contents Controlling planar fault shearing mechanisms is key for improving the high-temperature creep performance of gamma prime-strengthened high-temperature superalloys. This work examines how the Ti concentration in L12-strengthened CoNi-based alloys affects planar fault formation during creep. Interrupted compressive creep tests were conducted at 1223 K under air with a constant load stress of 241 MPa. We found, for the first time, that high Ti additions shift the dominant gamma prime shearing mode from antiphase boundaries (APBs) in Ti-free and low-Ti alloys to superlattice extrinsic stacking faults (SESFs). Systematic ab initio calculations show that in high-Ti alloys, the elevated APB energy renders APB-shearing mode unfavorable. Nevertheless, the SESF energy decreases relative to that in low-Ti compositions, and an increased ratio of complex intrinsic stacking fault (CISF) to SESF energy promote the transformation of high-energy CISFs into lower-energy SESFs. Chemical analysis using scanning transmission electron microscopy combined with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy further reveals that, SESFs in high-Ti alloys are enriched in Ti, Mo and W, yet no grid-like ordering is observed. Together with the ab initio calculations, Mo and W additions in high Ti alloys could facilitate the transformation from L12 structure to low-energy D024 structure, indicating Mo and W segregation along SESFs is energetically favourable. Furthermore, the successive SESF thickening facilitates microtwinning in the absence of D024 ordering along SESFs, as an additional big carrier for creep strain. These new findings clarify the role of Ti in controlling planar fault shearing mechanisms, providing new insights for optimizing the creep performance of next-generation CoNi-based superalloys.
