Abstract
The high cycle fatigue behavior of a Ni3Al base single crystal superalloy IC6SX has been investigated at 900°C in this work. The specimens used for the fatigue tests were prepared by screw selection crystal method in a directional solidification furnace. The rotating bending fatigue tests were carried out at 900°Cin air, the stress ratio of R(σmax/σmin) was -1, and the rotating speed of the fatigue tests was 6500r/min(108Hz). The stress-fatigue cycle life (S-Nf) curve was obtained based on the fatigue tests, and the fracture surfaces were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It has been found that the median fatigue strength is 457.5MPa and the safety fatigue strength is 413.93MPa. And the fatigue fracture was composed of three different characteristic regions.
