Abstract
Crack growth behaviour of additively manufactured (AM) Alloy 800H were studied under cyclic and static load in high-temperature water, focusing on heat treatment effects. Under cyclic loading, heat treatment gently affected corrosion fatigue. The growth rate is comparable to wrought 800H. As the load cycle frequency reduced to below 0.001 Hz, AM 800H exhibited inconsistent stress corrosion cracking response as compared to wrought 800H. Depending on heat treatment, inhomogeneous crack propagation and localized pinning were observed in stress-relieved and recrystallized AM 800H, attributed to carbides, microstructural inhomogeneity, and twin boundaries. Grain boundary sensitization at ˜10 wt% Cr caused fast crack growth.
