Grain Boundary Relaxation in a Fe-Cr-Al Alloy

Article Preview

Abstract:

The features of grain boundary relaxation of a (wt.%)Fe-25Cr-5Al alloy have been investigated using a multifunction internal friction apparatus. The grain boundary relaxation peak appears at about 630oC on the internal friction-temperature curves for the alloy. The peak temperature shifts toward high temperature with increasing frequency. In terms of Arrihenius relation, the activation energy is calculated to be 4.07(±0.15)eV and the pre-exponential factor is 6.2×10-24±1s. Grain boundary relaxation strength remarkably decreases with increasing grain size. When grain size reaches 520μm, the grain boundary relaxation peak almost disappears.
