Since superalloys remain under stress at the high temperatures for prolonged periods, a substantial creeping resistance is necessary. It is much crucial for cast blade alloys as these will be used in temperature conditions up to 1100oC however the disk alloys are commonly used below 700oC. For a certain stress and temperature limit, dual phase super alloys have larger creeping resistance as compared to their single phase forms. Since with entire characteristics that are monitored through plastic deformation procedures,creep properties are susceptible to microstructure of a material. chemical composition of an alloy is also essential to creeping characteristics. Since the rate controlling procedures in creep is diffusion based, elements possessing small interdiffusion coefficients with nickel are advantageous in creeping.

The outstanding creep characteristics are widely due to the high resistance of the precipitates to shearing extended to high temperatures. There have been latest efforts to recognize the creep conduct of superalloys using range of deformation mechanics.
