Abstract
The internal friction of high-purity NiAl single crystals was investigated utilizing a low-frequency subresonance torsion apparatus. Above 1000K the damping increases strongly up to Q-1 = 0.3 at 1400K. The activation enthalpy of this viscoelastic relaxation depends on the composition and shows the highest value (2.8eV) for stoichiometric NiAl. The results are discussed in terms of diffusion-controlled climb of dislocations by vacancies.
