Effect of C and N content on the microstructure and performance of 316H austenitic stainless steel used in sodium-cooled fast reactor heat exchanger
-
摘要: 316H不锈钢是我国四代先进钠冷快堆热交换器主体结构材料，获得C、N等关键微量元素的合理控制限是实现其国产化制造的前提。但是ASTM标准对316H合金中C的要求控制范围较宽，难以兼顾合金的耐晶间腐蚀和焊接性能，尤其对C极易出现偏析的大尺寸管板、法兰等部件。此外，该标准也并未给出N的控制范围。试验研究了C、N含量对合金的晶粒度、室温和580 ℃拉伸性能、室温冲击韧性和耐晶间腐蚀性能的影响。结果表明，C含量在0.04%～0.06%变化时，316H不锈钢晶粒度、拉伸性能、冲击韧性变化并不明显。尽管该范围的C含量合金热轧板材具有良好的耐晶间腐蚀性，但随着C含量的增加，合金腐蚀速率有所提高。N含量在0.05%～0.07%变化时，316H不锈钢晶粒度、拉伸性能、冲击性能变化并不明显，耐晶间腐蚀速率随着N含量的增加有降低的趋势。基于上述结果，综合分析并确定了工程化制造的大尺寸316H不锈钢部件C和N含量的推荐控制限,即C 0.04%～0.05%，N 0.06%～0.07%。Abstract: 316H austenitic stainless steel is used as the main structural material of the Chinese fourth-generation advanced sodium-cooled fast reactor heat exchanger. The premise of realizing domestic production is to obtain the reasonable control limit of the key trace-elements such as C and N. However, the ASTM standard shows a wide range of control of C element in 316H alloy, which makes it difficult to balance the intergranular corrosion resistance and welding performance of the alloy, especially for large-size tube sheet, flange and other parts where C element is prone to segregate. Besides, the ASTM standard doesn’t give the control range of N. In this paper, the influence of the C, N contents on the microstructure and properties, such as the grain size, tensile properties under room temperature or 580 °C, the room-temperature impact toughness and the intergranular corrosion resistance were investigated by the tensile and impact testing machines, combined with other testing methods such as OM and intergranular corrosion performance testing. The findings demonstrate that there are slight changes in grain size, tensile properties, and impact toughness of the alloys with C (0.04%～0.06%) or with N (0.05% to 0.07%). Although the hot-rolled alloy plates with the C contents of 0.04% to 0.06% generally show good intergranular corrosion resistance, the corrosion rate increases with the increasing C content. The rate of the intergranular corrosion resistance tends to decrease with the increase of the N content. Based on the results, the recommended control limits of the C and N content of the engineered 316H stainless steel parts are determined.
