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.
Creep damage of single-crystal nickel base superalloys: mechanisms and effect on low cycle fatigue
(2010)
The main mechanisms of creep damage of single-crystal nickel-base superalloys are the loss of the interface coherency, coarsening of the γ / γ'-microstructure, precipitation of topologically closed packed phases and growth of porosity. This degradation deteriorates the mechanical properties such as yield stress, creep lifetime and especially low-cycle fatigue life, which can be reduced nearly by a factor of 10. The degradation kinetics during creep was characterised quantitatively on the superalloy CMSX-4. A new non-destructive testing technique was applied to cover a wide test parameter range with few specimens in a relatively short time: repeated load annealing of wedge shaped specimens.
