The creep and creep-rupture properties of 13 heats of annealed 2 1/4 Cr-1 Mo steel were determined at 510 and 566°C (950 and 1050°F). The microstructures of all heats were primarily polygonal ferrite (75–80 percent); the balance was mostly bainite with 1–2 percent pearlite and scattered carbides. At each temperature the results indicated considerable data scatter for the high-stress (short rupture life) tests. As the stress was lowered, the creep and stress-rupture properties converged, which resulted in a decrease in the data scatter. Much of the variation and change in the properties could be attributed to the carbide precipitation reactions that occur in the steel.

Abstract AISI No. 664 is a nickel-base high-temperature alloy that can be precipitation hardened because of its contents of aluminum and titanium. Vacuum melting is used in its production to provide excellent quality and reproducability. It is used for applications requiring a good combination of creep and stress-rupture properties up to about 1500 F. Typical applications are gas-turbine components, airframes and fasteners. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, elasticity, and tensile properties as well as creep.

The effect of silicon on diffusion behavior of the carbide forming elements in Ni-Mo-Cr-Fe based corrosion-resistant alloy is studied by diffusion couple experiment. One group of diffusion couples are made of the alloy with a different silicon content, another group of diffusion couples are made of pure nickel and the alloy with different silicon content (0Si, 2Si). Two groups of alloys with same silicon content and different carbon content are also prepared, the microstructure of solution and aging state of these two groups alloys are analyzed, and their stress rupture properties are tested. The effect of silicon on the diffusion of alloy elements and the interaction effect of carbon and silicon on the microstructure and stress rupture properties of the alloy are analyzed. The mechanism of Si on the precipitation behavior of carbide phase in Ni-Mo-Cr-Fe corrosion resistant alloy is discussed. The results show that silicon can promote the diffusion of carbide forming elements and the formation of carbide. The precipitation behavior of the secondary phase is the result of the interaction effect of silicon and carbon, and is related to the thermal history of the alloy. Combined with the characteristic of primary carbides, it is confirmed that the precipitation of M12C type secondary carbide is caused by the relative lack of carbon element and the relative enrichment of carbide forming elements such as molybdenum. The stress rupture properties of two silicon-containing alloys with different carbon contents in solution and aging state are tested. The stress rupture life of low carbon alloy is lower compared with high carbon alloy at solution state, but after aging treatment, the stress rupture life of low carbon alloy is significantly improved, and higher than that of high carbon alloy. The main aim of this research is to reveal the influence mechanism of silicon on carbide phase precipitation of a Ni-Mo-Cr-Fe based corrosion-resistant superalloy, which provides theoretical basis and reference for later alloy design and engineering application.

The influence of three different ageing treatments (R1:1100/2h,air cooling+870/32h,air cooling, R2: 870/32h,air cooling and R3: 1060/2h,air cooling+870/32h,air cooling) on stress rupture properties of Ni3Al-base single-crystal alloy IC21 was investigated. The results indicate that ageing heat treatments have obvious effects on stress rupture properties of IC21 at 850/500Mpa. After R3 ageing treatment, IC21 alloy presents the longest rupture life and the smallest ellipticity and elongation compared to those after the other two ageing treatments. Microstructure examination shows that the mean size of γ precipitate is about 0.44μm after R3 ageing heat treatment (1060/2h, ac + 870/32h, ac). Transmission electron microscope (TEM) study on the rupture samples illustrates that after R1 and R2 ageing heat treatments, the density of stacking faults increases and the length is larger compared to that after R3 heat treatment. Meanwhile the shearings of γ precipitates are more severe. The appropriate γ phase size and γ channel width after R3 treatment promote homogenous deformation by <110>{111} slip in the matrix, and facilitate the formation of finer dislocation networks on the γ/γ interface, which can restrain the shearing of γ phase by dislocations.

The microstructure, tensile and stress rupture properties of K492Malloy have been investigated in the present study. The results revealed that γ matrix, γ′ phase, carbide and eutectic in the interdendritic region within grain interior and along grain boundary were observed after solidification. After heat treatment, γ' precipitates with two obviously distinct size existed in the dendrite core and interdendritic region, respectively. Meanwhile, the chain-like (W, Mo)6C and Cr23C6carbides precipitated along grain boundary. The investigation of mechanical properties suggested that the tensile strength was initially increased but then decreased with increasing the temperature from 25oC to 760oC. The stress rupture life was 68.2h and 35.8h at 760oC / 655MPa and 870oC / 365MP, respectively. The columnar grain and carbide along grain boundary resulted in intergranular brittle fracture in both test conditions. As a result, the elongation under the conditions of 760oC/655MPa and 870oC/365MP was 1.5% and 1.4%, respectively.

Sound billets were produced at BIAM with a twin-scanning spray forming facility. Microstructure and mechanical properties of In718 alloy produced with this technology were examined. Both tensile strength and stress rupture properties are excellent with the rupture life even doubled after received a direct aging heat treatment.

Two directionally solidified (DS) Ni-based cast superalloys without and with 3wt. % Ru were prepared. The effects of Ru addition on the microstructures and stress rupture properties of the heat treated superalloys were investigated. It is shown that the amount of eutectic in 3wt. % Ru alloy was less than that in alloy without Ru. The incipient melting structure was found after quenching followed by 1295°C and 1300°C solid solution treatments in 3wt. % Ru alloy and in the alloy without Ru, respectively. The temperature at which the eutectic pools dissolved completely was higher than the temperature at which incipient melting appears. In order to obtain the better mechanical properties, double aging treatment was carried out for both alloys to optimize the sizes, morphologies and distribution of the γ′ phase. The stress rupture lives of the alloys were 55h and 108h under the condition of 1070°C and 137MPa the alloys without Ru and with 3wt. % Ru respectively. It is suggested that 3wt. % Ru addition can prolong the stress rupture life of the alloy.

The isochronal solution treatment (4h) in the 1080-1190°C range with air cooling are performed to investigate the effects of solution temperature on the microstructure and stress rupture properties of K439 alloy. The detailed as-cast and solution treated microstructures were analyzed through optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The experimental results show that the as-cast alloy exhibited a typical dendritic structure with five phases of γ, γ´, γ/γ´, η and MC. After solution heat treated at 1080°C, although all of the γ´ particles in the dendritic cores were dissolved, there were still some of these precipitates in the interdendritic regions beside η phase. With the solution temperature increasing to 1150°C, all of the γ´ and η solutioned and a uniform microstructure was observed. Furthermore, increasing the temperature to 1210°C, a small amount of incipient melting occurred in the alloy. The stress rupture life of K439 alloy at 760°C/530MPa increased with the rising of solution temperature and reached to the top value under the solution temperature of 1150°C. The optimum solution treatment considered to be 1150 C/4 h followed by air cooling.
