The microstructure, high strain rate superplasticity and tensile creep behavior of directionally solidified (DS) NiAI-Mo(Hf) alloy have been investigated. The alloy exhibits dendritic structure, where dendritic arm is NiAl phase, interdendritic region is Ni3AI phase, and Mo-rich phase distributes in the NiAl and Ni3AI phases. The alloy exhibits high strain rate superplastic deformation behavior, and the maximum elongation is 104.2 % at 1373 K and strain rate of 1.04¡Á10? s?. The balance between strain hardening (by dislocation glide) and strain softening (by dynamic recovery and recrystallization) is responsible for the superplastic deformation. All the creep curves of the DS NiAI-Mo(Hf) alloy have similar shape of a short primary creep and dominant steady creep stages, and the creep strain is great. The possible creep deformation mechanism was also discussed. The creep fracture data follow the Monkman-Grant relationship.
