Compressive creep-deformation curves of the various (Mo_0.85Nb_0.15)Si₂-based two-phase crystals at 1400 °C. (a) Creep strain versus time curves in the 0° orientation at 300 MPa and (b) in the 45° orientation at 100 MPa. (c,d) Corresponding creep strain rate versus strain curves for Figs. (a,b), respectively.
