Mechanical Properties of Binary Ni3Al Single Crystals
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
The mechanical properties of binary Ni76.6Al23.4 single crystalline specimens have been studied in compression test over a wide range of temperature (293–1100K). The resolved proof stress (τ0.2%) and the corresponding work-hardening rate (θ0.2%) have been measured as a function of temperature. In addition, a technique of repeated stress relaxations has been used to investigate the related microscopic activation volume (V0.2%) and to characterize the variation in the density of mobile dislocations that occurs during such transient tests. It is observed that not only τ0.2% exhibits an anomalous behavior with temperature but also θ0.2%, while the stress dependence of V0.2% may be considered as normal, i.e. V0.2% is a monotonie decreasing function of stress.
