Abstract
During the creep deformation, damage mainly occurs in the tertiary creep stage. Thus, creep life is essentially controlled by the tertiary stage. To find out the impact of the dislocation microstructure on the creep rate in this stage, and in particular its thickness-dependence, creep tests of Ni-based single crystal superalloy are carried out at 1100 °C/130 MPa with sheet samples of varying thickness. The creep rate in tertiary creep clearly increases and rises faster in thinner sample sheets. The observed microstructures demonstrate that the γ/γ’ phase distribution shows no topological inversion. It is found that the variety of dislocations in γ’ rafts decrease with decreasing sample thickness. The γ’ rafts in thin samples are sheared by only two types of superdislocation involving individual screw superdislocations and double Lomer-Cottrell structures, while the γ’ rafts in thick samples are sheared by three types of superdislocations, again individual screw superdislocations and double Lomer-Cottrell structures, but also Kear-Wilsdorf structures. Also the density of disclocations varies significantly. A higher density of individual screw superdislocations and of mobile dislocation pairs, but lower density of locked non-planar structures promotes the creep of thinner samples.
期刊介绍:
Materials Characterization features original articles and state-of-the-art reviews on theoretical and practical aspects of the structure and behaviour of materials.
The Journal focuses on all characterization techniques, including all forms of microscopy (light, electron, acoustic, etc.,) and analysis (especially microanalysis and surface analytical techniques). Developments in both this wide range of techniques and their application to the quantification of the microstructure of materials are essential facets of the Journal.
The Journal provides the Materials Scientist/Engineer with up-to-date information on many types of materials with an underlying theme of explaining the behavior of materials using novel approaches. Materials covered by the journal include:
Metals & Alloys
Ceramics
Nanomaterials
Biomedical materials
Optical materials
Composites
Natural Materials.
