TL;DR: The microstructural aspects of the superplastic phenomenon are reviewed in this article, where experimental results of a very large number of investigations are critically analysed in the context of: grain shape and size; grain growth; grain boundary sliding and migration, grain rotation and rearrangement; diffusion and dislocation activity.
Abstract: The microstructural aspects of the superplastic phenomenon are reviewed. The experimental results of a very large number of investigations are critically analysed in the context of: grain shape and size; grain growth; grain boundary sliding and migration, grain rotation and rearrangement; diffusion and dislocation activity. It is shown, that in spite of often conflicting evidence in the literature, a common pattern of microstructural behaviour emerges for all the materials and conditions investigated to date.

TL;DR: In this article, the superplastic behavior of a microduplex Fe-Cr-Ni (25·7Cr-6·6Ni) alloy was investigated in the as-worked, annealed, and prestrained conditions.
Abstract: The superplastic behaviour of a microduplex Fe–Cr–Ni (25·7Cr–6·6Ni) alloy was investigated in the as-worked, annealed, and prestrained conditions. In the early stages of deformation, flow stress depends significantly on strain, and also on the instantaneous microstructural state in the case of as-worked and annealed specimens. Under these conditions, the empirical parameters of the constitutive equation for superplastic deformation were found to depend systematically on strain. At 1000°C, strain hardening predominates, and this could be accounted for by grain growth and by the hardening produced by the noticeable dislocation activity. After suitable prestraining, steady-state deformation conditions may be attained; this may facilitate the collection of σ–e data, which could then be used to assess the relative importance of the appropriate deformation mechanisms.MST/125
