Abstract

An effort to modify the slip vector in the B2 compound NiAl was undertaken to overcome the brittle failure associated with the <100> slip vector which typically operates in this compound. Alloying additions were made to reduce the ordering energy of NiAl, and hence to promote <111> slip. Preliminary indications showed that Cr and Mn were effective in producing <111> slip in polycrystalline NiAl tested at room temperature. Two-surface slip trace analyses and TEM g·b analyses performed on aligned crystals of NiAl showed that <111> dislocations operate on either { 110} or {112} slip planes. However, the slip vector at 660°C was seen to revert to <100>, which operates on both {100} and {110} planes.
