Laves Phase in Inconel 718 1

[huffmet]

I am trying to obtain some photo standards of Laves phase in Inconel 718. Better yet, I would like to create laves phase to take photos of. How would I go about doing this? Thanks for all of your help.

Here are a couple of good starting points.
We have used 718 since it’s inception and I’ve seen Laves Phase only once where it was associated with a failure associate with a small seal weld. It was hard as hell to get it to reveal itself.

In my opinion some good pictures.
