Abstract
Superplasticity was found in single-phase Ni–48Al alloy with initial grain size of 200 μm under an initial strain rate of 1.25×10 −4 to 2×10 −3 s −1 at temperatures ranging from 1025 to 1100 °C. The maximum elongation of 188.2% was obtained under an initial strain rate of 1.125×10 −3 s −1 at 1100 °C. Optical metallography (OM) showed that the grains were refined during superplastic deformation from initial 200 to less than 20 μm. Transmission electron microcopy (TEM) observation showed that an unstable subgrain boundary network formed during superplastic deformation. The subgrain boundaries were transformed into low- and high-angle grain boundaries by absorbing gliding dislocations. The large-grained superplastic phenomenon could be explained by continuously dynamic recovery and recrystallization (CDRR).
