Aside from the possible turbine use, the materials could be used in IC Engine components, like pistons and combustion chambers or sleeves.
The engines could be run at a much higher temperature for even more fuel efficiency and less pollutants.....................

The critical parameter is strength at operating temperature. This is an alloy that would be very difficult to process using conventional methods but is very well suited for in situ fusion in very thin layers used for 3D printing
