摘 要：Fine cellular subgrain structure was formed in the Selective Laser Melting（SLM） manu factured IN718 alloy via optimizing the processing parameters.During the subsequent homogenization heat treatment process,the Laves phase dispersed at the subgrain boundaries can be eliminated while the cellular subgrain structure is reserved in the printed samples after holding at 1080℃ for 50 min.With the prolongation of the holding time,the subgrain boundaries undergo low angle rotation via the motion ofdislocation,which leads to the annihilation of the cellular subgrain structure.Moreover,during the subsequent double aging heat treatment process,the reserved cellular subgrain structure in the homogenized samples promotes the precipitation of γ" second phase nanoparticles,and these precipitated γ" phase nanoparticles prefer to distribute at subgrain boundaries.It was found that these unique subgrain boundaries with γ" phase precipitates can hinder but not fully terminate the motion of dislocation during the plastic deformation process,which contributes to increasing the strength as well as holding the stable plastic flow.Hence,the strength and ductility of final prepared IN718 alloy with cellular subgrain microstructure were improved simultaneously compared to the prepared alloy without cellular subgrain structure,which even exceed the mechanical properties standards（AMS 5662） of wrought IN718 alloy.These results in our work suggest that controlling the subgrain structure is a promising effective strategy to improve the mechanical properties of SLM manu factured nickel-based superalloy.
