AbstractThis is a study of microalloyed steels for power plants and reactors. Components operate at coal dust fire temperature or thermal states of reactors, prone to creep during its service. This is to assess remaining life after passage of valuable life by variation in microstructure, e.g. cavity formation. Precipitation at the sub-grain boundaries and grain interior has increased high temperature strength. Coarsening of these appears at the end of life. Variation of heat treatment like spheroidising in place of solutionizing has been responsive to deteriorate performance. Dislocation interplay with precipitate has been acceptable while interaction among dislocations to forest dislocation has been unacceptable. Dislocation assisted nucleation of precipitates of fine size has been found to strengthen steel by thermo-mechanical control process with in greater heating temperature and lower finish rolling temperature. High temperature performance of materials has been assessed by creep, accelerated creep, creep-fatigue and fatigue performances. Increasing temperature for increasing efficiency has correlated the phase transformation of steel. Fatigue performances have been included in creep properties of materials when intermittent shut down–shut up schedules are operated, e.g. peaking power plants.

ZrB 2 has some excellent performances, but it is easily oxidized at high temperatures to impact the high-temperature strength, which restricts its applied range. To protect from the oxidization and improve the strength of ZrB 2 at high temperature, the surface of ZrB 2 particles is coated with the Al ( OH )3– Y ( OH )3 shell to synthesize ZrB 2@ Al ( OH )3– Y ( OH )3 core–shell composite particles. Through the thermodynamic and kinetic analyses of the heterogeneous nucleation and homogeneous nucleation, the concentration product of precursor ion ( Y 3+ or Al 3+) and OH - (Qi) must be greater than the solubility product (K sp ), respectively; the conditions of Y 3+ and Al 3+ are reached to produce Al ( OH )3– Y ( OH )3 shell on the ZrB 2 surface between the Y 3+ line and the AlO 2- line. Through TEM and XRD analyses, ZrB 2@ Al ( OH )3– Y ( OH )3 core–shell composite particles are successfully synthesized by the co-precipitation method, the shell layer quality is better at pH = 9, which established the foundation for preparing high-performance YAG / ZrB 2 and Al 2 O 3– YAG / ZrB 2 multiphase ceramic materials.
