Abstract

Abstract A polycrystalline L12-hardened Co-base superalloy was creep deformed at 750 °C. The investigation of the deformed microstructure in the transmission electron microscope revealed microtwinning to be the prevailing deformation mechanism. The detected twins spanned the entire grain and cut through both, γ and γ′. Detailed high-resolution transmission electron microscopy investigations indicated that twin growth takes place by the slip of single a/6 〈112〉 partial dislocations along the twin boundary. Further analysis of the twin boundaries in the γ′ phase revealed segregation of elements known to decrease the stacking fault energy and a local depletion of γ′ forming elements. We propose that this segregation behavior enables subsequent a/6〈112〉 dislocations to easily slip along the twin boundary and further thicken the twins in the process.
