Abstract

Low cycle fatigue of lamellar TiAl with 8.5 at.-%Nb was studied with a total strain amplitude of 0.28% at three temperatures: room temperature, 750°C and 900°C. At room temperature, the material exhibited cyclic hardening and the fracture mode was mainly interlamellar. At 750°C and 900°C, the material showed cyclic softening and the fracture mode was translamellar. The lattice strain in γ phase was almost tensile and larger tensile lattice strain in γ phase seems detrimental. Besides, the opposite direction of {201}γ and {100}α2 lead to crack propagation along α2/γ interfaces. B2/βo phase always suffered compressive lattice strain in the tests. The destruction of lamellar microstructure was the reason for colony refinement at 750°C and 900°C.
