W. (Monash University) Fang, H. (TU Delft Novel Aerospace Materials) van Dijk, N.H. (TU Delft RST/Fundamental Aspects of Materials and Energy) van der Zwaag, S. (TU Delft Novel Aerospace Materials) Hutchinson, C. R. (Monash University) Date 2017-02-27 Abstract The precipitation of Au-rich precipitates on the external surfaces of Fe-Au alloys has been studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The surface precipitates formed at elevated temperatures are found to self-organize in regular patterns and their growth rate is determined quantitatively. The observed surface precipitation at a free surface is compared to the precipitation at the internal surface of grain boundary cavities induced by creep loading. A close agreement between both processes is observed.
