The orientation and stress dependence of the primary creep rate in single crystals of a nickel-base superalloy is predicted from crystallographic deformation mechanisms. An experimentally determined relationship between the deformation rate and applied stress is employed to calculate the independent contributions of each of the possible slip systems to the strain rate. Calculations were made for single crystals of a nickel-base superalloy tested in tensile creep at 1400 deg F, at which temperature the active slip planes are known to be {111}, and the slip directions either 〈110〉 or 〈112〉 at high or low strain rates, respectively. Comparison with measured primary creep rates showed the 〈110〉 contribution to be negligible and that while semi-quantitative agreement with the 〈112〉 analysis was obtained, an accurate prediction of creep rates may require inclusion of strain hardening in the analysis.

AbstractMulticomponent nickel base intermetallics with the L12 structure were evaluated as high temperature structural materials. The compounds were based on the γ' composition of PWA 1480, a high strength single crystal nickel base superalloy. The best balance of properties in the compound was achieved with <111> oriented single crystals but no significant advantage could be demonstrated over the precipitation hardened superalloys. Insufficient impact resistance was a major deficiency of the L12 compounds. Other nickel base intermetallics were also evaluated but showed little advantage over superalloys.
