The results show that the sample annealed at 300 ℃ undergoes PLC effect,whereas the PLC effect is not observed in the deformed sample or the samples annealed at 110 ℃ or 200 ℃. The main precipitates in the sample annealed at 300 ℃ are the coarsened η phases,while a mixture of small η' phases and η phases dominates in the sample annealed at 200 ℃. In the deformed sample and sample annealed at 110 ℃,GP zone are the main precipitates. The different flow behaviors are ascribed to the type of precipitates as well as the dislocation density differences.展开更多
