Abstract K465 superalloy, as a material for production of turbine nozzle, shows high mechanical properties as well as microstructure stability in critical and severe service conditions. The alloy gains its appropriate microstructure and strength through solid solution strengthening mechanism. Heat treatment parameters such as: time and temperature of homogenization, partial solution and aging temperatures, and cooling rate from solid solution affect the microstructure of the alloy. Among these parameters cooling rate from solid solution is the most effective. Therefore, in this study the effect of cooling rate on microstructure and mechanical properties (tensile and stress properties) were investigated. For this purpose, three different cooling rates were applied on the cast K465 specimens after solution treatment at 1210�� for 4 h. Microstructures of the specimens then were studied using optical and electron microscopy. Also, tensile tests were performed at room temperature and stress rupture tests were performed under the condition of 975�� and 230 MPa. It was found out that with increasing cooling rate the size of the ��' precipitates decreases and the mechanical properties of specimens increases. Also, it was shown that the shape and volume fraction of primary ��' particles are largely influenced by the cooling rate following solution treatment at 1210�� for 4 h.
