Özet

In this study, the stability and microstructural evolution, including grain size and hardness of nanocrystalline Fe91Ni8Zr1 alloyed powders, produced by ball milling, were investigated after annealing at 900 and 1000 A degrees C for up to 24 h. Results indicate that rapid grain growth to the micron scale occurs within the first few minutes of exposure to the elevated annealing temperatures. However, despite the loss of nanocrystallinity, an extremely stable and efficient hardening effect persists, which has been found to be equal to that predicted by Hall-Petch strengthening even at the smallest grain sizes. The mechanical properties of the samples consolidated to bulk via equal channel angular extrusion at 900 A degrees C were evaluated by uniaxial compression at room and elevated temperatures. Results reveal high compressive yield stress as well as the appearance and disappearance of a yield drop indicating the presence of coherent (GP zone like) precipitates within the microstructure. Such a hardening mechanism has implications for developing new Fe-Ni-based alloys exhibiting a combination of high strength and ductility for high temperature applications.
