Conclusions
Deformation of EP-741P heat-resisting alloy at a temperature of 750‡C occurs mainly through a shear mechanism, involving the formation of a succession of slip bands and also intergranular slip. Its fracture has a dual character, the crack passing both through powder particles and along their boundaries. Raising the oxygen content of a material produced from an atomized powder above 0.01% increases the proportion of deformation along original powder particle boundaries. The particles themselves experience no bulk plastic deformation. The fracture of such a material takes place chiefly along powder particle boundaries, at low levels of stress, local strain, and work of rupture, and with a high degree of sensitivity to stress raisers.
