Abstract

The kinetics of low temperature deformation were investigated in several different polycrystalline RuAl alloys with the use of strain rate change experiments at 77 K and 298 K. Compositions investigated include RuAl, RuAl+0.5%B, Ru51.5 A48.5, Ru52 Al48, RU53 A147+0.5%B, Ru54.5 Al45.5, and Ru52 Al43 Sc5. Flow stresses did not vary substantially with temperature between 77 K and 298 K. Rate sensitivities were low compared to other B2 compounds and similar in all compositions investigated. Analyses of dislocation substructures after low strain deformation were conducted. The deformation kinetics and substructural observations suggest a higher intrinsic deformability for RuAI alloys with respect to the other high temperature B2 aluminides.
