Abstract

The tensile and creep properties of two oxide dispersion-strengthened (ODS) steels with nominal compositions of Fe–12Cr–0.25Y 2O 3 (designated 12Y1) and Fe–12Cr–2.5W–0.4Ti–0.25Y 2O 3 (12YWT) were investigated. Optical microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and atom probe field ion microscopy studies indicated that the 12YWT contained a high density of extremely fine Y–Ti–O clusters, compared to the much larger oxide particles in the 12Y1. The fine dispersion of particles gave the 12YWT better tensile and creep properties compared to commercial ODS alloys and ferritic/martensitic steels that would be replaced by the new ODS steel.
