Abstract

The formation mechanism of the columnar-grained stoichiometric Ni3Al by FZ-UDS (unidirectional solidification using a floating zone method) was investigated. The quenched solidification interface showed that Ni3Al and β-NiAl formed simultaneously in the form of lamellar structure at the interface. The β-NiAl dissolved into the Ni3Al matrix during cooling, resulting in the columnar-grained structure of single phase Ni3Al at room temperature. The columnar-grained Ni3Al had a large number of low angle boundaries and exhibited a large tensile ductility. The characteristics of the deformation behavior were also investigated. Slip lines easily transferred acros.s grain boundaries without crack initiation. Deformed bands with many stacking faults were produced by deformation.
