The influence of microstructure on creep deformation was examined in the near-y TiAl alloy Ti-49A1-1V. Specifically, microstructures
with varying volume fractions of lamellar constituent were produced through thermomechanical processing. Creep studies were
conducted on these various microstructures under constant load in air at temperatures between 760 °C and 870 °C and at stresses
ranging from 50 to 200 MPa. Microstructure significantly influences the creep behavior of this alloy, with a fully lamellar
microstructure yielding the highest creep resistance of the microstructures examined. Creep resistance is dependent on the
volume fraction of lamellar constituent, with the lowest creep resistance observed at intermediate lamellar volume fractions.
Examination of the creep deformation structure revealed planar slip of dislocations in the equiaxed y microstructure, while
subboundary formation was observed in the duplex microstructure. The decrease in creep resistance of the duplex microstructure,
compared with the equiaxed y microstructure, is attributed to an increase in dislocation mobility within the equiaxedy constituent, that results from partitioning of oxygen from the γ phase to the α2 phase. Dislocation motion in the fully lamellar microstructure was confined to the individual lamellae, with no evidence
of shearing of γ/γ or γ/α2 interfaces. This suggests that the high creep resistance of the fully lamellar microstructure is a result of the fine spacing
of the lamellar structure, which results in a decreased effective slip length for dislocation motion over that found in the
duplex and equiaxed y microstructures.

The development of microstructure and its influence on creep properties have been studied for structures including equiaxed
γ, duplex, and other structures of varying α2 morphology in two Ti-48Al-2Cr-2Nb alloys. Heat treatment at 1125°C have been utilized to produce equiaxed γ microstructures
in alloys with or without Mo additions. The γ→α transformation produces α2 plates with several orientation variants with γ grains during subsequent annealing of the equiaxed γ microstructures below
the α transus. Formation of this α2 morphology results from rapid up-quenching (UQ), and this structure persists through annealing, cooling, and creep testing.
Differences in minimum creep rates for several microstructures, containing varying amounts of multi-or single variant γ/α2 grains are shown to be minimal. The presence of Mo has also resulted in improved creep resistance in equiaxed γ and γ + α2 + B2 structures, as compared to similar microstructures in the Ti-48Al-2Cr-2Nb alloy. Deformation during creep at 760 °C
at stresses between 200 and 400 MPa occurs by a combination of twinning and dislocation glide without recrystallization, resulting
in power-law stress exponents in the range of 6 to 9. Only minimal strain path dependence of the minimum creep rate is detected
in a comparison of creep rates in stress jump, stress drop, and single stress tests.

The feasibility of developing hydrogen-tolerant microstructures for α2 titanium aluminide alloys by heat treatment has been investigated. In particular, a variety of microstructures for the Ti-24Al-11Nb
(in atomic percent) alloy was developed by manipulating the heat-treatment conditions. After screening by the Vicker hardness
tests, three microstructures were evaluated for their resistance to hydrogen embrittlement by performing sustained load creep
tests in a gaseous hydrogen environment at an elevated temperature, followed by post-creep, slow-rate tensile tests at room
temperature. Tensile tests of hydrogen-exposed specimens without prior creep exposure were also performed. The results indicate
that one particular microcstructure of the Ti-24Al-11Nb alloy is resistant to hydrogen embrittlement under the test conditions
and hydrogen contents investigated, providing evidence that heat-treatment techniques can be used to develop hydrogentolerant
microstructures for α2 titanium aluminide alloys. 相似文献

A study has been made of the role of microstracture in room-temperature tensile properties as well as elevated-temperature
creep behavior of an advanced Ti3Al-base alloy, Ti-25Al-10Nb-3V-lMo (atomic percent). Creep studies have been performed on this alloy as a function of stress
and temperature between 650 °C and 870 °C, since the use of conventional titanium alloys has generally been restricted to
temperatures below 600 °C. A pronounced influence of microstructure on creep resistance was found. Generally, the β solution-treated
colony-type (slow-cooled or SC) microstructure showed superior creep resistance. This improved creep resistance in β/SC is
accompanied by lower room-temperature tensile strength and ductility. Study of the stress dependence of steady-state creep
rate indicates that increasing temperature caused a gradual decrease in the stress exponentn and a transition in creep mechanism at 870 °C, depending on applied stress level. Transmission electron microscopy observations
of deformed dislocation structures developed during steady-state creep and room-temperature tensile tests, as well as the
corresponding fracture modes, were used to interpret properties as a function of temperature. Finally, creep behavior of the
present Ti3Al alloy was found to be superior to that of conventional near-α titanium alloys.

Finite element simulations of the high-temperature behavior of single-phase γ, dual-phase α2+γ, and fully lamellar (FL) α2+γTiAl intermetallic alloy microstructures have been performed. Nonlinear viscous primary creep deformation is modeled in
each phase based on published creep data. Models were also developed that incorporate grain boundary and lath boundary sliding
in addition to the dislocation creep flow within each phase. Overall strain rates are compared to gain an understanding of
the relative influence each of these localized deformation mechanisms has on the creep strength of the microstructures considered.
Facet stress enhancement factors were also determined for the transverse grain facets in each model to examine the relative
susceptibility to creep damage. The results indicate that a mechanism for unrestricted sliding of γ lath boundaries theorized
by Hazzledine and co-workers leads to unrealistically high strain rates. However, the results also suggest that the greater
creep strength observed experimentally for the lamellar microstructure is primarily due to inhibited former grain boundary
sliding (GBS) in this microstructure compared to relatively unimpeded GBS in the equiaxed microstructures. The serrated nature
of the former grain boundaries generally observed for lamellar TiAl alloys is consistent with this finding. 相似文献

Creep of precipitation-hardened nickel-base alloy single crystals at high temperatures 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Single crystals of a γ′ precipitation-hardened nickel-base super alloy, Mar-M200, were tested in constant load creep at 1575°F.
It was found that shear of the γ′ precipitate by pairs of α/2 (110) dislocations controlled deformation in both primary and
steady-state creep. This contrasts with 1400°F creep behavior where shear of γ′ is dominated by α/3 (112) dislocations in
primary creep, but by pairs of α/2 (110) dislocations in steadystate creep. The orientation dependence of the steady-state
creep rate at 1575°F is explained by the nature of dislocation junction reactions for the different orientations. Crystals
along the [001]-[1•11] boundary have the greatest creep resistance because of the formation of stable dislocation networks
at the matrix-particle (γ⊃ interfaces, whereas the lower creep resistance of crystals oriented along the [001]-[0•11] boundary
is a consequence of the low probability for the formation of stable junction reactions. Finally, evidence, in the form of
resolvable α/2 (110) dislocation pairs within the γ′ precipitate, is presented for a reduction in the local antiphase boundary
energy of γ′ at high temperatures. 相似文献

Tensile properties up to 1100°F and the creep resistance at 1000°F were correlated with composition for twelve complex developmental
titanium alloys with additions of Al, Ga, Sn, Mo, Zr, and Si. Creep resistance for these alloys in the β heat-treated condition
was found to be strongly dependent on the totalα stabilizer content and the silicon concentration. The creep activation energy for a Ti-4.5 Al-2 Sn-3 Zr-3 Ga-1 Mo-0.5 Si
alloy, established over the 900° to 1100°F temperature range, was about 100 kcal per g-mole. This high creep activation energy
is hypothesized to result from dispersion strengthening within theα matrix by the Ti3
X
(X = Al, Ga, Sn) phase and pinning of the interplatelet and priorβ grain boundaries by the Zr5Si3 phase. Both phases were identified by transmission electron microscopy in these respective locations. Metallurgical instability,
as evidenced by decreased fracture toughness, is also shown to be relatable to the totalα stabilizer content. The activation energy for the embrittlement process is about 45 kcal per g-mole. which approximates that
for interdiffusion of gallium inα titanium. 相似文献

Optimization of Mo-Si-B intermetallic alloys 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Mo-Si-B intermetallics consisting of the phases Mo3Si and Mo5SiB2, and a molybdenum solid solution (“α-Mo”), have melting points on the order of 2000 °C. These alloys have potential as oxidation-resistant ultra-high-temperature
structural materials. They can be designed with microstructures containing either individual α-Mo particles or a continuous α-Mo phase. A compilation of existing data shows that an increase in the volume fraction of the α-Mo phase increases the room-temperature fracture toughness at the expense of the oxidation resistance and the creep strength.
If the α-Mo phase could be further ductilized, less α-Mo would be needed to achieve an adequate value of the fracture toughness, and the oxidation resistance would be improved.
It is shown that microalloying of Mo-Si-B intermetallics with Zr and the addition of MgAl2O4 spinel particles to Mo both hold promise in this regard.

Conventional α(hcp) and α(hcp)/β(bcc) titanium alloys exhibit significant primary creep strains at room temperature and at stresses well below their macroscopic
yield strength. It has been previously reported in various materials systems that repeated unloading during primary creep
testing may either accelerate or retard the accumulation of creep strains. These effects have been demonstrated to depend
on both microstructure and the applied stress. This article demonstrates that significant room-temperature recovery occurs
in technologically relevant titanium alloys. These recovery mechanisms are manifested as a dramatic increase in creep rates
(by several orders of magnitude) upon the introduction of individual unloading events, ranging from 1 minute to 365 days,
during primary creep tests. Significant increases in both creep rate and the total accumulated creep strain were observed
in polycrystalline single α-phase Ti-6Al, polycrystalline α/β Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo-0.1Si, and individual α/β colonies of Ti-6242. Based on transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies of the active deformation mechanisms, it is
proposed that the presence of significant stress concentrations within the α phase of these materials, in the form of dislocation pileups, is a prerequisite for significant room-temperature recovery.

The fully lamellar microstructure of powder metallurgy Ti-48Al-2W after cooling from the α region to 1280 °C, followed by air cooling and aging at 950 °C for up to 96 hours, is presented. Aging times as short as
5 hours result in acicular-shaped precipitates of W-rich β
0 along lamellar interfaces, with the β
0 size increasing with aging time. The β
0 precipitates nucleate and grow in the α
2 lamellae. Concurrently, with the formation of β
0, the α
2 decomposes into discontinuous lamellae. Aging to precipitate β
0 along lamellar interfaces increases the 760 °C tensile strength (with a slight reduction of ductility) and reduces the instantaneous
creep strain, since β
0 precipitates at lamellar interfaces hinder interface dislocation mobility. The deformed microstructures from interrupted
creep tests at 140 to 276 MPa at 760 °C indicate that the precipitation of β
0 along interfaces substantially reduces the primary creep strain, primarily due to the influence of β
0 on interface dislocation emission and motion. These results are discussed in terms of the influence of lamellar morphology
on the instantaneous creep strain and primary creep transient, and the possible creep mechanisms are highlighted.

Ambient- to elevated-temperature fracture and fatigue-crack growth results are presented for five Mo-Mo3Si-Mo5SiB2-containing α-Mo matrix (17 to 49 vol pct) alloys, which are compared to results for intermetallic-matrix alloys with similar compositions.
By increasing the α-Mo volume fraction, ductility, or microstructural coarseness, or by using a continuous α-Mo matrix, it was found that improved fracture and fatigue properties are achieved by promoting the active toughening mechanisms,
specifically crack trapping and crack bridging by the α-Mo phase. Crack-initiation fracture toughness values increased from 5 to 12 MPa√m with increasing α-Mo content from 17 to 49 vol pct, and fracture toughness values rose with crack extension, ranging from 8.5 to 21 MPa√m at
ambient temperatures. Fatigue thresholds benefited similarly from more α-Mo phase, and the fracture and fatigue resistance was improved for all alloys tested at 1300 °C, the latter effects being
attributed to improved ductility of the α-Mo phase at elevated temperatures. 相似文献

The need for structural materials with high-temperature strength and oxidation resistance coupled with adequate lower-temperature
toughness for potential use at temperatures above ∼1000 °C has remained a persistent challenge in materials science. In this
work, one promising class of intermetallic alloys is examined, namely, boron-containing molybdenum silicides, with compositions
in the range Mo (bal), 12 to 17 at. pct Si, 8.5 at. pct B, processed using both ingot (I/M) and powder (P/M) metallurgy methods.
Specifically, the oxidation (“pesting”), fracture toughness, and fatigue-crack propagation resistance of four such alloys,
which consisted of ∼21 to 38 vol. pct α-Mo phase in an intermetallic matrix of Mo3Si and Mo5SiB2 (T2), were characterized at temperatures between 25 °C and 1300 °C. The boron additions were found to confer improved “pest”
resistance (at 400 °C to 900 °C) as compared to unmodified molybdenum silicides, such as Mo5Si3. Moreover, although the fracture and fatigue properties of the finer-scale P/M alloys were only marginally better than those
of MoSi2, for the I/M processed microstructures with coarse distributions of the α-Mo phase, fracture toughness properties were far superior, rising from values above 7 MPa √m at ambient temperatures to almost
12 MPa √m at 1300 °C. Similarly, the fatigue-crack propagation resistance was significantly better than that of MoSi2, with fatigue threshold values roughly 70 pct of the toughness, i.e., rising from over 5 MPa √m at 25 °C to ∼8 MPa √m at 1300 °C. These results, in particular, that the toughness and cyclic
crack-growth resistance actually increased with increasing temperature, are discussed in terms of the salient mechanisms of
toughening in Mo-Si-B alloys and the specific role of microstructure. 相似文献

Conventional α(hcp) and α(hcp)/β(bcc) titanium alloys exhibit significant primary creep strains at room temperature and at
stresses well below their macroscopic yield strength. It has been previously reported in various materials systems that repeated
unloading during primary creep testing may either accelerate or retard the accumulation of creep strains. These effects have
been demonstrated to depend on both microstructure and the applied stress. This article demonstrates that significant room-temperature
recovery occurs in technologically relevant titanium alloys. These recovery mechanisms are manifested as a dramatic increase
in creep rates (by several orders of magnitude) upon the introduction of individual unloading events, ranging from 1 minute
to 365 days, during primary creep tests. Significant increases in both creep rate and the total accumulated creep strain were
observed in polycrystalline single α-phase Ti-6Al, polycrystalline α/β Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo-0.1Si, and individual α/β colonies
of Ti-6242. Based on transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies of the active deformation mechanisms, it is proposed that
the presence of significant stress concentrations within the α phase of these materials, in the form of dislocation pileups,
is a prerequisite for significant room-temperature recovery.

The substructure of AISI 316 stainless steel resulting from creep deformation has been quantitatively characterized using
transmission electron microscopy. The specimens were tested at temperatures and stresses ranging from 593° to 816°C and 8000
to 35,000 psi, respectively. Subgrains whose boundaries are predominantly (111) twist boundaries were formed in all tests
at and above 704°C but were observed very infrequently at 650°C and were completely absent after creep at 593°C. The subgrain
diameter,d, and the mobile dislocation density, ρ, were found to vary with the applied stress, σa, according to:d =kσa
-1 and ρα σa
2. Subgrain misorientation varys from less than 0.1 to 1 deg in each specimen seemingly independent of all parameters evaluated.
A double triple node dislocation configuration was frequently observed in all specimens. Its relation to the deformation process
is discussed in a mechanism involving the breaking of attractive dislocation nodes.

XD TiAl alloys (Ti-45 and 47Al-2Nb-2Mn+0.8 vol pct TiB2) (at. pct) were oil quenched to produce fine-grained fully lamellar (FGFL) structures, and aging treatments at different
temperatures for different durations were carried out to stabilize the FGFL structures. Microstructural examinations show
that the aging treatments cause phase transformation of α
2 to γ, resulting in stabilization of the lamellar structure, as indicated by a significant decrease in α
2 volume fraction. However, several degradation processes are also introduced. After aging, within lamellar colonies, the α
2 lamellae become finer due to dissolution, whereas most of the γ lamellae coarsen. The dissolution of α
2 involves longitudinal dissolution and lateral dissolution. In addition, at lamellar colony boundaries, lamellar termination
migration, nucleation and growth of γ grains, and discontinuous coarsening occur. With the exception of longitudinal dissolution, all the other transformation
modes are considered as degradation processes as they result in a reduction in α
2/γ interfaces. Different phase transformation modes are present to varying degrees in the aged FGFL structures, depending on
aging conditions and Al content. A multiple step aging reduces the drive force for phase transformation at high temperature
by promoting phase transformation via longitudinal dissolution at low temperatures. As a result, this aging procedure effectively
stabilizes the lamellar structure and suppresses other degradation processes. Therefore, the multiple step aging is suggested
to be an optimal aging condition for stabilizing FGFL XD TiAl alloys. 相似文献
