The microstructural evolution following compression and subsequent sub-solvus and super-solvus heat treatment was studied in the Ni-based superalloy, RR1000, typically used for rotor disc applications in aero-engines. For a low strain rate of 0.1s(-1) at close to solvus temperature, 1413K (1140 degrees C), the flow stress is constant. For larger strain rates of 1 and 10s(-1) at sub-solvus temperature, 1373K (1100 degrees C) dynamic re-crystallization (DRX) of gamma grains occurs during forging with accompanying stress decay. Incoherent primary gamma ' precipitates form mainly via meta-dynamic re-crystallization (MDRX) at 1s(-1) and are as intergranular. For 10s(-1), the coherently nucleated or existing precipitates present in the initial as-HIP condition become incoherent when the grain boundary sweeps past them during DRX and subsequent grain growth. The incoherent primary gamma ' precipitates are mainly intragranular. During sub-solvus heat treatment at 1373K (1100 degrees C), dissolution of the incoherent precipitates occurs through coarsening of the coherent intragranular population with only sporadic incoherent precipitates remaining. The prior induced deformation (strain and strain rate) influences the evolution of precipitate morphologies during cooling following heating to super-solvus temperature. Using numerical simulations, a quantitative calculation of the different precipitate morphologies was carried out during slow cooling from super-solvus temperature, 1443K to 1373K (1170 degrees C to 1100 degrees C).
