A method for preparing a nano-phase strengthened nickel-based superalloy using micron-scale ceramic particles is provided. In the method, a nickel-based superalloy is used as a matrix, and one or more of TiC, TiB, WC and AlOare used as a strengthening phase. A ceramic particle raw material used as the strengthening phase has a particle size of 1-5 μm and is added in an amount of 1-5 wt. %. A nickel-based superalloy composite powder having homogeneously distributed nano-scale ceramic is prepared by mechanical milling. A nano-scale ceramic phase strengthened nickel-based superalloy is prepared by 3D printing technology, which has a homogeneously distributed nano-scale ceramic phase and excellent mechanical properties.

A preparation method for an iron-based alloy powder EBSD test sample includes the following steps: surface electrolytic activation of an iron-based powder; ultrasonically cleaning the powder, and drying the powder to obtain a surface activated powder; adding the surface activated powder to a chemical embedding solution for ultrasonic dispersion; after the ultrasonic dispersion, performing a plating process; then heating to 80-92° C. for chemical reaction to prepare an iron-based alloy bulk which coated with nickel. The plating process is as follows: still standing, stirring, and repeating the still standing is taken as a cycle, and at least one cycle is performed to complete the plating process. Then grinding and electropolishing are done to the obtained iron-based alloy bulk coated with nickel to obtain the iron-based alloy powder EBSD test sample.

The present disclosure relates to the field of additive manufacturing and superalloys, particularly to a method for eliminating cracks in René 104 nickel-based superalloy prepared by laser additive manufacturing. For solving the problem that cracks are easily generated during laser additive manufacturing of René 104 nickel-based superalloy with high content of Al and Ti (Al+Ti>5 wt. %), generation of large-size cracks inside a fabricated part is suppressed by means of designing laser forming parameters and a partition scanning strategy; then stress relief annealing is performed to completely eliminate residual stress inside the fabricated part; and a spark plasma sintering process is performed to eliminate cracks inside the fabricated part and suppress the growth of grains during the sintering process.
