Grain refinement is the essential concern in producing Superalloy 718 components. Thermomechanical process as a means of producing fine grain structure has attracted significant attention. However, hot forging with deviations on forging temperature results in significant changes in the microstructure. High volume fractions of δ phase thus produced reduce the amount of niobium available for γ″ formation...
