Abstract
Mechanical properties of nanocrystalline Fe-TiN and Ni-TiN alloys with various TiN contents between 17 and 64 vol pct, which are prepared by dynamically consolidating mechanically alloyed powders, have been inv estigated by means of hardness measurements and indentation creep test s at intermediate temperatures. The hardness increases with decreasing grain size to about 10 nm. The indentation creep curves conform well to an equation derived from a transient creep rate equation. The analy sis of creep curves indicates that the deformation occurs by a disloca tion mechanism controlled by grain boundary diffusion.
