Precipitation hardening regulated with heat treatments is a critical technique for tuning the mechanical properties of Ni-based superalloys fabricated with additive manufacturing, where mechanical deformation is no longer viable for microstructural refinement. As one of the key precipitates, carbides prevail in the additively manufactured alloys, whose precipitation kinetics remain largely vague. This work studies the influence of heat treatments on the evolution of MC- and M23C6-type carbides within a Haynes (R) 282 superalloy prepared by wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM). SEM-EDS analysis was performed to identify the evolution pathways of the carbides, and TEM and XRD characterizations were carried out to track the crystallographic features. The MCtype carbides are originally present in the as-printed alloy, which distribute uniformly across the whole material and remain largely unchanged in size during the heat treatments. By contrast, the incipiently non-existent M23C6-type carbides precipitate during an aging treatment at 1010 degrees C, which majorly extend along the grain boundaries as kinetically feasible sites. Further experimental and computational analysis confirms the enhancing effect of the M23C6-type carbides on the Vickers hardness. For the first time, this work revealed the evolution pathways of carbides within a Haynes (R) 282 superalloy prepared by WAAM, providing critical information for tunning the microstructure and mechanical properties. The carbide evolution kinetics established in this work can be potentially extended to other alloys prepared with WAAM, providing critical information to prevent mechanical failures associated with carbide coarsening.
