31 Conclusions 1. Ni-base SC superalloys have evolved to 5th generation(1100 ) and evolving further to the 6th generation(1150 ) alloys. 2. Coating systems are also being improved to match such high temperature use, not only the top coat but also the metallic bond coat materials, EQ coating. 3. Temperature capability of cast-and-wrought superalloys have been improved by based on U720Li, supporting the improved turbine blade technologies. 4. It will take some more time for possible alternative materials to be actually applied, especially for blade and disc materials. 5. Ni-base superalloys will be used for many more years, taking key roles for CO2 reduction in various power engineering.
