Microstructure and Mechanical of Different TZM Alloys

In two different commercial TZM alloys, produced by vacuum melting and by powder metallurgy respectively, microstructural differences (particle size and chemistry, grain and subgrain sizes, dislocation density) have been found which affect the observed mechanical properties of the material. The compression-creep properties at 1423 K show a negligibly small creep rate at a stress of approximately 200 MPa. Trapping of dislocations by particles is proposed to be the controlling deformation mechanism during creep. The microstructure and fatigue properties of TZM welds were also investigated. Friction welds showed the best mechanical properties. Fatigue measurements in load control at room temperature and 1123 K show that the endurance limit of the vacuum-melted alloy is higher than that of the powder-metallurgically processed alloy.
