Abstract
Abstract—Both high‐cycle and low‐cycle fatigue properties of hot‐extruded powders of a Ni3Al‐based alloy, IC218, have been evaluated. High cycle fatigue measurements were performed under stress controlled conditions at temperatures ranging from 25°C to 850°C. Tests were made in both laboratory air and vacuum environments. Low cycle fatigue tests were conducted under total strain control in a laboratory air environment at 650°C. In high cycle fatigue, high ratios of the fatigue limit (Δσ at 106 cycles) to monotonic yield strength (σys), of approximately Δσ/σys∼1, were obtained in the powder extruded IC218 alloy for temperatures ranging from 25°C to 650°C. In low cycle fatigue, a substantial decrease in fatigue life occurred at 650°C, compared to results obtained previously at 25°C. High cycle fatigue performance at low stress/strain amplitudes is better than expected when compared to precipitation strengthened superalloys. The improved performance is explained in terms of the cyclic hardening behavior of the alloy.
