Abstract
Quantifying the residual stress at micron-scale is crucial for comprehending the trans- and inter-granular deformation mechanisms and the influence of heat treatment, but remains technically challenging. This study utilized focused ion beam and digital image correlation (FIB-DIC) techniques to assess residual stress within the dendrite stem and arm of nickel-based single-crystal superalloys. The influence of hot isostatic pressing (HIP) on the microstructure and residual stress was also elucidated. Our results revealed that the residual stresses in the dendrite stem and arm regions manifest as tensile stress along the x-axis and compressive stress along the y-axis, with a range of -720 MPa to 680 MPa. HIP treatment effectively improved microstructure and regulated residual stress in nickel-based single-crystal superalloys, leading to a rapid reduction in residual stress levels. The present study lays a solid theoretical groundwork for optimizing processing strategies to regulate residual stress and enhance mechanical properties in next-generation single-crystal superalloys.
