Abstract
An atom probe field-ion microscopy study has been performed on model Fe-Ni-Al-Mo superalloys. The molybdenum and iron were found to partition preferentially to the α matrix and nickel and aluminum partition to the β' precipitates. The precipitates contained approximately 11% Fe. No evidence was found for molybdenum segregation to the precipitate-matrix interface.
