Temperature dependence tensile behaviors of additively manufactured GH4099 Ni-based superalloy

Additive manufacturing was currently widely used to fabricate complex-shaped superalloy components for extreme environment applications. To replace the components prepared by the traditional approaches, it is crucial to ensure the reliability of AMed superalloys, especially in a thermal-stress environment. In this work, the high-temperature tensile properties of AMed GH4099 nickel -based superalloy are studied to establish the relationships among deformation temperatures, mechanisms, and failure responses. The results show that the deformation mechanisms at 600 degrees C are mainly cross -slip of the slip bands and arrays, which induced a ductile fracture. Increasing the tensile temperature will cause a shift of the dislocation movement from cross -slip to Orowan looping and stacking fault shearing to dislocation entangles-recovery-recrystallization, and the fracture mode transformed from pure ductile to mixed ductile-brittle. Additionally, the neighboring grain boundaries and the carbide-grain boundary bondings will also change with the temperature, which is further linked to the mediate-temperature brittleness and high-temperature abnormal plasticity of this superalloy.
