Creep behavior of Ti-6Al-4V from 450°C to 600°C

Abstract

We present in this paper the creep behavior of Ti-6Al-4V from 450°C to 600°C under applied stress from 100 MPa to 500 MPa. Creep behavior is studied analyzing creep damage after tests and calculating stress exponent (n) and activation energy (Q). Operating creep deformation mechanisms characterization is possible by analyzing crept microstructure by TEM. A comparison of n and Q values with values from literature and a correlation with TEM micrographs will lead us to a discussion about operating creep deformation mechanisms
