Abstract:
The strain rate and temperature dependencies of the low temperature deformation behavior of fine grained arc-melted columbium, 1 part per million hydrogen (1 ppm hydrogen) were evaluated for tensile strain rates of 0.005, 0.10 and 6.0 in/in/min. The effect of hydrogen content (1, 9, and 30 ppm H) on the mechanical behavior was also investigated in the temperature range 25 to -195°C, using a tensile strain rate of 0.005/min. The existence of a hydrogen-dislocation interaction in columbium was confirmed by: (1) calculation of an apparent activation energy for the early stages of low temperature deformation; (2) observation of a hydrogen induced strain aging peak at -50°C, for columbium containing 30 ppm H; and (3) observation of a serrated stress-strain curve at 25°C in coarse grained columbium containing 89 ppm H.
