Abstract

Fe–Al–O-based materials are currently undergoing a great deal of development because of their many special properties. However, lack of strength at high temperatures, limited ductility at ambient temperatures and corrosion resistance have hindered a wider application of these materials. Recently, a new Fe–Al-based oxide precipitation hardened (OPH) steel was developed by the authors to improve the mechanical properties and oxidation resistance. The new OPH alloys are produced by dissolving a specific amount of oxygen in the matrix during mechanical alloying followed by precipitation of fine dispersion of aluminum or yttrium oxides during hot consolidation. A series of tests was performed to evaluate the thermomechanical properties and corrosion resistance in a 3.5% NaCl solution. The results show improved corrosion resistance, as well as mechanical properties, while the production costs of this material are lower than for traditional materials.

Summary

Introduction

Ecofriendly energy industry, it will be necessary to develop new structural materials with excellent properties, including corrosion resistance and relevant high temperature strength [1,2,3]. Compared with conventional ferritic/martensitic steels, ODS steels have better mechanical properties (tensile and creep strength) and oxidation resistance, thanks to the high number density of nanosized oxide particles with good thermal stability [9,10,11,12]. Such processing could be improved using a controlled thermomechanical treatment, combined with lowering the content of elements such as O, N and C introduced during. This paper concentrates on the mechanical properties of the new OPH steel with various percentages of Al content, its microstructure and corrosion resistance
