- Insufficient time-dependent properties at elevated temperatures, particularly creep resistance and ductility, are currently crucial factors impeding the use of additively manufactured Hastelloy X (HX). To address this limitation, a micro-nano olive-shaped carbide network was purposely introduced into HX via laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) and following optimized heat treatment. The inherent chemical heterogeneity combined with the sufficient stored energy of boundaries, induced by the ultrafast cooling rate of the L-PBF process, creates favorable conditions for the formation of micro-nano precipitate networks. Compared to its untreated counterpart, the optimized HX exhibited considerably improved creep resistance, with an 85% increase in creep life and a 122% improvement in fracture ductility. Furthermore, through multiscale characterization techniques and theoretical calculations, the preferential precipitation behavior of the micro-nano carbide networks was systematically investigated from both kinetic and thermodynamic perspectives. The superior creep resistance of the L-PBF HX, decorated with carbide networks, stems from the synergistic effects of the high cavity surface energy, effective pinning for grain boundary sliding, and reduced plasticity-assisted diffusion rate, which markedly inhibit the nucleation and growth of microvoids during high-temperature deformations. This work provides a comprehensive understanding of the strengthening mechanisms associated with non-equilibrium solidification-facilitated carbide networks, providing new insights into the targeted design and optimization of L-PBF alloys.
