LID - 10.3390/ma15165491 [doi] LID - 5491 AB - The TiAl(47)Cr(2)Nb(2) alloy fatigue specimens were prepared by investment casting, and three kinds of surface processes were applied to fatigue specimens. These three processes were sand-blasting (SB), sand-blasting and shot-peening (SBSP) and sand-blasting and mechanical grinding (SBMG). The surface condition evolutions before and after thermal exposure at 700 degrees C for 24 h were investigated. The fatigue performances of specimens after thermal exposure were evaluated. The results show that the surface roughness Ra after SB, SBSP and SBMG processes were 3.14, 2.35 and 0.04 microm, respectively. After thermal exposure, they almost remained unchanged for all three processes. The SB process caused work hardening in the near-surface region and the work hardening reached saturation after the SB process. Due to the mechanical grinding (MG) process removing the uncertain thick hardening layer, the maximum hardness after SBMG process was noticeably lower than those after SB and SBSP processes. After thermal exposure, the maximum hardness after SB, SBSP and SBMG processes significantly recovered. The SBMG specimens had the highest fatigue limit of 350 MPa. This is attributed to the SBMG specimens having very smooth surfaces and some work hardening remaining near their surface layers.
