High-Temperature Creep-Deformation Behavior of the Ni-Based Superalloy M963

摘要

The high-temperature creep-deformation behavior of a Ni-based M963superalloy has been investigated over a broad stress range of 80 to 600 MPa at high temperatures (800 deg C to 975 deg C),. The detailed dislocation configurations at different creep stages are examined through transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results show that the deformation mechanism is stress and temperature dependent and mainly consists of three dislocation-controlling mechanisms: stacking faults and dislocation-pair shearing, dislocation bowing and Orowan looping, and dislocation climb.
