Abstract

High temperature creep behavior of a nickel-rich Ni3(Al,Ta) with the L12 structure is investigated in order to clarify the influence of crystallographic orientation with respect to the stress axis. The single crystals with four different orientations are deformed in compressive creep at temperatures ranging from ‘M 23 to 1273 K under a constant load, initial shear stress being 35 to 120 MPa for (111)[101] slip system. The results show a distinct orientation dependence of creep strength, although shape of creep curves, stress exponent and the activation energy seem to be independent of the orientation. It is shown, however, the internal stress, being measured by strain transient dip tests, is found to be orientation dependent and the creep behavior is independent on orientation if it is interpreted using the effective stress instead of the applied shear stress.
