Abstract

Binary NiAl suffers from a lack of strength and poor creep properties at and above 1000 K. Poor creep resistance in turn affects low cycle fatigue (LCF) lives at low strain ranges due to the additional interactions of creep damage. One approach for improving these properties involves microalloying with either Zr or N. As an integral part of a much larger alloying program the low cycle fatigue behavior of Zr and N doped nickel aluminides produced by extrusion of prealloyed powders has been investigated. Strain controlled LCF tests were performed in air at 1000 K. The influence of these microalloying additions on the fatigue life and cyclic stress response of polycrystalline NiAl are discussed.
