Abstract
The microstructure evolutions during 1000 °C-1000 h long-term aging and relevant 800 ~ 840 °C/220 ~ 300 MPa creep behaviors of a novelly designed multiphase Ni3Al-based intermetallic alloy were investigated. Results showed this alloy presented excellent intermediate temperature creep properties even after 1000 °C-1000 h long-term aging. A kind of bimodal R-type γ′ rafting structures were observed in the 800 °C/220 MPa creep process of the long-term aged alloy, and the creep resistance levels of three kinds of γ′ rafting structures were evaluated to be in the order of bimodal R-type γ′ rafting structures > R-type γ′ rafting structure > N-type γ′ rafting structure. The 1000 °C-1000 h long-term aging can promote the inhomogeneous precipitation of Cr4.6MoNi2.1 phase at the edge γ′+γ dendrite area, which can play the role of pinning dislocations and inhibiting the further rafting and coarsening of the R-type γ′ rafts during creep. Differed from Ni-based alloys and other Ni3Al-based alloys, this long-term aged alloy exhibited abnormal four-stage creep characteristics, which consisted of atypical short steady-state creep stage with step fluctuant feature and atypical long accelerated creep stage with creep rate increasing at a constant rate.
