Measurement of Press Creep Stress Exponent of ZM6 Alloy at Room Temperature

Article Preview

Abstract:

Nano-indentation technique was used to survey creep stress exponent of ZM6 (Mg-2.8Nd-0.7Zn-0.6Zr) alloy at room temperature. The results showed that average press creep stress exponent of ZM6 alloy was about 89.75, and independent of strain rate and hardness, which has been verified by linear relationship of the double logarithmic plots between strain rate ( ε& ) and hardness (H ) measured by a nano-indentation equipment with constant load of 500mN.
