Abstract
AbstractUsing a cylindrical indenter, the indentation creep behavior of hot pressed and HIPed MoSi2-SiC composites containing 0-40% SiC by volume, was characterized at 1000-1200°C, 258-362 MPa. The addition of SiC affects the creep behavior of MoSi2 in a complex manner by pinning grain boundaries during pressing, thus leading to smaller MoSi2 grains; by obstructing or altering both dislocation motion and grain boundary sliding; and by increasing the overall yield stress of the material. Comparisons are made between indentation and compressive creep studies. It is shown that under certain conditions, compressive creep and indentation creep measurements yield comparable results after correcting for effective stresses and strain rates beneath the indenter.
