γ/γ'interface dislocation networks at 1100℃/137 Mpa,which efficiently reduced the minimum creep rate.The calculated average dislocation spacing results indicated that the smallest density of excess dislocations corresponded to the AC sample,proving its greatest creep resis-tance.Interestingly,the size of the secondary γ'phases first decreased and then increased sharply with decreasing SCR during creep at 1100℃/137 Mpa,when fine secondary γ'phases had a positive role in the blockage of dislocation movement in the matrix.Eventually,the comprehensive SCR effect was ex-plored to provide more guidance in the design of Re-free SX superalloys.
