Abstract

High purity molybdenum disilicide was deformed in compression to strains ranging from 5 to >50%. The deformation was accomplished at temperatures in the range 1200°-1400°C and at strain rates from 10−3 to 10−5 sec−1. The strength of this high purity material was found to be at least twice that of MoSi2 produced by the hot pressing of commercial powder. Microstructural examination revealed that subgrain formation resulted from modest strains (≈10%) while dynamic recrystallization was observed following large strains. Transmission microscopy revealed a significant change in the dislocation substructure after straining as the temperature was increased from 1300°C to 1400°C.
