Data set for diffusion coefficients and relative creep rate ratios of 26 dilute Ni-X alloy systems from first-principles calculations

Abstract The development of future generations of Ni-base superalloys will depend on a systematic understanding of how each alloying element affects the fundamental properties of Ni-base superalloys, particularly with respect to their creep behavior. First, this article presents the temperature-dependent data of all factors entering into dilute impurity diffusion for 26 Ni-X alloy systems, including atomic jump frequencies, thermodynamic parameters, and diffusivity plots. Second, this article presents the data used to calculate the relative creep rate ratios showing the effect of each of the 26 alloying elements, X, on the dilute Ni-X alloy. The dataset refers to “A comprehensive first-principles study of solute elements in dilute Ni alloys: Diffusion coefficients and their implications to tailor creep rate” by Hargather et al. [1] .
