Transient and steady-state creep of single crystal NaCl was measured in the temperature range 560-736°C and at stresses between 0.027 and 0.188 MPa. Samples were loaded parallel to the <100> direction and strain was measured using a capacitive transducer having a resolution of 10-7.
The non-recoverable portion of the transient response can be represented by a power law in time with an exponent of about 0.55. The activation energy for transient creep in previously deformed crystals is 0.20 MJ mol-1, the same as that for steady-state creep, while the activation energy for transient creep in annealed crystals is 0.16 MJ mol-1 which is approximately equal to the activation energy for core diffusion. Transient strain rates are linearly proportional to stress.
Steady-state strain rates are proportional to σ4 for stresses above 0.1 MPa, in agreement with previous studies. Below 0.1 MPa the strain rates have a linear dependence on stress. We interpret this behavior to be analogous to Harper-Dorn creep in metals, although higher dislocation densities and the observations of orthogonal slip bands suggest that a different micromechanism may control Newtonian flow in this non-metallic system.
