The phases encountered in equilibrium in the composition range studied are as follows: the Ni based solid solution γ and intermetallic compounds based on Ni3Al(γ′), Ni3Ta(δ), and Ni6TaAI(η). The 85 at.-%Ni section is predominantly single phase γ at 1523 K. In the 75 at.-%Ni section, γ enters into equilibrium with γ′ and δ;γ′ enters into equilibrium with γ, η, and δ to form γ + γ′ + δ and γ′ + η + δ phase regions. In the two phase γ + γ′ region, lattice parameter mismatch values lie in the range 0.56–0.81%.

The thermally activated cutting of γ iron particles, dependent on the creation of a new interface area, has been suggested as another possible mechanism controlling the steady state creep rate in all external conditions. This mechanism probably dominates at least at high stresses. The intergranular creep fracture in the alloy investigated is probably controlled by the same mechanisms as creep itself.","PeriodicalId":18750,"journal":{"name":"Metal science","volume":"8 1","pages":"137-142"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80393361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is shown that a precise microhardness measurement when combined with an electrical resistance measurement is highly suitable for investigations of the GP zone stage and the γ′ phase. Isotherms of microhardness indicate the beginning of growth of the γ′ phase by a marked steepening of their slopes. The maximum hardness can be taken as a measure of the completion of the hardening process. Isotherms of the change in electrical resistance show two other significant points: the resistance maximum which records the GP zone density, and thereafter the intersection of the resistance curve with the abscissa which indicates a time related to the disappearance of GP zones.","PeriodicalId":18750,"journal":{"name":"Metal science","volume":"42 1","pages":"153-157"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81035936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is seen that the strengthening effect of martensite becomes greater than that of eutectoid at larger strains. Analysis of stress–strain curves shows that the strain hardening exponent n changes continuously with strain and, as such, the analysis based on the Ludwik equation (σ = σ0 + k′ep n′) is performed. It is found that alloys showing higher ductility exhibit a three stage behaviour.

Many alloys, however, are prone to cavitation, which leads to premature failure even though deformation is within the superplastic regime. A model is presented which analyses the evolution of pre-existing cavities in two phase alloys subjected to uniaxial stress systems. It is seen that this model adequately describes the cavitation phenomenon of α–β brasses and microduplex Cu-Zn-Ni alloys in the tensile test. Closure of cavities in the compression test may also be described by this model. The results obtained thus enable the formation of an overall view of the behaviour of a two phase superplastic alloy subjected to the uniaxial tension test, and the difference in cavity evolution of different materials.","PeriodicalId":18750,"journal":{"name":"Metal science","volume":"54 1","pages":"143-152"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73484449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A few oxidation experiments were made with pure iron at 700 and 950°C. The present findings shed additional light on the effect of water vapour in the oxidizing furnace atmosphere on the rate of oxidation of pure iron and Fe-C alloys. In the absence of water vapour, scale detachment caused the Fe-C alloys to be oxidized at a lower rate. In oxidizing gas mixtures containing water vapour, the scale remained attached to the metal surface for considerably longer reaction times, and the scale growth progressed in accordance with the parabolic rate for pure iron. These findings substantiate those of earlier studies and imply that the presence of water vapour in the oxidizing gas enhances the rate of creep in the scale.
