The oxidation behavior of the third-generation nickel-base single-crystal superalloy CMSX-10 is examined. Since the in-service
performance of the alloy is of the greatest practical significance, a detailed study is made of the microstructural degradation
of a turbine blade that had been removed prematurely from a commercial gas turbine engine. The results are augmented with
isothermal oxidation tests conducted in the laboratory for 100 hours, at temperatures of 800 °C, 900 °C, and 1000 °C. Scanning
electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, microhardness testing, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were
employed. It was found that the oxidation of CMSX-10 at temperatures below 1000 °C does not produce either Al2O3 or the spinel Ni(Cr,Al)2O4, both of which are found in the internal oxidation zone of the earlier generations of superalloys. Surprisingly, it is demonstrated
conclusively that the oxidation of CMSX-10 generates the β phase (NiAl). This reaction, which to the authors’ knowledge has not yet been reported, is termed self-aluminization. The
XRD studies demonstrate that the internal oxidation of CMSX-10 produces (Ni,Co)Ta2O6, (Ni,Co)WO4, CrTaO4, and Cr(W,Mo)O4. There is indication that the formation of the δ phase (Ni2Al3) slows the oxidation rate at 1000 °C. 相似文献

An investigation of dislocation structure in a single crystal nickel-base superalloy during low cycle fatigue (LCF) at 760
°C has been conducted. Dislocation bands are found to be produced first in the matrix in some defined directions. With an
increase in cycle numbers, there is an increase in dislocation density in the bands and a decrease in the spacing between
the bands, leading to the formation of the dislocation walls or cells. Sometimes, three-dimensional (3-D) networks are formed
also by the interaction between two sets of parallel dislocations. The Burgers vectors of the dislocations in the network
are 1/2 〈110〉. Clustering of dislocations eventually occurs at γ′/γ interfaces because of the obstruction of the γ′-particles
to moving dislocations. Most of the dislocations observed in the γ′-phases are in the form of superdislocations. Dislocation
shearing through theγ′-phase was found occasionally. Reprecipitation of γ′-phase induced by strain was also observed in the
present study. 相似文献

The isothermal fatigue behavior of a high-activity aluminide-coated single-crystal superalloy was studied in air at test temperatures
of 600 °, 800 °, and 1000 °. Tests were performed using cylindrical specimens under strain control at ≈0.25 Hz; total strain
ranges from 0.5 to 1.6 pct were investigated. At 600 °, crack initiation occurred at brittle coating cracks, which led to
a significant reduction in fatigue life compared to the uncoated alloy. Fatigue cracks grew from the brittle coating cracks
initially in a stage II manner with a subsequent transition to crystallographic stage I fatigue. At 800 ° and 1000 °, the
coating failed quickly by a fatigue process due to the drastic reduction in strength above 750 °, the ductile-brittle transition
temperature. These cracks were arrested or slowed by oxidation at the coating-substrate interface and only led to a detriment
in life relative to the uncoated material for total strain ranges of 1.2 pct and above 800 °. The presence of the coating
was beneficial at 800 ° for total strain ranges less than 1.2 pct. No effect of the coating was observed at 1000 °. Crack
growth in the substrate at 800 ° was similar to 600 °; at 1000 °, greater plasticity and oxidation were observed and cracks
grew exclusively in a stage II manner.

The effects of hydrogen on the low-cycle fatigue behavior of CMSX-2 [001]-oriented single crystals were examined. Fatigue
tests were conducted under constant plastic strain amplitude control. Cyclic stress-strain curves and fatigue life data at
different plastic strain amplitudes were determined for hydrogen-free and hydrogen-charged specimens. Two charging procedures,
leading to different hydrogen concentrations, were applied. Hydrogen was found to decrease significantly the number of cycles
to failure under the various experimental conditions. The increasing hydrogen concentration and ratio of the hydrogen to nonhydrogen-containing
volume were found to shorten fatigue life in hydrogen-charged specimens. Based on the analysis of cyclic stress-strain curves
and optical and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), it was established that hydrogen enhanced strain localization and
promoted crystallographic, stage I cracking, leading to embrittlement. The overall fracture mechanism is discussed in conjunction
with Duquette and Gell’s stage I fracture model.[16] 相似文献

The effect of brittle coating precracking on the fatigue behavior of a high-activity aluminide-coated single-crystal nickel-base
superalloy has been studied using hollow cylindrical specimens at test temperatures of 600 °, 800 °, and 1000 °. Three types
of precrack were studied: narrow precracks formed at room temperature, wide precracks formed at room temperature, and narrow
precracks formed at elevated temperature. The effect of precracking on fatigue life at 600 ° was found to depend strongly
on the type of precrack. No failure was observed for specimens with narrow room-temperature precracks because of crack arrestvia an oxidation-induced crack closure mechanism, while the behavior of wide precracks and precracks formed at elevated temperature
mirrored the non-precracked behavior. Crack retardation also occurred for narrow room-temperature precracks tested at 800
°—in this case, fatigue cracks leading to failure initiated in a layer of recrystallized grains on the inside surface of the
specimen. A significant reduction in fatigue life at 800 ° relative to non-precracked specimens was observed for wide precracks
and elevated temperature precracks. The presence of precracks bypassed the initiation and growth of coating fatigue cracks
necessary for failure in non-precracked material. No effect of precracking was observed at 1000 °.

The isothermal and thermomechanical fatigue (TMF) behavior of the titanium alloy IMI 834 was studied between 350 °C and 650
°C in air and vacuum, respectively. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations revealed that the microstructure established
in the TMF tests was governed by the maximum temperature within the cycle. However, if the maximum temperature does not exceed
600 °C, planar dislocation slip prevails and similar microstructures are formed regardless of the test temperature and the
testing mode (TMF and isothermal, respectively). As a result, the stress-strain response in TMF tests can be assessed from
the corresponding isothermal data. Wavy dislocation slip was found to determine the stress-strain behavior if the maximum
test temperature exceeded 600 °C. Moreover, in TMF tests with a maximum test temperature of 650 °C, the dislocation arrangement
formed in the high-temperature part of the hysteresis loop was found to be stable throughout the cycle and to affect significantly
the stress-strain response at the low temperatures. Although in-phase (IP) and out-of-phase (OP) TMF tests led to an almost
identical microstructure, OP loading was always found to be most detrimental. The interaction between the embrittled subsurface
layer, caused by oxygen uptake, and the high tensile stresses developing in the low-temperature part of the hysteresis loop
in OP tests eases crack initiation and initial crack propagation and results in reduced fatigue life. 相似文献

Uniaxial creep deformation and crack growth data are presented on the single-crystal nickel-base superalloy SC16, which is
a candidate material for industrial gas turbine applications. All testing was performed at 900 °C. The uniaxial experiments
were conducted with the loading direction aligned approximately along the [001] crystallographic axis of the material. Under
these conditions, a small primary region followed by mainly tertiary creep was obtained, and failure initiated from cracks
at interdendritic pores. The crack growth experiments were performed on single-edge notch tension specimens and compact tension
test pieces containing deep side grooves to examine state-of-stress effects. A selection of crystallographic orientations
was also examined. Little effect of stress state and orientation was obtained. It has been found that the creep crack growth
characteristics of the alloy can be predicted satisfactorily from a model of the accumulation of damage at a crack tip using
the creep fracture mechanics parameter C* and assuming plane stress conditions.
This article is based on a presentation made at the “High Temperature Fracture Mechanisms in Advanced Materials” symposium,
as a part of the 1994 Fall meeting of TMS, October 2-6, 1994, in Rosemont, Illinois, under the auspices of the ASM/SMD Flow

The low cycle fatigue (LCF) properties of a single-crystal nickel-base superalloy, René* N4, have been examined at 760 and
980 °C in air. Specimens having crystallographic orientations near [001], [01l], [111], [023], [236], and [145] were tested
in fully reversed, total-strain-controlled LCF tests at a frequency of 0.1 Hz. At 760 °C, this alloy exhibited orientation
dependent tension-compression anisotropies of yielding which continued to failure. Also at 760 °C, orientations exhibiting
predominately single slip exhibited serrated yielding for many cycles. At 980 °C, orientation dependencies of yielding behavior
were smaller. In spite of the tension-compression anisotropies, cyclic stress range-strain range behavior was not strongly
orientation dependent for either test temperature. Fatigue life on a total strain range basis was highly orientation dependent
at both 760 and 980 °C and was related chiefly to elastic modulus, low modulus orientations having longer lives. Stage I crack
growth on (111) planes was dominant at 760 °C, while Stage II crack growth occurred at 980 °C. Crack initiation generally
occurred at near-surface micropores, but occasionally at oxidation spikes in the 980 °C tests. 相似文献

An investigation was made on the strain-controlled low-cycle fatigue (LCF) of K40S cobalt-base superalloy at 900 °C in ambient
atmosphere. The results show that K40S alloy possesses high LCF resistance in comparison with X-40 alloy. Under the testing
conditions in this study, K40S alloy exhibits a cyclic stress response of initial hardening followed by softening. The cyclic
stress response behavior has been attributed to dislocation-dislocation interactions and dislocation-precipitate interactions.
The high response stress can lead to a large stress concentration at locations where inelastic strains of high amplitude accumulate,
which account for the decreasing fatigue life with increasing strain rate. The well-distributed carbide particles are the
“secondary” crack initiation sites. The secondary crack initiation relaxes the stress concentration at the crack tip, reducing
the driving force of crack propagation. High-temperature LCF failure of K40S alloy results from the interaction of the mechanical
fatigue and environmental oxidation. 相似文献

An investigation has been undertaken into the creep behavior of the single-crystal superalloy CMSX-4. Creep deformation in
the alloy occurs largely through dislocation activity in the γ channels. Shearing of the γ′ dislocations is observed, but, at higher temperatures, this does not occur until late in life via the passage of superpartial dislocation pairs. At lower temperatures (1023 K) and high stress levels, shearing of the γ′ precipitates is observed relatively early in the creep curve through the passage of {111}〈112〉 dislocations, which leave
superlattice stacking faults (SSFs) in the precipitates. The stress-rupture behavior of CMSX-4 has been modeled using a damage-mechanics
technique, where the level of damage required to cause failure is defined by the effective stress reaching the material’s
ultimate tensile strength (UTS). This technique ensures that short-term rupture data extrapolate back to the UTS. High-temperature
steady-state and tertiary creep are modeled using modified damage-mechanics equations, where the strain and damage rates are
similar functions of stress. At intermediate operating temperatures of 1023 to 1123 K, the material exhibits pronounced sigmoidal
primary creep of up to 4 pct strain, which cannot be modeled using a conventional approach. This transient behavior has been
explained by the effect of internal stresses acting on dislocations in the gamma matrix; such an internal stress has been
included in the creep law and evolves as a function of the damage-state variable. 相似文献

The thermal-mechanical fatigue (TMF) behavior of IN-100, a cast nickel-base superalloy, was investigated with a basic mechanical
strain-temperature loop applied in a temperature range from 600 °C to 1050 °C (873 to 1323 K). Peak strains were applied at
intermediate temperatures, giving a faithful simulation of real component parts. Tests with or without a mean strain were
used; other tests involved a longer period or a tensile hold time, and they were compared with conventional “in-phase” TMF
cycles. An interrupted test procedure was used with a plastic replication technique to define a conventional TMF life to 0.3-mm
crack depth, as well as a life to 50-μm, crack depth, to characterize the crack initiation period. Some stress-strain hysteresis
loops were reported. Thermal-mechanical fatigue life was found to be dependent upon test parameters, while the life to crack
initiation was not. Oxidation of specimens and micro-cracks was found to be important in all the tests. These results were
then discussed and compared with those under low cycle fatigue at high temperature.

Fatigue crack growth curves(Δa/ΔN =f(K
max
)) were measured with 2.5 mm thick sheets of electron beam welded iron base superalloy A286. Fatigue testing frequency was
21 kHz,R = −1 (mean stress zero) and the environment was noncorrosive silicone oil at 20 °C. Two series of samples with different
welding conditions were tested. One series was welded perfectly, whereas the second contained microcracks within the weld
and the heat affected zone. It was shown that the crack growth rate in the base metal is slower than in the weld. The threshold
stress intensity factorK
th
of the base metal is 14 MNm-3/2 and that of the weld, 10 MNm
-3/2
. However, at higherK
max
values, the crack grows more rapidly in the weld than in the base metal; for example, the crack growth rate is 16 times higher
at Kmax = 20 MNm
-3/2
. Microcracks introduced by an imperfect welding process do not influence the fatigue cracking behavior in the threshold regime;
atK
max
= 15 MNm-3/2, however, the crack growth rates differ by an order of magnitude. Fractographic examination shows considerable differences
in the fracture appearance of weld, heat affected zone, and base material. Weld and base metal display ductile fracture surfaces
and the heat affected zone is characterized by crystallographic fracture facets. 相似文献

Hot-isostatically-pressed powder-metallurgy Astroloy was obtained which contained 1.4 pct, fine porosity at the grain boundaries
produced by argon entering the powder container during pressing. The pores averaged about 2μ,m diam and 20 μ m spacing. This
material was tested at 650 °C in fatigue, creep-fatigue, tension, and stress-rupture and the results compared with previous
data on sound Astroloy. The pores influenced fatigue crack initiation and produced a more intergranular mode of propagation.
However, fatigue life was not drastically reduced. A large 25 μm pore in one specimen resulting from a hollow particle did
reduce life by 60 pct, however. Fatigue behavior of the porous material showed typical correlation with tensile behavior.
The plastic strain range-life relation was reduced proportionately with the reduction in tensile ductility, but the elastic
strain range-life relation was little changed reflecting the small reduction in strength divided by modulus for the porous
material. 相似文献

The influence of microstructure on the thermal fatigue (TF) behavior of MAR-M 509, a cast cobalt-base superalloy, was investigated
using a burner rig and wedge-type specimens which were submitted to thermal shock from 200 °C to 1100 °C. Two microstructures
were studied: a coarse microstructure using specimens machined from bulk castings and a fine microstructure using cast-to-size
specimens. Metallographic observations showed that cast-to-size specimens display a gradient in microstructure since the size
of secondary dendrites increases with the distance to the thin edge. As high-temperature fatigue in this superalloy is controlled
by oxidation-fatigue interactions, the kinetics of interdendritic oxidation was studied at 900 °C. Interdendritic oxidation
was found to be inhibited by a refinement of dendritic microstructure. A fine microstructure was shown to give a much longer
TF life-to-crack initiation and a much lower crack growth rate. This behavior was mainly related to differences in interdendritic
oxidation since interdendritic areas act as crack initiation sites as well as easy crack propagation paths. The influence
of microstructure on crack growth rates was accounted for by using a previously proposed oxidation-fatigue crack growth model
and interdendritic oxidation kinetic data.

Fully reversed low-cyclic fatigue (LCF) tests were conducted on [001], [012], [-112], [011], and [-114] oriented single crystals
of nickel-based superalloy DD3 with different cyclic strain rates at 950°C. The cyclic strain rates were chosen as 1.0×10−2, 1.33×10−3 and 0.33×10−3 s−1. The octahedral slip systems were confirmed to be activated on all the specimens. The experimental result shows that the
fatigue behavior depends on the crystallographic orientation and cyclic strain rate. Except [001] orientation specimens, it
is found from the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) examination that there are typical fatigue striations on the fracture
surfaces. These fatigue striations are made up of cracks. The width of the fatigue striations depends on the crystallographic
orientation and varies with the total strain range. A simple linear relationship exists between the width and total shear
strain range modified by an orientation and strain rate parameter. The nonconformity to the Schmid law of tensile/compressive
flow stress and plastic behavior existed at 950°C, and an orientation and strain rate modified Lall-Chin-Pope (LCP) model
was derived for the nonconformity. The influence of crystallographic orientation and cyclic strain rate on the LCF behavior
can be predicted satisfactorily by the model. In terms of an orientation and strain rate modified total strain range, a model
for fatigue life was proposed and used successfully to correlate the fatigue lives studied in this article. 相似文献

Previous investigations have invariably observed strain rate related deformation effects as the fatigue frequency is raised to the ultrasonic range. Through room temperature tests on strain rate insensitive nickel-base superalloy single crystals of Mar-M200, we have shown that another effect of increasing the fatigue frequency to the ultrasonic range is in the suppression of the deleterious influence of environment. It was found that above a stress amplitude of 30,400 psi the fatigue lives of crystals ultrasonically fatiguedin air increase with decreasing stress in a manner which is functionally similar to, that of crystals conventionally fatiguedin vacuum. Similarly, the fracture surfaces of ultrasonically fatigued crystals have a dimpled appearance over most of their areas which is characteristic of locally ductile failure and identical to, the appearance of crystals failed at conventionally frequency in vacuum. These results, along with a kinetic analysis of gaseous adsorption, indicate that the major effect of increasing the fatigue frequency to the ultrasonic, range is in the suppression of the influence of oxygen in enhancing the rate of crack propagation. In addition, the short test times involved in running large numbers of cycles have allowed for the determination of the fatigue limit in a nickel-base superalloy. This is the first indication of no-fail behavior in this type of alloy. 相似文献

The deformation and dynamic recrystallization behavior of Waspaloy-ingot material with coarse, columnar grains was established
using isothermal uniaxial and double-cone compression tests. Testing was conducted along different test directions relative
to the columnar-grain microstructure at supersolvus temperatures (1066 °C and 1177 °C) and strain rates (0.005 and 0.1 s−1), which bracket typical ingot-breakdown conditions for the material. The flow behavior of axial samples (i.e., those compressed parallel to the columnar-grain direction) showed an initial strain-hardening transient followed by steady-state
flow. In contrast, the stress-strain curves of samples upset transverse to the columnar grains exhibited a peak stress at low strains, whose magnitude was greater than the steady-state flow stress
of the axial samples, followed by flow softening. The two distinct flow behaviors were explained on the basis of the solidification
texture associated with the starting ingot structure, differences in the kinetics of dynamic recrystallization revealed in
the double-cone tests, and the evolution of deformation and recrystallization textures during hot working. Dynamic recrystallization
kinetics were measurably faster for the transverse samples as well as specimens oriented at ∼45 deg to the forging direction,
an effect partially rationalized based on the initial texture and its effect on the input rate of deformation work driving
recrystallization. Despite these differences, the overall strains required for dynamic recrystallization were comparable to
those measured previously for fine-grain (wrought) Waspaloy. However, the Avrami exponents (∼2 to 3) were somewhat higher
than those for wrought material (∼1 to 2), an effect attributable to the particle-stimulated nucleation in the ingot material. 相似文献

The susceptibility of an experimental nickel-based single-crystal superalloy to the precipitation of topologically close-packed
phases (TCPs) is considered. Its composition has been chosen to be enriched with regard to molybdenum with no tungsten being
present, in order to promote microstructural instability and to allow this to be studied. Two conditions are examined: (1)
as-cast and (2) as-cast with a solutioning and aging treatment. In the as-cast condition, it is shown that the interdendritic
region is already prone to TCP formation, and that further heat treatment in the vicinity of 1000 °C increases the extent
of this severely. This is attributed to the partitioning of Ta, which causes an increase in the γ′ volume fraction in the interdendritic regions and a concomitant enrichment of the γ matrix with respect to Mo and particularly Cr. In the solutioned and aged state, TCPs form after heat treatment in the range
from 800 °C to 1100 °C and form preferentially at the dendrite cores; this is due to the presence of residual Re, which does
not diffuse as quickly as Ta in the opposite direction. The different TCP particles exhibit very different morphologies. At
1000 °C, the P phase is prevalent; around 850 °C, the P phase is still found, but μ is predominant and is found in association with σ. The experimental data are compared with the predictions of thermodynamic software and a database of thermodynamic parameters;
the predictions are reasonable, although some discrepancies are noted. 相似文献

Isothermal fatigue tests and both out-of-phase and in-phase thermomechanical fatigue tests were performed in air and in helium
atmospheres. A wide range of temperatures from 20 ‡C to 700 ‡C was considered in these tests on 1070 steel specimens. A procedure
for inert atmosphere testing using encapsulated specimens is described. Results indicate that the fatigue lives are 2 to 12
times greater in helium than in air. Interrupted tests were performed to characterize the pro-gression of damage in the material.
Results indicate that oxidation-induced crack nucleation and crack growth are detrimental at high temperatures for isothermal
and out-of-phase thermome-chanical fatigue tests. In these tests, transgranular cracking is observed. However, creep-induced
intergranular cracking is the dominant damage mechanism during in-phase thermomechanical fatigue tests. 相似文献
