Abstract

It is well known the effectiveness of ausforming on increasing the dislocation density of fresh martensite. Here, this work demonstrates, using atom probe tomography, that this increase in the dislocation density has a strong influence on the nucleation of nanoprecipitates during tempering. Therefore, ausforming might be a powerful processing route for the two-fold improvement of ferritic/martensitic steels where creep resistance is of paramount importance. Firstly, ausforming refines the martensitic microstructure (high strength and toughness), and secondly, it increases the number density of thermally stable nanoprecipitates (creep resistance).

A comparative assessment of the fracture toughness behavior of ferritic-martensitic steels and nanostructured ferritic alloys

Journal Article Byun, Thak Sang ; Hoelzer, David T. ; Kim, Jeoung Han ; ... - Journal of Nuclear Materials

The Fe-Cr alloys with ultrafine microstructures are primary candidate materials for advanced nuclear reactor components because of their excellent high temperature strength and high resistance to radiation-induced damage such as embrittlement and swelling. Mainly two types of Fe-Cr alloys have been developed for the high temperature reactor applications: the quenched and tempered ferritic-martensitic (FM) steels hardened primarily by ultrafine laths and carbonitrides and the powder metallurgy-based nanostructured ferritic alloys (NFAs) by nanograin structure and nanoclusters. This paper aims at elucidating the differences and similarities in the temperature and strength dependences of fracture toughness in the Fe-Cr alloys to provide amore »« less

Report on the down-selected nanoprecipitates-strengthened advanced ferritic alloys for nuclear reactor applications

Technical Report Tan, Lizhen ; Chen, Tianyi ; Yang, Ying ; ...

One ferritic steel (BL-Nb) and one ferritic-martensitic steel (TTZ2M) were down-selected for further investigation. Based on the TTZ2M, two large-scale ferritic-martensitic heats, i.e., FTT1 and FTN1, were produced at industrial steelmaking facilities, which are in contrast to the small laboratory heats BL-Nb and TTZ2M. Other than the standard normalization and tempering condition of the ferritic-martensitic steels, a heat-treated condition was explored for the FTT1 and FTN1, which is named as FTT1-T and FTN1-T, respectively. Two-step aging was applied to BL-Nb to favor the precipitation of Laves and B2-NiAl phases. The alloy compositions and heat treatment temperatures were guided by computationalmore »« less

The nature of nano-sized precipitates in ferritic/martensitic steel P92 produced by thermomechanical treatment

Journal Article Shen, Yinzhong ; Shang, Zhongxia ; Xu, Zhiqiang ; ... - Materials Characterization

Thermomechanical treatment (TMT) can effectively improve the mechanical properties of high-Cr ferritic/martensitic (F/M) steels, which has been mainly attributed to a dense dispersion of nano-sized precipitates. Precipitate phases in high-Cr F/M steels produced by TMT require further investigations. Precipitates in commercial F/M steel P92 produced by a TMT process, warm-rolled at 650 °C plus tempered at 650 °C for 1 h, were investigated by transmission electron microscopy. Nano-sized precipitates with a high number density in the steel after the TMT were found to be Cr-rich M{sub 2}(C,N) carbonitride, rather than MX or M{sub 23}C{sub 6} phase. The M{sub 2}(C,N) carbonitridemore »« less

Multiscale investigations of nanoprecipitate nucleation, growth, and coarsening in annealed low-Cr oxide dispersion strengthened FeCrAl powder

Journal Article Massey, Caleb P. ; Dryepondt, Sebastien N. ; Edmondson, Philip D. ; ... - Acta Materialia

A major challenge in the design of oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) FeCrAl alloys is the optimization of the fine-scale particle size distribution that provides both beneficial mechanical properties and irradiation resistance. To address this obstacle, the nucleation, growth, and coarsening of the fine-scale (Y,Al,O) nanoprecipitates within an ODS FeCrAl powder was studied using atom probe tomography (APT) and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). Mechanically alloyed Fe10Cr-6.1Al-0.3Zr + Y₂O₃ wt.% (CrAZY) powders were heated in-situ from 20 to 1000 °C to capture the nucleation and growth of the nanoprecipitates using SANS. Furthermore, CrAZY powders were annealed at 1000 °C, 1050 °C, andmore »« less

Toughness and sulfide stress cracking resistance of 13Cr stainless steel OCTG manufactured by ausforming process

Book Miyata, Yukio ; Yamane, Yasuyoshi ; Tamaki, Katsuomi

An ausformed and tempered 13Cr martensitic stainless steel newly developed for OCTG gives a better SSC resistance and a higher low temperature toughness than the conventional, quenched and tempered 13Cr steel. The value of Sc obtained by the NACE three point bent beam test for the ausformed and tempered 13Cr steel with the yield strength of 640MPa reaches 10.0 ({times}10ksi) as a result of carbide spheroidization during ausforming, which is compared with 8.0 ({times}10ksi) for the conventional 13Cr steel with the same strength. This treatment also gives a higher low temperature toughness of 150J in Charpy absorbed energy at 0more »« less
