Abstract

This work investigates the effect of cyclic creep on the long-term oxidation of a directionally-solidified nickel-based superalloy DZ445 up to 1800 h. The stress application of cyclic creep refines the oxides, increases the oxidation weight gain, reduces the oxidation rate exponent, and decreases the activation energy. It enhances the content of Al2O3 and TiO2 in the outermost layer and in the sub-outer layer of CrTaO4 in the film. It delays the formation of the continuous innermost layer of Al2O3 and the sub-inner layer that is rich in Al2O3. The change of phase content and type in the oxidation layers could be ascribed to the diffusion kinetic effect of cyclic creep stress in the superalloy.
