Mechanical Behavior of Single Crystalline A166.8Ti27.4Fe5.8
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 February 2011
Abstract
The operating slip systems and flow behavior of single crystalline A166.8Ti27.4Fe5.8 having the L12 structure were investigated at elevated temperatures using specimens with compressive axes near [001], [113], [112], [013] and [133]. Plastic deformation was carried exclusively by octahedral slip at low temperatures, and by both octahedral and cube slip at high temperatures. The yield stress is roughly temperature-independent at intermediate temperatures, but changes rapidly with temperature at high and low temperatures. At 770°C fracture occurs by cleavage on {011}, {001}, {013} and {111} planes. Al2Ti and AlTi3 were found in the single crystal matrix. The effects of these second phases on the mechanical behavior are not the same: Al2Ti does not embrittle the material but AlTi3 does.
