The corresponding creep strain and mechanical properties of samples were studied by conducting creep tests and uniaxial tensile tests. The electrical conductivity was measured using an eddy-current conductivity meter. The microstructures were observed by transmission electron microscopy(TEM). With the increase in regression aging time, the steady creep strain first increased and then decreased, and reached the maximum at 45 min.The steady creep strain increased with the increase in regression aging temperature, and reached the maximum at 200 ℃.The level of steady creep strain was determined by precipitation and dislocation recovery. Creep aging strengthens 7B50-RRA treated with regression aging time at 190 ℃ for 10 min, and the difference in the mechanical properties of alloy becomes smaller. The diffusion of solute atoms reduces the scattering of electrons, leading to a significant improvement in electrical conductivity and stress corrosion cracking(SCC) resistance after creep aging. The findings of this study could help in the application of creep aging forming(CAF) technology in Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy under RRA treatment.展开更多

The addition of the Re element not only enhances the long-term creep properties of nickel-based SC superalloys, but also results in the formation of a topologically close-packed(TCP) phase which is a harmful and brittle hard phase. Here, high-temperature creep interruption tests of a nickel-based SC superalloy that contains4.8 wt% Re were performed under various temperatures and stress conditions, and the evolution of microstructure during creep was observed by scanning electron microscopy(SEM). The volume fraction of the TCP phase was also extracted to explore the mechanism that controls the impacts of the TCP phase on the creep properties.According to the microstructure evolution mechanism, the influence of the TCP phase was attributed to the initial damage and critical shear stress of the material. A creep performance prediction model for nickel-based SC superalloys considering the precipitation of the TCP phase that is based on the crystal plasticity theory and a modified creep damage model was established. The simulation curves fit well with the experimental results and the errors between prediction creep life with test results are within 5%.展开更多
