Rene 142, a commercial, columnar grained, gas turbine airfoil Ni-based superalloy, has been fabricated from a pre-alloyed, atomized powder by additive manufacturing using electron beam melting. Monolithic components having [0 0 1] oriented, columnar grain structures exhibited a creep-optimized 59% volume fraction of cuboidal, coherent, γ′-phase precipitates averaging 275 nm on the side, and with γ/γ′ channel widths ranging from 25 to 75 nm. Transmission electron microscopy, utilizing bright and dark field imaging of optimally oriented γ/γ′ interfaces showed prominent misfit coherency strains as δ-fringe patterns. Corresponding hardness measurements also indicated the possibility of creep strength comparable with the commercial alloy. The notable feature of this study was the monolithic development of desirable superalloy properties without conventional, multi-step heat treatments. Further details can be get from

René 142 is a high strength nickel-base superalloy, however its mechanical properties were not well documented. Even though their structural variability may also give the bit different responses. In terms of their structural similarity to X718 alloys, you may check the similar X718 with close compositions and microstructures for a good approximation.
For example, check this one:

TEM could be used to measure the microstructural stability and mechanical properties of RENE 142.
Rend N6 is compatible with all types of coatings and shows no property degradation from SRZ. In addition, Rene N6 does not form the very detrimental cellular colonies in the dendrite cores, which can significantly reduce creep rupture properties. RenC N6 is approximately 30°C stronger than the second generation single crystal, Rend N5. Rene N6 represents the best combination of strength and stability in third generation single crystal superalloys.
Rene 142 is a high strength, nickel base Directionally Solidified (DS) turbine alloy, which is now operational in commercial and military jet engines. Rene l42 is directionally solidified with columnar grain boundaries; this process is less expensive than the directionally solidified single crystal (no grain boundaries) process, due to easier mold making, faster casting, less expensive inspection and higher yields. This is a monolithic superalloy components having [0 0 1] oriented, columnar grain structures can exhibit a creep coherent, γ′-phase precipitates averaging 275 nm on the side, and with γ/γ′ channel. Transmission electron microscopy, utilizing bright and dark field imaging of optimally oriented γ/γ′ interfaces showed prominent misfit coherency strains as δ-fringe patterns.
Hardness measurements also indicate the possibility of creep strength comparable with the commercial alloy.
