Mechanical Properties and Deformation Texture of GH536 Superalloy Strip

Abstract:

With cold rolling deformation between 12.5% and 60% for GH 536 superalloy strips, effect of deformation on the mechanical properties, texture formation and microstructure evolution have been investigated. The results show that an increase of deformation will lead to an increase of mechanical properties. As the deformation was 60%, the tensile strength and yield strength of the strip were 1430MPa and 1370MPa, respectively, and the elongation of strip was 4.5%. Also, an increase of deformation will lead to an increase of hardness, yield ratio and deformation resistance as well as an increase of rolling textures such as Goss {110}<001>, S{213}<4>, Copper {112}<1> and especially Brass {110}<12>. The optimized processing parameters of cold rolling deformation between 25% and 37.5% have been proposed to obtain an excellent formability and cold workability for GH 536 superalloy strips.
