Izvleček: | The fatigue process in materials is the failure mechanism with the presence
of cyclic stresses. Surface flaws and stress concentrators may lead to nucleation of
cracks during this process. The cracks propagate and cause component fracture after
a sufficient number of cycles. This failure mechanism has become increasingly
important as soon as the technological progress has enabled the implementation
of a larger number of structures subjected to different modes of loading and vibrations
such as the equipment used in the pre-salt industry. New materials are
being developed especially for this sector and they have to meet some specifications
to work on this harsh environments. Examples of materials used under such circumstances
are the resistant nickel-based alloys. In this context, this study aims to
evaluate the behaviour of the Nickel-based superalloy, Inconel 625, under load with
load ratio R equal to -1 as well as its mechanical and microstructural properties.
The mechanical, microstructural and morphological characterization of Inconel was
analyzed by axial fatigue, tensile, hardness, SEM, Electron Backscatter Diffraction
(EBSD), Energy-dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) and XRD tests. The results
indicated that Inconel 625 is able to associate high mechanical strength and moderate
hardness with good ductility. The diffractometry allowed to verify the presence
of a matrix phase and carbides of the types 23 6 and MC. The development
of the S-N curve made it possible to estimate the fatigue strength of the material
to be approximately 255 MPa. The fracture surfaces were observed by scanning
electron microscopy, in order to investigate the effects produced by fatigue cracks.
The presence of beach marks and fatigue striations were observed, they are typical
characteristics of the fatigue process. |
