Casting and processing considerations

Melting practice has a strong influence on quality: reactive elements such as aluminium and titanium in superalloys normally require vacuum melting and pouring, while corrosion-resistant grades are commonly air melted with careful control of carbon and silicon. Corrosion-resistant grades are solution annealed; weld repair and its heat treatment must follow the material specification.
