Abstract: | The creep behavior in pure aluminum has been investigated by helicoid spring creep tests at strain rates, \\dotε, lower than 10−10 s−1 and low temperature ranging from 0.32Tm to 0.43Tm. It was found that the creep behavior in this region depends strongly on grain sizes and impurity concentrations. For high-purity aluminum (5 N Al) with an average grain size, dg>1600 μm, nearly the wire diameter of the spring sample, where the role of grain boundary during creep deformation can be negligible, the stress exponent was n∼5 and the activation energy was Qc=32 kJ/mol. Microstructural observation showed the formation of large dislocation cells (∼10 μm) and tangled dislocations at the cell walls. For high-purity aluminum (5 N Al) with dg=24 μm, the stress exponent was n∼1 and the activation energy was Qc=15 kJ/mol. On the other hand, for commercial low-purity aluminum (2 N Al) with dg=25 μm, the stress exponent was n=2 and the activation energy was Qc=25 kJ/mol. Microstructural observations revealed dislocations emitted from grain boundaries, those dislocations interacting with intragranular dislocations and the formation of dislocation cells in the grains. Based on those experimental results, the low-temperature creep mechanisms in pure aluminum at \\dotε<10−10 s−1 have been discussed. |
