HIGH-TEMPERATURE MATERIAL DEGRADATION
Different materials have different temperature ranges in which creep deformation can
happen. When a material is stretched at a temperature close to its melting point, creep
deformation typically results.
In materials that are subjected to high temperatures, creep is frequently an issue.
Other microstructure alterations are brought about by the high temperatures at which creep
happens.
Microstructure deterioration and creep damage happen at the same time.
The temperature at which creep begins depends on the alloy composition.

CORROSION IN CREEP ENVIRONMENTS
A type of localized corrosion known as
creep corrosion is most commonly
found in high-humidity locations.
Figure: Failure of a coolant pipe due to creep These individual voids grow and link to
form cracks several grains long, and
finally, failure occurs. 5
POLYMER DEGRADATION
Time-dependent rise in strain is
observed in viscoelastic materials under
step-constant tension.

Polymer creep or viscoelastic creep are
terms used to describe this phenomenon.

COBLE CREEP
Another type of diffusion-controlled creep is called coble creep. In Coble
creep, the grains elongate along the stress axis as atoms diffuse along grain
boundaries.
Coble creep has the same linear dependence on stress as N-H creep and
occurs at lower temperatures. The temperature-dependent grain boundary
diffusion increases with temperature.
The temperature dependence is not as strong as in Nabarro-Herring creep,
though, because the number of nearest neighbors is effectively limited along
with the grain interface, and thermal generation of vacancies along the
boundaries is less common.
