Centrifugal cast HP40Nb alloys are commonly used as ethylene pyrolysis and reformer furnace tube materials. The actual wall temperature can usually reach 1423 K. The technical specifications require that the rupture life shall be at least 120 h under test condition of 1373 K at 17 MPa. The effects of amounts of Lead on the creep and stress rupture performance of the centrifugal cast HP40Nb alloy have been investigated at the temperature of 1373 K and the constant stress of 17 MPa. In this paper, HP40Nb alloy tubes with different contents of Lead element by centrifugal casting were selected, by high temperature stress rupture test and microscopic observation of creep damage, relationship between the content of Lead and high temperature stress rupture lives was given, as well as the threshold value of Lead element. It could provide the basis for ethylene pyrolysis furnace tubes manufacturers and design specifications.

The stress rupture life of DZ125 nickel-based superalloy that was prepared by directional solidification process under the temperature gradient of 500 K/cm has been studied at 900°C and 235MPa. The results showed that with the increase of directional solidification rate from 50 μm/s to 800 μm/s, the primary dendrite arm spacing reduced from 94 μm to 35.8 μm and γ' precipitates reduced and more uniformed in size. The high temperature stress rupture life of as-cast sample increased firstly and then decreased and reached its maximum at the solidification rate of 500 μm/s. The dislocation configuration of sample with refine dendritic structure after stress rupture was investigated and discovered that the dislocations in different parts of sample had different morphology and density, which indicated that the deformation of as-cast samples were uneven during high temperature stress rupture. A lot of dislocations intertwined around carbides and at the interface of γ/γ', and the dislocation networks were destroyed and the dislocations entered γ' precipitate by the way of cutting.

The effect of the crystal orientation on the stress rupture behavior of the Ni 3 Al -base Single Crystal alloy IC6SX under the test condition of 1100°C/120Mpa has been studied. The results showed that the stress rupture lives of the specimens with [001], [011] and [111] crystal orientations were 205.45h, 268.6h and 485h, respectively, i.e., the specimen with [111] crystal orientation had the longest stress rupture life. The results of the tests also showed the significant different of high temperature stress rupture elongation and area reduction for different crystal orientation specimens, i.e., the ruptured elongations for the specimens with [001], [011] and [111] crystal orientations were 61.9%, 22.9% and 28.8%, and the values of area reduction for the specimens with [001], [011]and [111] crystal orientations were 11.7%, 12.2%and 7.3% respectively.
