Abstract: The dislocation configuration in coarse dendrite and fine dendrite as well as superfine dendrite single crystals of CMSX-2 superalloy after rupture d e formation was investigated. The results show that the dislocation nets formed at γ′/γ phase interface are more integrated in superfine dendrite single crystals than those in coarse dendrite single crystals. In addition,the distribution o f dislocations in γ′ phase of superfine dendrite single crystals is more uniform and the number of dislocations cutting γ′ phase is fewer than that in coarse dendrite single crystals. This reveals that superfine super alloy has higher ability in resisting creep deformation than coarse dendrite super alloy does.
