Abstract

In order to obtain more complete information about the strain rate sensitivity of the flow stress of L12 alloys, Ni3Al,Ta) single crystals have been deformed in compression, over a range of temperatures (293–1273K), at two different strain rates and in stress relaxation experiments.

During the stress relaxation tests, at almost all the temperatures (except T~470K), a logarithmic decrease of the stress as a function of time has been observed. This is in fair agreement with the classical frame work of the thermal activation theory of dislocation glide. Thus, the corresponding apparent activation volumes have been determined and the nonmonotonic variation of this activation parameter with the temperature indicates that it is necessary to consider more than one plastic deformation process. These new results are discussed in terms of the previously published models which account for the plastic behaviours of the L12 compounds.
