The present invention relates to an austenitic heat resistant alloy and a method for producing the same.
[0002]
Conventionally, for thermal power generation boilers, chemical plants and the like which are used in a high temperature environment, 18-8 austenitic stainless steels, such as SUS304H, SUS31611, SUS321H, and SUS347H, have been used as materials for apparatuses.

[0003]
In recent years, however, ultra super critical boilers, where temperature and pressure of steam are increased to enhance efficiency, have been newly installed worldwide. The use conditions of apparatuses in such a high temperature environment have become extremely severe, and therefore, properties which materials being used are required to possess have become strict. Under such circumstances, using 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, which is conventionally used, has become extremely insufficient in terms of not only corrosion resistance but also high temperature strength, particularly creep rupture strength.

SUMMARY OF INVENTION
TECHNICAL PROBLEM
[0006]
Large-sized structural members made of a material for apparatuses, such as thermal power generation boilers or chemical plants, are hot rolled or hot forged and then subjected to final heat treatment without cold rolling before putting into use.
Accordingly, the grain size is relatively large. For this reason, usually, there is a problem that 0.2% proof stress and tensile strength at a normal temperature, which are defined as the specifications of materials, are lower than those of a material obtained by performing final heat treatment after cold rolling.

[0007]
In addition to the above, in a large-sized structural member, a cooling speed at the time of performing heat treatment varies largely from region to region and hence, there is a variation from region to region in the amount of solid solution elements which contribute to strengthening the member as precipitates during use at a high temperature.
There is also a problem that creep rupture strength varies due to such variation.
Accordingly, it is difficult to adopt steel disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 5 to a large-sized structural member.

[0018]
C: 0.02 to 0.12%
C (carbon) forms carbides so that C is an indispensable element for maintaining high temperature tensile strength and creep rupture strength required for an austenitic heat resistant alloy. Accordingly, it is necessary to set a content of C to 0.02%
or more.
However, when the C content exceeds 0.12%, not only undissolved carbides are formed, but also Cr carbides increase and hence, mechanical properties, such as ductility and toughness, and weldability deteriorate. Accordingly, the C content is set to a value ranging from 0.02 to 0.12%. The C content is preferably 0.05% or more and 0.10% or less.

[0019]
Si: 2.0% or less Si (silicon) is contained as a deoxidizing element. Further, Si is an element effective in increasing oxidation resistance, steam oxidation resistance and the like. Si is also an element which facilitates the flow of a casting material. However, when a content of Si exceeds 2.0%, the formation of intermetallic compounds, such as a a phase, is promoted and hence, stability of micro-structure at a high temperature deteriorates, thus lowering toughness and ductility. When the Si content exceeds 2.0%, weldability is also lowered. Accordingly, the Si content is set to 2.0% or less. When importance is placed on structural stability, the Si content is preferably set to 1.0% or less.
When a deoxidizing action is sufficiently ensured by other elements, it is not particularly necessary to set the lower limit of the Si content. However, when importance is placed on a deoxidizing action, oxidation resistance, steam oxidation resistance and the like, the Si content is preferably set to 0.05% or more, and more preferably set to 0.10% or more.

Mn: 3.0% or less Mn (manganese) has a deoxidizing action in the same manner as Si, and also has an action of fixing S, which is inevitably contained in the alloy, as a sulfide, thus improving ductility at a high temperature. However, when a content of Mn exceeds 3.0%, the precipitation of intermetallic compounds, such as a a phase, is promoted and hence, structural stability, and mechanical properties, such as high temperature strength, deteriorate. Accordingly, the Mn content is set to 3.0% or less. The Mn content is preferably 2.0% or less, and more preferably 1.5% or less. It is not necessary to set the lower limit of the Mn content. However, when importance is placed on an action of improving ductility at a high temperature, the Mn content is preferably set to 0.10% or more, and more preferably set to 0.20% or more.

2. Grain size Austenite grain size number at outer surface portion: -2.0 to 4.0 When an austenitic grain size at an outer surface portion is extremely large, 0.2%
proof stress and tensile strength at a normal temperature are lowered. On the other hand, when an austenitic grain size at an outer surface portion is extremely small, it becomes impossible to maintain high creep rupture strength at a high temperature.

4. Amount of Cr which is present as precipitate obtained by extraction residue analysis CrpB/Crps 10.0 (i) where meaning of each symbol in the formula (i) is as follows:
Crpa: amount of Cr which is present at center portion as precipitate obtained by extraction residue analysis Crps: amount of Cr which is present at outer surface portion as precipitate obtained by extraction residue analysis In a production process for an alloy, after heat treatment, which is performed after the hot working, is performed, undissolved Cr precipitations (mainly carbides) are generated at crystal grain boundaries or within grains. Particularly at the center portion of the alloy, a cooling speed is slower than that at the outer surface portion of the alloy and hence, the amount of Cr precipitates tends to increase. Accordingly, when a value of CrpB/Crps exceeds 10.0, it becomes impossible to maintain high creep rupture strength at a high temperature. On the other hand, it is not necessary to set the lower limit value of CrpB/Crps. However, there is a tendency that the amount of precipitates increases more at the center portion than at the outer surface portion and hence, CrpB/Crps is preferably set to 1.0 or more.

An extraction residue analysis is performed by the following procedure. First, test coupons for measuring Cr precipitates are obtained from the center portion and the outer surface portion of the cross section of an alloy specimen, the cross section being perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the alloy specimen. The surface area of each test coupon is obtained and, thereafter, only the base metal of the alloy specimen is completely electrolyzed in a 10% acetylacetone - I% tetramethyl ammonium chloride -methanol solution under an electrolysis condition of 20 mAJcm2. Then, the solution after electrolysis is performed is filtered through a 0.2 tm filter to extract precipitates as a residue. Thereafter, the extracted residue is decomposed with an acid, and is analyzed using an inductively coupled plasma emission spectrophotometer (ICP-AES) to measure a content (mass%) of Cr contained as undissolved Cr precipitate, and a value of CrpB/Crps is obtained based on the measured value.

If there is a large difference in 0.2% proof stress and tensile strength at a normal temperature between the center portion and the outer surface portion of the large-sized structural member, there arises a problem that some regions do not satisfy the specifications.

7. Production method The austenitic heat resistant alloy of the present invention can be produced by performing hot working on an ingot or a cast piece having the above chemical composition. In the above step of performing hot working, processing is performed such that the longitudinal direction of the alloy in the final shape aligns with the longitudinal direction of the ingot or the cast piece forming a starting material. Hot working may be performed only in the longitudinal direction.

First, the alloy on which hot working was performed is heated to a heat-treatment temperature T ( C) ranging from 1100 to 1250 C, and is held for 1000 D/T to (min) within such a range. In this embodiment, symbol "D" denotes the diameter (mm) of the alloy when the alloy has a columnar shape, and "D" denotes a diagonal distance (mm) when the alloy has a quadrangular prism shape, for example. That is, symbol "D"

When the heat-treatment temperature is less than 1100 C, the amount of undissolved chromium carbide or the like increases, thus lowering creep rupture strength.
On the other hand, when the heat-treatment temperature exceeds 1250 C, grain boundaries are dissolved or grains are remarkably coarsened so that ductility is lowered.
Accordingly, it is more desirable to set the heat-treatment temperature to 1150 C or above and 1230 C or below. Further, when the holding time is less than 1000 D/T
(min), undissolved chromium carbide at the center portion increases so that CrpB/Crps falls outside a range defined by the present invention. On the other hand, when the holding time exceeds 1400 D/T (min), grain at the outer surface portion is coarsened so that the austenite grain size number falls outside the range defined by the present invention.

Immediately after the alloy is heated and held, the alloy is cooled with water.
This is because when a cooling speed becomes lower, particularly at the center portion of the alloy, a large amount of undissolved Cr precipitates is generated at crystal grain boundaries or within grains so that there is a possibility that the formula (i) is not satisfied.
