Abstract High-performance nickel-based superalloys are highly desired in the aerospace industry. A drawback of vacuum induction melting for processing nickel-based superalloys is that oxide refractories contaminate the molten alloy through crucible-melt interaction. Therefore, crucibles used for producing nickel-based superalloys should be carefully selected to avoid melt contamination. In this study, the interfacial reaction between a molten nickel-based superalloy (K417G) and various oxide refractories, including Al2O3, CaO, MgO, ZrO2 + 12%Y2O3 (mass fraction) (Y-PSZ), ZrO2 + 20%CaO (CSZ), and Y2O3, formed by cold isostatic pressing was investigated at 1600oC by XRD, SEM, and EDS. The effects of the oxide crucibles on the impurity contents of K417G were also evaluated. The results show that physical erosion is the primary mechanism of the interaction between Al2O3 crucibles and alloy melt. The readily detached Al2O3 particles formed inclusions in the alloy. The Ca3Al2O6 liquid phase generated at the melt-crucible interface promoted wettability between the alloy and CaO crucible, resulting in a high adhesion at the interface. The reaction of the MgO crucible with Al in the alloy resulted in the formation of MgAl2O4 at the melt-crucible interface, which subsequently entered the alloy to form inclusions. Al2O3 was generated at the Y-PSZ-crucible-alloy interface. However, there was no corrosion of Al2O3 in the Y-PSZ crucible, indicating the crucible exhibits excellent corrosion resistance to Al2O3 slags. The interaction between the CSZ crucible and alloy melt generated a CaAl2O4 liquid phase, making the crucible unstable to dissolve into the alloy. An Al2Y4O9 reaction layer is mainly formed at the Y2O3-crucible-alloy interface. The dissolution of Y2O3 into the alloy melt was high compared to that of other oxide refractories. The melt-crucible interaction also significantly affected the oxygen content of K417G. The oxygen concentration of the alloy fused by CaO, Y2O3, and Y-PSZ crucibles did not increase, whereas that of the alloy melted in CSZ, MgO, and Al2O3 crucibles increased from 0.0007% to 0.0011%, 0.0034%, and 0.0135%, respectively.
