Abstract

After compressive deformation at 1000 °C and a strain rate of 2.5 × 10−4 s−1, deformation mechanisms in the [001]-oriented single-crystal nickel-based superalloy CMSX-4 are investigated. We found that besides dislocation climb, microtwinning and three different shearing processes, which separately result in the formation of pairs of a/2〈101〉 dislocations, a〈001〉 superdislocations and isolated superlattice stacking faults, operate simultaneously during plastic deformation, hence providing new insights into understanding the deformation mechanisms in nickel-based superalloys.
