摘要	The high-W superalloy K416B is often used in aero-engine turbine blades. These have a varied casting thickness, and this may cause significant differences in the macrostructure, microstructure and mechanical properties of the blade. In this study, five castings of different thicknesses were produced by a specimen module which shared the same "cast-mold-environment" in order to simulate the varied thicknesses across a turbine blade. The macro and microstructure of specimens with different cast thicknesses were analyzed by optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), electron probe microanalyzer (EPMA) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Microhardness and 975 degrees C/235 MPa rupture tests were performed to investigate the differences in mechanical properties. The results indicated that a larger cast thickness caused a lower solidification rate and increased element microsegregation. The relationship between the cast thickness H and secondary dendrite arm spacing lambda(2) was lambda(2) = 11.39H(0.55). The average area of eutectic gamma' and MC carbide phases was proportional to cast thickness. In addition, abnormal fine grains were observed at the bottom of the 40 mm specimen and the top of the 20 mm specimen. Large size alpha-W phases could be observed in these regions and are suggested to be the cause of the grain refinement. The hardness test results showed that the hardness of the specimen decreased as the cast thickness increased. The 975 degrees C/235 MPa rupture test results showed that the rupture property decreased in the 40 mm specimen, but that there was no significant alteration in the 3-20 mm specimens. These results provide a guidance for turbine blades manufacturing made from this high W cast polycrystalline superalloy.
