The shape of X-ray reflections from the cuboidal γ/γ'-microstructure was investigated. The measurements were performed on the 4th generation single-crystal nickel-base superalloy TMS138. It is shown that reflections from non-cubic crystallographic planes split not only in d-scale due to the different spacing of the γ- and γ'-lattices but also in the pole figure due to the tilting of γ-lattice planes. This tilting results from the elastic distortion of the γ-lattice caused by the γ/γ'-misfit. The results obtained are discussed under the methodical aspect of misfit measurement.
The thermal stability of the microstructure of a heat-resistant cobalt alloy, which consists of a γ solid solution strengthened with γ'-phase precipitates, has been studied. The temperature behavior of the dissolution of the hardening γ' phase and the kinetics of its coarsening at 700 and 800°C have been determined. It is found that, during prolonged annealing at 800°C, the γ' → β phase transformation occurs.
A new technique for investigation of interfacial dislocations in nickel-base superalloys by scanning electron microscopy is presented. At high temperatures the pressure of interfacial dislocations against the γ/γ'-interface causes grooves. This 'fingerprint of the dislocation network' is visualized by deep selective etching, which removes the γ'-phase down to the γ/γ'-interface. Compared with transmission electron microscopy, the proposed method has important advantages: observation of large sample areas, no superposition of dislocations lying in different specimen depths, possibility of three-dimensional view of dislocation configurations, information about the dislocation mobility, reduced time for preparation and visualization. The method can be applied for multiphase materials where the interface is grooved by interfacial dislocations.

Rafting during high temperature deformation in a single crystal superalloy: experiments and modeling
(2012)
Pore annihilation during hot isostatic pressing (HIP) was investigated in the single-crystal nickel-base superalloy CMSX-4 experimentally by interrupted HIP tests at 1288 °C/103 MPa. The kinetics of pore annihilation was determined by density measurement and quantitative metallography. Transmission electron microscopy of a HIPed specimen showed that the pores shrink via dislocation movement on octahedral glide planes. Theoretically pore closure under HIP condition was modelled by the finite element method using crystal plasticity and large strain theories. The modelling gives a similar kinetics of pore annihilation as observed experimentally, however somewhat higher annihilation rate.
A new experimental technique (repeated load annealing of flat wedge shaped specimens) was proposed for characterization of microstructural degradation under creep conditions. This technique was applied to investigate the microstructural degradation of the nickel-base superalloy CMSX-4 in a wide range of temperatures and stress levels. The results obtained allowed to describe analytically the kinetics of rafting, which is important to predict the reduction of fatigue lifetime and yield stress.
