Abstract

We elucidate here the effect of low oxygen partial pressure on the dwell fatigue crack growth rate (DFCGR) of 718Plus alloy at high temperature. In comparison under the air and vacuum conditions with lower oxygen partial pressure, the DFCGR of 718Plus alloy reduced by three orders of magnitude at 704 °C at lower oxygen partial pressure than that of in air condition. By analysis of microstructure, oxide, and crack path under different conditions, it was considered that the oxygen-induced dynamic embrittlement (DE) was the dominant impact mechanism for fatigue crack propagation at high-temperature in 718Plus alloy. Meanwhile, the stress-accelerated grain boundary oxidation (SAGBO) mechanism also played a significant role, especially in the long step-wise period. In addition, the types of oxide formed in creep process were directly related to the oxygen partial pressure and oxidation time.
