Elevated temperature tensile and creep-rupture tests were performed on INCONEL MA754 in longitudinal and transverse orientations
at temperatures from 700°C to 1000°C. The transerve orientation was weaker and less ductile than the longitudinal orientation
due to a higher grain boundary density perpendicular to the applied stress axis. This effect was especially pronounced in
creep tests at 900°C and 1000°C. Threshold creep behavior was observed for the longitudinal orientation, with stress exponents
ranging from 29 to 40. Stress exponents in the long transverse orientation ranged from 24 at 800°C to 5 at 1000°C, indicating
a temperature-varying deformation mechanism. Creep ductility in the transverse orientation was extremely low, less than 1
pct for higher temperature, lower stress conditions. Failure in all transverse specimens was controlled by grain boundary
separation. Even in the relatively weak transverse direction, the strength of MA754 compares favorably with other alloys being
considered for advanced power plant applications. 相似文献

Two models of constrained cavity growth are developed to describe the long-term longitudinal creep behavior of nickel based
oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) alloys. For both models the rupture time is taken as the time for a transverse grain boundary
to cavitate fully. A diffusive cavity growth law is assumed to govern cavitation. The applicability of the respective models
is determined by the particular grain morphology achieved by thermal-mechanical processing. The first model assumes that longitudinal
grain boundaries are unable to slide; hence displacements due to cavitation must be matched by displacements due to dislocation
creep in adjoining grains. This model predicts a low stress exponent at the transition from single crystal to cavitation creep
behavior, and higher stress exponents at stresses below this transition. Good agreement is found between the model predictions
and creep data for MA 754 at 1000 and 1093 °C. A second model considers a grain morphology wherein longitudinal grain boundaries
are able to slide by means of deformation of pockets of fine grains. Cavitation of transverse grain boundaries is thus controlled
by grain boundary sliding. This model predicts a stress exponent of 1 at low stresses, and serves as an upper bound for the
creep rate when a duplex grain morphology is present. Model predictions are in good agreement with creep data for a heat of
MA 754 with a duplex grain morphology.

The longitudinal creep behavior of two heats of coarse grained INCONEL* MA 754 have been examined at temperatures of 1000
°C and above. Both heats exhibit a pronounced transition in deformation behavior. At high stresses, dislocation creep is observed
and high stress exponents (n ∼40) are measured. Fracture in this regime is transgranular with high creep ductilities. At lower stresses, the stress exponents
are low and fracture is intergranular. In this regime, the stress exponent depends strongly on the grain morphology. Heat
1, with a uniform fiber grain morphology, exhibits significantly higher stress exponents than Heat 2, which has a duplex grain
morphology consisting of coarse grains along with pockets of fine, equiaxed grains. Microstructural examination of specimens
deformed at the lower stresses provides evidence that cavitation of the transverse grain boundaries occurs by means of diffusive
cavity growth. In the heat with the uniform fiber morphology, cavity growth is constrained by creep of adjacent grains. Cavity
growth for the heat with the duplex grain morphology is apparently limited by the sliding of pockets of fine grains. The implications
of these results for optimizing creep resistance of MA 754 are discussed.

The creep and stress rupture behavior of the mechanically alloyed oxide dispersion strengthened nickel-base alloy MA 754 was
studied at 760, 982 and 1093 °C. Using material with a fine, highly elongated grain structure, tensile specimens oriented
parallel and perpendicular to the longitudinal grain direction were tested at various stresses in air under constant load.
It was found that the apparent stress dependence was large, with power law exponents ranging from 19 to 33 over the temperature
range studied. The creep activation energy, after correction for the temperature dependence of the elastic modulus, was close
to but slightly larger than the activation energy for self diffusion. Rupture was intergranular and the rupture ductility
as measured by percentage elongation was generally low, with values ranging from 0.5 to 16 pct. The creep properties are rationalized
by describing the creep rates in terms of an effective stress which is the applied stress minus a resisting stress consistent
with the alloy microstructure. Values of the resisting stress obtained through a curve fitting procedure are found to be close
to the values of the particle by-pass stress for this ODS alloy, as calculated from the measured oxide particle distribution.

Elevated temperature tensile and creep-rupture tests were performed on INCONEL alloy MA754 in an as-rolled, fine-grained condition.
Tensile tests were performed at 25 °C, 800 °C, 900 °C, and 1000 °C; creep-rupture tests were performed at 800 °C, 900 °C,
and 1000 °C. the elevated temperature strength in the fine-grained condition was approximately 25 pct of that the coarse-grained,
annealed condition. While good ductility was observed in tensile tests at a nominal strain rate of 1 × 10−3s−1, ductility in creep-rupture tests was very low, with failure elongations less than 5 pct and no reduction in area. Creep
deformation appeared to occur primarily by cavity formation and growth. 相似文献

Mechanical alloying has been applied to produce a dispersion-strengthened superalloy IN-738 containing 1.5 wt pct Y2O3. Annealing of extrusion bars above the recrystallization temperature of 1160°C can be described by three stages of recrystallization:finegrain;
isotropic coarse-grain; and fibrous coarse grain growth. A maximum grain length of 550 μm and a maximum grain aspect ratio
of 4.8 have been obtained for an alloy, which had been extruded at 1100°C and annealed at 1280°C and 1270°C for 3 h, respectively.
The three stages of grain growth are explained in terms of recovery, differences in nucleation rate and dispersoid concentration
in the two normal directions and release in stored cold work. Secondary recrystallization can be excluded as a mechanism for
fibrous grain coarsening. Dispersion-strengthened IN-738, heat treated to a coarse elongated grain structure, has both high
intermediate temperature strength and high elevated temperature strength. The creep strength at 1000°C exceeds that of cast
or directionally solidified IN-738 after 300 h service life. The failure mechanism at elevated temperature is intergranular
fracture along transverse grain boundaries, nucleated by cavities that form during grain boundary sliding. Nucleation of voids
is retarded in the creep specimens due to diffusional accommodation of grain boundary sliding. A depletion of surface zones
of chromium, aluminum and titanium contributes to initiation of creep failure at 1000°C. 相似文献

The high cycle fatigue (HCF) behavior of the oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) MA 754 alloy has been determined as a function
of specimen orientation. The fatigue life showed anisotropic behavior with the longest and shortest lives in the longitudinal
and short transverse directions, respectively. Surface porosity, due to oxidation, was found to affect fatigue life in the
long transverse orientation more than in the longitudinal orientation. The fatigue crack growth behavior in MA 754 exhibited
a directional dependence. In general, the crack growth rates in the longitudinal direction were lower than those in the long
transverse direction. The ΔK
th
was ∼11 MN ·-3/2 and 9 MN · m-3/2 for the longitudinal and the long transverse orientation, respectively. This behavior was explained on the basis of the unusual
grain structure and the texture exhibited by this alloy as well as different crack closure effects. It was found that a consideration
based on the crack growth rates results, obtained from fracture mechanics specimens, could not explain the anisotropic behavior
of the HCF properties of MA 754. However, the anisotropic HCF properties could be rationalized on the basis of the differences
in the modes of crack initiation. 相似文献

Directionally solidified (DS) and oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) superalloys like CM 247 LC and MA 760 exhibit elongated
macrograins. In uniaxial creep tests, the creep strength of such alloys in the direction of the longitudinal grains is higher
than that of an equiaxed grain structure, because significantly less grain boundary (GB) segments are perpendicular to the
axis of the applied stress. The present study investigates how creep in the longitudinal direction of these alloys is influenced
(1) by deviations of individual grain orientations from the optimum growth direction during casting (CM 247 LC) and (2) by
the spatial distribution of the small transverse GB segments (MA 760) for a given grain aspect ratio. In the case of creep
ductile CM 247 LC, it was shown that if there is a large fraction of grains that are oriented for single slip, this results
in higher creep rates and lower rupture times than if there is only a small fraction of such grains. The study of the influence
of grain morphology on creep damage accumulation in the creep-brittle and notch-sensitive ODS alloy MA 760 showed that large
scatter in creep rupture lives is related to (1) the stochastic nature of creep damage accumulation on transverse GB segments
and (2) the spatial distribution of transverse GB segments. It is the combination of these two factors that results in increased
scatter in rupture lives as compared to equiaxed fine grain structures.

The crack growth behavior of several high temperature nickel-base alloys, under cyclic and static loading, is studied and
reviewed. In the oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) MA 6000 and MA 754 alloys, the high temperature crack propagation exhibited
orientation dependence under cyclic as well as under static loading. The creep crack growth (CCG) behavior of cast nickel-base
IN-738 and IN-939* superalloys at 850 °C could be characterized by the stress intensity factor,K
1. In the case of the alloy IN-901 at 500 °C and 600 °C,K
1 was found to be the relevant parameter to characterize the creep crack growth behavior. The energy rate line integral,C*, may be the appropriate loading parameter to describe the creep crack growth behavior of the nickel-iron base IN-800H alloy
at 800 °C. The creep crack growth data of 1 Cr-Mo-V steel, with bainitic microstructure, at 550 °C could be correlated better
by C * than byK

The steady-state creep deformation behavior of a cast two phase gamma TiAl alloy having the composition Ti48Al1Nb (at.%) has been studied. Tension creep tests using the stress increment technique (θθ2θ3) were conducted over the temperature range of 704–850°C at constant initial applied stress level of 103.4–241.3 MPa. The activation energy for creep over the temperature and stress regime of this study varied 317.5 kJ/mol (137.8 MPa) up to 341.0 kJ/mol (206.8 MPa) with an average value of 326.4 kJ/mol. This is well within the range of values previously measured for gamma TiAl alloys where creep controlled by volume diffusion has been suggested as rate controlling. The stress exponents meaured were 5.0 at 704°C, 4.9 at 750°C, 4.7 at 800°C and 4.46 at 850°C. Using the activation energy of 326.4 kJ/mol, the temperature compensated steady-state creep rate was plotted against long stress with all temperatures collapsing onto a single line having a slope equal to 4.95. Using conventional creep analysis, this value of the stress exponent can be taken as suggestive of dislocation climb controlled power law creep as the operative deformation mechanism within the stress and temperature regime of the present study. The boundary separating the lamellar grains in two phase gamma TiAl alloys having the duplex microstructure may be a very important aspect of this microstructure with respect to creep deformation resistance. The interlocking γ/α2 laths making up these boundaries are expected to be very resistant to grain boundary sliding which may contribute to creep deformation in the dislocation creep regime. Finally, some previous observations along with a comparison of the creep behavior of the Ti48Al1Nb alloy to that of a Tiz.sbnd;50.3Al binary have been discussed in terms of the pre-exponential constant A in the power law creep equation. TiAl alloys having similar stress and temperature dependencies but differing steady-state strain rates over comparable stress-temperature regimes may be rationalized on the basis of differing power law creep constants which may reflect differences in stacking fault energies. 相似文献

Cyclic creep deceleration relative to static creep was observed in oxide dispersion strengthened alloy Inconel MA 754 at 760 °C and cyclic stresses of 221 MPa-41 MPa, 231 MPa-41 MPa, and 241 MPa-41 MPa. Tests were run over the range of frequency from 0.05 cycles per hour to six cycles per hour. The maximum cyclic deceleration, which was manifested as a reduced net creep rate and increased rupture life, was observed at the highest cyclic frequency. Considerable anelastic strain, having a magnitude of εa/εe~ 1/3, is stored in MA 754 at 760 °C under these creep loads, and this strain may be recovered in the off-load half cycle of a cyclic creep test. During the higher frequency tests, the effect of an incomplete storage of anelastic strain on the accompanying nonrecoverable creep rate provides a mechanism for the frequency dependent cyclic creep deceleration. The proposed mechanism is in agreement with mixed-mode test results and with TEM examination of interrupted-test specimens. 相似文献

The nucleation and growth of cavities was examined in steel bicrystals (Fe-3%-Si, X 8 CrNiNb 16 13) and in the ODS superalloy Inconel MA 754 (Inconel MA 754 (78% Ni; 20% Cr; 0.5% Ti; 0.3% Al; 0.6% Y2O3). Cavity density distributions were measured on metallographic sections and on cleaved grain boundaries as a function of time, strain, temperature and stress. Nucleation and growth laws were obtained by evaluating the distributions with appropriate models. For the fcc and bcc bicrystals, it was found that cavities nucleated continuously at sulfide and carbide particles during creep. They grew by grain boundary diffusion. But the growth rate was delayed with increasing creep strain due to cavities which nucleated in the surroundings of existing cavities. For the ODS alloy, however, many round cavities preexisted on quasi-boundaries consisting of the aggregate of coarse oxide and carbide particles. They grew initially by diffusion, but with increasing creep time (cavity size), the growth mechanism switched from growth controlled by grain boundary diffusion to growth controlled by power law creep. Implications for life predictions are discussed. 相似文献

1144 to 1477 K elevated temperature tensile, stress rupture, and creep tests and residual room temperature tensile tests following
creep exposures were conducted on the iron-base oxide dispersion strengthened alloy MA 956, nominally Fe-20Cr-4.5Al-0.5Ti-0.5Y203. While the majority of the testing was in the longitudinal bar direction, a few tests in the long transverse bar direction
were also conducted. Under slow strain rate conditions in the longitudinal direction, MA 956 deforms via a crack nucleation
and growth mechanism eventually leading to sudden fracture. The longitudinal direction is stronger than the long transverse
direction. Small amounts (∼0.1 pct) of prior creep strain do not degrade subsequent room temperature tensile properties. 相似文献

The influence of carbon and chromium on the creep and intergranular (IG) cracking behavior of controlled-purity Ni-xCr-9Fe-yC alloys in 360 °C argon was investigated using constant extension rate tension (CERT) and constant load tension (CLT) testing.
The CERT test results at 360 °C show that the degree of IG cracking increases with decreasing bulk chromium or carbon content.
The CLT test results at 360 °C and 430 °C reveal that, as the amounts of chromium and carbon in solution decrease, the steady-state
creep rate increases. The occurrence of severe IG cracking correlates with a high steady-state creep rate, suggesting that
creep plays a role in the IG cracking behavior in argon at 360 °C. The failure mode of IG cracking and the deformation mode
of creep are coupled through the formation of grain boundary voids that interlink to form grain boundary cavities, resulting
in eventual failure by IG cavitation and ductile overload of the remaining ligaments. Grain boundary sliding may be enhancing
grain boundary cavitation by redistributing the stress from inclined to more perpendicular boundaries and concentrating stress
at discontinuities for the boundaries oriented 45 deg with respect to the tensile axis. Additions of carbon or chromium, which
reduce the creep rate over all stress levels, also reduce the amount of IG fracture in CERT experiments. A damage accumulation
model was formulated and applied to CERT tests to determine whether creep damage during a CERT test controls failure. Results
show that, while creep plays a significant role in CERT experiments, failure is likely controlled by ductile overload caused
by reduction in area resulting from grain boundary void formation and interlinkage.

The creep and stress rupture behavior of a mechanically alloyed oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) and γ′ precipitation strengthened
nickel-base alloy (alloy MA 6000E) was studied at intermediate and elevated temperatures. At 760 °C, MA 6000E exhibits the
high creep strength characteristic of nickel-base superalloys and at 1093 °C the creep strength is superior to other ODS nickel-base
alloys. The stress dependence of the creep rate is very sharp at both test temperatures and the apparent creep activation
energy measured around 760 °C is high, much larger in magnitude than the self-diffusion energy. Stress rupture in this large
grain size material is transgranular and crystallographic cracking is observed. The rupture ductility is dependent on creep
strain rate, but usually is low. These and accompanying microstructural results are discussed with respect to other ODS alloys
and superalloys and the creep behavior is rationalized by invoking a recently-developed resisting stress model of creep in
materials strengthened by second phase particles. The analysis indicates that at the intermediate temperature the creep strength
is controlled by the high volume fraction of γ′ precipitates and the contribution to the creep strength from the oxide dispersion
is small. At the elevated temperature, the creep strength is derived mainly from the inert oxide dispersoids.

Creep tests have been correlated with microstructural changes which occurred during creep of Inconel 617 at 1000 °C, 24.5
MPa. The following results were obtained: 1) Fine intragranular carbides which are precipitated during creep are effective
in lowering the creep rate during the early stages of the creep regime (within 300 h). 2) Grain boundary carbides migrate
from grain boundaries that are under compressive stress to grain boundaries that are under tensile stress. This is explained
in terms of 1 the dissolution of relatively unstable carbides on the compressive boundaries, 2 the diffusion of the solute
atoms to the tensile boundaries and 3 the reprecipitation of the carbides at the tensile boundaries. The rate of grain boundary
carbide migration depends on grain size. 3) M23C6 type carbides, having high chromium content, and M6C type carbides, having high molybdenum content, co-exist on the grain boundaries. M23C6 type carbides, however, are quantitatively predominant. Furthermore, M6C occurs less frequently on the tensile boundaries than on the stress free grain boundaries. This is attributed to the difference
of the diffusion coefficients of chromium and molybdenum. 4) The grain boundaries on which the carbides have dissolved start
to migrate in the steady state creep region. The creep rate gradually increases with the occurrence of grain boundary migration.
5) The steady state creep rate depends not so much on the morphological changes of carbides as on the grain size of the matrix. 相似文献

Intergranular cracking and void nucleation occur over extended periods of time in alloy 617 when subjected to stress at high temperatures. Damage occurs inhomogeneously with some boundaries suffering failure, while others are seemingly immune to creep. Crack propagation associated with grain size, and grain boundary character was investigated to determine which types of grain boundaries are susceptible to damage and which are more resistant. Electron backscatter diffraction and a stereological approach to obtain the five-parameter grain boundary distribution were used to measure the proportions of each type of boundary in the initial and damaged structures. The samples were crept at 1273.15 K (1000 °C) at 25 MPa until fracture. It was found that in addition to low-angle and coherent twin boundaries, other low index boundary plane grain boundaries with twist character are relatively resistant to creep. 相似文献

Alloy 617, a high-temperature creep-resistant, nickel-based alloy, is being considered for the primary heat exchanger for
the Next Generation Nuclear Plant (NGNP), which will operate at temperatures exceeding 760 °C and a helium pressure of approximately
7 MPa. Observations of the crept microstructure using optical microscopy indicate creep stress does not significantly influence
the creep void fraction at a given creep strain over the relatively narrow set of creep conditions studied. Void formation
was found to occur only after significant creep in the tertiary regime (>5 pct total creep strain) had occurred. Also, orientation
imaging microscopy (OIM) was used to characterize the grain boundaries in the vicinity of creep voids that develop during
high-temperature creep tests (900 °C to 1000 °C at creep stresses ranging from 20 to 40 MPa) terminated at creep strains ranging
from 5 to 40 pct. Preliminary analysis of the OIM data indicates voids tend to form on grain boundaries parallel, perpendicular,
or 45 deg to the tensile axis, while few voids are found at intermediate inclinations to the tensile axis. Random grain boundaries
intersect most voids, while coincident site lattice (CSL)–related grain boundaries did not appear to be consistently associated
with void development. Similar results were found in oxygen-free, high-conductivity (OFHC) copper, severely deformed using
equal channel angular extrusion, and creep tested at 450 °C and 14 MPa. 相似文献
