Abstract

The kinetics of domain growth in Ni4Mo in the temperature range of 600 to 850 °C were investigated using transmission electron microscopy. It was found that domain growth in Ni4Mo is analogous to metallurgical grain growth and can be described by the expressionD n =kt, whereD is the average domain size, t is the aging time, k is a constant, and the exponent n is the reciprocal of the slope of the log D vs log t plot. The value of n changed with temperature from 2.0 at 850 and 800 °C to 2.9 at 700 and 600 °C. This change was explained in terms of relative domain orientation effects. The activation energy for domain growth was obtained as 69 Kcal/mole (2.9 × 105 Joules/mole) in the temperature range of 800 to 850 °C and as 92 Kcal/mole (3.85 x 105 Joules/mole) in the temperature range of 600 to 700 °C, which on comparison with available diffusion data established that the growth process was interface-controlled at the higher temperatures and bulk diffusion-controlled at the lower temperatures.
