Hot hardness has been measured in seven isostructural Be12X compounds: Be12Cr, Be12Mn, Be12V, Be12Mo, Be12Ti, Be12Ta, and Be12Nb. All vacuum-hot-pressed (VHP) materials exhibited similar hardness levels (800 to 1000 kg/mm2) at low temperatures (<600 °C), but sharply diverged at higher temperatures. Most compounds showed a sharp decrease in hardness above about one-half their melting temperatures except for Be12Nb and Be12Ti which maintained strength until higher temperatures. Ductile-brittle transition temperatures (DBTT's) of 600, 625, 690, 700, 700, and 850 °C were determined for Be12Cr, Be12Mn, Be12V, Be12Mo, Be12Ti, and Be12Nb, respectively. Hot-isostatically-pressed (HIP) and VHP Be12Nb heats both showed comparable behavior, indicating that the temperature required for macroscopic plasticity is not dependent on processing conditions. Differences in slip characteristics were observed between beryllides with similar melting temperatures, but differing DBTT's. Dislocations were activated on multiple slip systems in Bei2V during compressive deformation at 800 °C. Similar behavior was not observed in Be12Nb until test temperatures above 1000 °C. It is proposed that dislocation mobility may be related to the stability between Be12X and Be17X2 phases. Larger refractory metal atoms such as Nb may form faulted layers related to Be17X2 structures and thereby impede deformation at intermediate temperatures. Smaller atoms such as Cr, Mn, V, and Mo do not form a stable Be17X2 phase and thereby allow enhanced dislocation mobility at these temperatures.

AbstractThe dislocation configurations produced by room and high temperature compression of <100> oriented single crystals of binary NiAl and in those containing iron and hafnium additions have been analysed and compared to those obtained by hardness indentation and TEM insitu tensile tests. Kinking occurs during room temperature compression such that <100> dislocations are activated in all cases but the iron-containing alloy also exhibited a large density of <111> screw dislocations. The latter however, appear immobile when they are created by hardness indentations of thin foils, while only pile-ups of <100> segments can propagate. Similarly, although different slip systems are present after high temperature compression, only <100> dislocation segments have been confirmed to be mobile after room temperature hardness indentation of these predeformed thin foils. The improvement in ductility observed at room temperature in the predeformed specimens of the binary and the iron containing alloys has been attributed to the increased production of these mobile <100> dislocations.

ABSTRACTSamples of polycrystalline Ti3Al-base alloys, and a two phase Ti3Al/TiAl mixture have been deformed at room temperature and at elevated temperatures and examined subsequently by transmission electron microscopy in order to determine the influence of temperature and alloy content on the relative activity of the various slip systems. In particular, the detailed influence of covalent bonding on dislocation mobility in Ti3Al has been identified.

Uniaxial compression tests and hydrostatic tests at pressures up to 27 kbars have been performed to determine operating slip systems in single crystal and polycrystal1ine beryllium. A recent study has been made of wave propagation in single crystal beryllium by shock loading to selectively activate various slip systems, and this has been followed by a study of wave propagation and spallation in textured, polycrystal1ine beryllium. An alteration in the X-ray diffraction pattern has been noted after shock loading, but this alteration has not yet been correlated with any structural change occurring during shock loading of polycrystal1ine beryllium.This study is being conducted in an effort to characterize the effects of shock loading on textured, polycrystal1ine beryllium. Samples were fabricated from a billet of Kawecki-Berylco hot pressed HP-10 beryllium.

Ti3Al is an ordered intermetallic compound having the DO19-type superlattice structure. The compound exhibits very limited ductility in tension below 700°C because of a pronounced planarity of slip and the absence of a sufficient number of independent slip systems. Significant differences in slip behavior in the compound as a result of differences in strain rate and mode of deformation are reported here.Figure 1 is a comparison of dislocation substructures in polycrystalline Ti3Al specimens deformed in tension, creep, and fatigue. Slip activity on both the basal and prism planes is observed for each mode of deformation. The dominant slip vector in unidirectional deformation is the a-type (b) = <1120>) (Fig. la). The dislocations are straight, occur for the most part in a screw orientation, and are arranged in planar bands. In contrast, the dislocation distribution in specimens crept at 700°C (Fig. lb) is characterized by a much reduced planarity of slip, a tangled dislocation arrangement instead of planar bands, and an increased incidence of nonbasal slip vectors.

The oxidation of natural olivine has previously been performed on bulk samples and the reactions followed by preparation of TEM specimens from the annealed material. These results show that below ∼1000°C hematite and amorphous silica are formed, particularly around dislocations. At higher temperatures magnetite and some enstatite-like phase are formed. In both cases the olivine is left almost totally Fe depleted. By performing the oxidation on characterized thin TEM specimens it is possible to obtain more information on the nucleation and growth of the second phases formed. The conditions in a thin foil, however, are very different from those in the bulk especially with regard to surface effects. The nucleation of precipitates in particular may be expected to occur differently in these thin foils than in the bulk.TEM specimens of natural olivine (approximate composition Mg+Fe+Si2o4) which had been annealed at 1000°C for 1 hr were prepared by mechanical polishing and dimpling, followed by Ar ion milling to perforation. The specimens were characterized in the electron microscope and then heated in air in alumina boats to 900°C for between 30 and 180 minutes.

The deformation behavior of metallic materials is modified by the presence of grain boundaries. When polycrystalline materials are deformed, additional stresses over and above those externally imposed on the material are induced. These stresses result from the constraint of the grain boundaries on the deformation of incompatible grains. This incompatibility can be elastic or plastic in nature. One of the mechanisms by which these stresses can be relieved is the activation of secondary slip systems. Secondary slip systems have been shown to relieve elastic and plastic compatibility stresses. The deformation of tungsten bicrystals is interesting, due to the elastic isotropy of the material, which implies that the entire compatibility stress field will exist due to plastic incompatibility. The work described here shows TEM observations of the activation of secondary slip in tungsten bicrystals with a [110] twist boundary oriented with the plane normal parallel to the stress axis.

MoSi2 has recently been investigated as a potential material for high temperature structural applications. It has excellent oxidation resistance up to 1700°C, a high melting temperature, 2030°C, and a brittle-to-ductile transition temperature at 900-1000°C. WSi2 is isomorphous with MoSi2 and has a body-centered tetragonal unit cell of the space group 14/mmm. The lattice parameters are a=3.20 Å and c=7.84 Å for MoSi2 and a=3.21 Å and c=7.88 Å for WSi2. Therefore, WSi2 was added to MoSi2 to improve its strength via solid solution hardening. The purpose of this study was to investigate the slip systems in polycrystalline MoSi2/WSi2 alloys.

A knowledge of the behaviour of dislocations in semiconducting materials is essential to the understanding of devices which use them . This work is concerned with dislocations in alloys related to the semiconductor GaAs . Previous work on GaAs has shown that microtwinning occurs on one of the <110> rosette arms after indentation in preference to the other . We have shown that the effect of replacing some of the Ga atoms by Al results in microtwinning in both of the rosette arms.In the work to be reported dislocations in specimens of different compositions of Gax Al(1-x) As and Gax In(1-x) As have been studied by using micro indentation on a (001) face at room temperature . A range of electron microscope techniques have been used to investigate the type of dislocations and stacking faults/microtwins in the rosette arms , which are parallel to the [110] and [10] , as a function of composition for both alloys . Under certain conditions microtwinning occurs in both directions . This will be discussed in terms of the dislocation mobility.
