Abstract  The decomposition of spherical γ' phase precipitated at high temperature during continuous cooling of U720LI Ni-based alloy has been studied. Fast cooling from supersaturated γ solid solution of the alloy could not inhibit fine γ'precipitates, and the size of the γ' precipitates is about 40-60 nm.When slow cooling to 650℃ and then fast cooling to the room temperature, two kinds of γ' precipitates were found. One was precipitated at high temperature with the size about 200 nm and another was precipitated at low temperature with the size of 50-65 nm in average. Moreover, the big γ' precipitates which precipitated at high temperature were found to be decomposed to form finer γ' precipitates. Because the high temperature γ'\γ interface offers necessary condition for non-classical nucleation theory, any segregation area of γ' formation elements at the high temperature γ'/γ interface can act as pre-existed γ'nuclei and thus promote the precipitation of finer γ' from the saturated γ matrix. Through the short-distance diffusion of the γ' formation elements from the high temperature γ' to pre-existed γ' nuclei, the pre-existed γ' nuclei can grow to be 10-20 nm in size. At the same time, the high temperature γ' precipitates became instable due to loss of γ' formation elements and began to be decomposed as a result. The subsequent ageing promotes the decomposition of the big high temperature γ'.
