Description

Fe23Zr6And Fe2M-Laves phase co-reinforced FeCrAl stainless steel and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of heat-resistant stainless steel, in particular to Fe23Zr6And Fe2An M-Laves phase co-reinforced FeCrAl stainless steel and a preparation method thereof.
Background
For a long time, the Zr alloy has good corrosion resistance, excellent neutron irradiation resistance, structural integrity and the like under the conventional operating conditions of the light water reactor (350-400 ℃/15MPa of the second generation light water reactor), so that the Zr alloy occupies the monopoly of the cladding material of the light water reactor for a long time. However, 2011 occurrence of nuclear accident in fukushima japan exposed the existing Zr-UO2The fuel system has the defect of poor capability of resisting serious accidents, and the accidents are mainly caused by that the temperature of a reactor core is rapidly increased to 1000-1200 ℃ due to the interruption of cooling water outside the reactor caused by the earthquake, and Zr + H is generated in the temperature range2O→ZrO+H2The reaction up to ↓ and hydrogen implosion occur finally, resulting in the leakage of radioactive substances. Therefore, it is urgently needed to develop a fuel cladding material (namely, ATF cladding material) with accident-resistant and fault-tolerant capabilities to replace the active Zr alloy so as to improve the safety performance of the reactor, and the ATF cladding material is required to meet the performance requirements of the reactor under the conventional operating conditions, and simultaneously have excellent high-temperature steam oxidation resistance and good high-temperature mechanical properties at 1000-1200 ℃.
The FeCrAl ferritic stainless steel has the advantages of excellent high-temperature steam oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, neutron irradiation resistance and the like, and is the best candidate material for the pressurized water reactor ATF cladding. A great deal of research has been done at home and abroad on the application of FeCrAl series alloy in ATF cladding materials. The research result of national laboratory of Oak Ridge (ORNL) in the United states shows that Fe- (13-15) CrThe (4-5) Al (wt.%) ternary base alloy has excellent high-temperature steam oxidation resistance at an accident temperature of 1200 ℃ and has good neutron irradiation resistance under a normal service condition of 400 ℃. However, the alloy is a single ferrite matrix, and no second phase is precipitated, so that the crystal grains grow rapidly at a high temperature of more than 700 ℃, and the mechanical property of the alloy is seriously reduced. ORNL further investigated carbides (M) in order to improve the high temperature mechanical properties of FeCrAl alloys23C6And M7C3) And intermetallic compound (Fe)2M-Laves phase,hp12-MgZn2Type) precipitation strengthened FeCrAl alloys. The results show that after Mo/Nb co-alloying, the Mo/Nb is due to Fe2The precipitation of the (Mo, Nb) -Laves phase improves the high-temperature structure stability of the alloy obviously, obvious recovery recrystallization does not occur after 800 ℃/24h aging, and the carbide has no obvious effect on the improvement of the structure stability.
In China, a FeCrAl alloy with Mo, Nb, Ta, Ce, C, N and O as a component disclosed in the patent application with the publication number CN 106995902A, a FeCrAl alloy with Mo, Nb, Zr, Si, Mn, La, Ce and Y as a component disclosed in the patent application with the publication number CN 106987780A, a FeCrAl alloy with Mo, Nb, W, V, Si, Ga, Ce, C, N and O as a component disclosed in the patent application with the publication number CN107058872A and the like belong to the FeCrAl alloy consisting of Fe, Nb, W, V, Si, Ga, Ce, C, N and O and the like2The M-Laves phase reinforced FeCrAl alloy has high-temperature strength and structural stability at 800 ℃, and has excellent high-temperature oxidation resistance at 1000 ℃ under water vapor. The applicant finds that the series of alloys prepared by adopting the components and the technology really disperse and precipitate a large amount of Fe2The M-Laves phase can effectively pin dislocation motion at the temperature of below 1000 ℃ and block grain boundary migration at high temperature, thereby inhibiting grain growth and improving the stability of alloy high-temperature structure; however, when the temperature exceeds 1100 ℃, the Laves phase in the matrix is largely dissolved and is almost completely dissolved at 1200 ℃, and ferrite grains grow rapidly and the alloy is seriously embrittled. For the ATF cladding material, the temperature of the reactor core can be rapidly raised to be more than 1100 ℃ when a loss of coolant accident happens. Therefore, there is a need to develop a composition with improved thermal stabilityHigh intermetallic strengthened FeCrAl alloys are used as candidate ATF cladding materials.

Detailed Description
The present invention is further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and the detailed description, and it should be noted that, in the case of no conflict, any combination between the embodiments or technical features described below may form a new embodiment.
Fe23Zr6And Fe2The M-Laves phase co-reinforced FeCrAl stainless steel comprises the following components in percentage by mass: 13.0-15.0% of Cr, 4.0-5.0% of Al, 1.5-3.0% of Mo, 0.5-1.5% of Nb, 0-1.0% of Ta, 0.4-1.0% of Zr, and the balance of Fe and impurities.
As a further preferred embodiment, Fe23Zr6And Fe2The M-Laves phase co-reinforced FeCrAl stainless steel comprises the following components in percentage by mass: 13.0-15.0% of Cr, 4.0-5.0% of Al, 1.5-3.0% of Mo, 0.5-1.5% of Nb, 0-1.0% of Ta, 0.45-1.0% of Zr, and the balance of Fe and impurities.
The existing Fe- (13-15) Cr- (4-5) Al (wt.%) ternary alloy has excellent corrosion resistance, high-temperature steam oxidation resistance and neutron irradiation resistance, but the high-temperature mechanical property of the ternary alloy is insufficient at the temperature of over 800 ℃ due to no second phase precipitation, after a certain amount of Mo, Nb and other trace alloying elements are added to form a Laves phase, the use temperature of the ternary alloy is expected to reach 800-1000 ℃, meanwhile, the precipitation of the Laves phase does not consume Al and Cr in a matrix, and the high-temperature steam oxidation resistance and the corrosion resistance of the ternary alloy can be ensured. However, the Laves phase dissolves rapidly into the matrix above 1100 ℃, resulting in severe degradation of the mechanical properties of the alloy. Therefore, an intermetallic compound with higher thermal stability needs to be introduced into the FeCrAl alloy to improve the structural stability and the mechanical property of the alloy under accident conditions (1000-1200 ℃).
Through changing the components and the process of FeCrAl alloy, the applicant of the invention finds that Fe can be obtained by combining proper process when the Zr content in the alloy is more than 0.4 wt.% in cooperation with other alloy elements2Nb、Fe2Zr-Laves phase and Fe23Zr6Co-strengthening FeCrAl alloy with Fe23Zr6It has never been reported in FeCrAl alloy that the alloy still exists in a matrix after heat treatment at 1200 ℃/1h, and the coarsening of crystal grains is effectively inhibited. Thus, Fe of the present invention23Zr6And Fe2The M-Laves phase co-reinforced FeCrAl stainless steel is expected to become a novel ATF cladding material.
In the FeCrAl alloy of the invention:
1) the element Cr is a main element for providing corrosion resistance, and the Tammann law indicates that when Cr is added into Fe to form a solid solution, the electrode potential of the Cr changes abruptly (n/8 law) along with the increase of Cr content, namely the atomic percent (at.%) of Cr reaches 12.5 percent and 25%. multidot.; however, since the sigma- (FeCr) and alpha' -Cr phases are easily induced by too high Cr content to deteriorate the mechanical properties of the alloy, the Cr content in the present invention is 13.0 to 15.0 wt.% in view of the corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of the alloy.
2) The element Al is the main element for ensuring the excellent high-temperature steam oxidation resistance of the alloy, because Al can form compact and continuous Al on the surface of the alloy2O3The higher the Al content, the better the oxidation resistance of the alloy, but too high Al content can seriously degrade the processability of FeCrAl alloy. Therefore, the Al content in the present invention is 3.0 to 5.0 wt.%.
3) The element Mo can improve the high-temperature strength of the material by solid-solution strengthening and also can improve the pitting corrosion resistance of the alloy, but Mo is also an element which promotes the precipitation of the sigma phase. Therefore, in the present invention, the Mo content is set to 1.5 to 3.0 wt.%.
4) The elements Nb and Ta are both Fe2An M-Laves phase forming element, which may be present below 1100 ℃,especially Fe2A Ta-Laves phase; however, too high Nb and Ta contents promote a large amount of Laves phase to precipitate and aggregate, which brings inconvenience to alloy processing. Therefore, in the present invention, the contents of Nb and Ta are set to 0.5 to 1.5 wt.% and 0 to 1.0 wt.%, respectively.
5) The element Zr is not only a Laves phase forming element, but also Fe23Z6Forming elements, the applicant's findings indicate that only Fe is formed in FeCrAl alloys when the Zr content is below 0.3 wt.%2Nb、Fe2The Laves phase in the form of Zr and the like can precipitate Fe when the Zr content is higher than 0.4 wt%23Z6And (4) phase(s). Therefore, in the invention, the Zr content is set to be 0.4-1.0 wt.%, which is beneficial to Fe23Z6And (4) separating out a phase.
Fe23Zr6And Fe2The preparation method of the M-Laves phase co-reinforced FeCrAl stainless steel comprises the following steps:
s1, smelting and casting: proportioning according to the composition of FeCrAl stainless steel, smelting and casting to form an alloy ingot;
s2, homogenizing: preserving the heat of the alloy ingot obtained in the step S1 at 1150-1200 ℃ for 0.5-2 h, taking out, and air-cooling to room temperature;
s3, hot forging: descaling the alloy ingot obtained in S2, and coating a layer of Y2O3Then placing the alloy bar into a muffle furnace, heating to 1150-1200 ℃, preserving heat for 10-30 min, taking out, and performing multi-pass hot forging to obtain an alloy bar; the initial forging temperature of the multi-pass hot forging is more than or equal to 1050 ℃, the final forging temperature is more than or equal to 850 ℃, and the total forging amount is 40-50%;
s4, hot rolling: descaling the alloy bar obtained in S3, and coating a layer of Y2O3Then placing the alloy plate in a muffle furnace, heating to 750-850 ℃, preserving heat for 5-15 min, taking out and carrying out multi-pass hot rolling to obtain an alloy plate; when multi-pass hot rolling is carried out, the single-pass rolling reduction is more than or equal to 5 percent, and the total rolling reduction is more than or equal to 60 percent;
s5, aging treatment: and (3) heating the muffle furnace to 800 ℃ of 700-.
