Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an austenitic stainless steel excellent in intergranular corrosion resistance and stress corrosion cracking resistance even under severe intergranular corrosion environments such as a corrosion environment for a boiling heat transfer surface in a high-concentration nitric acid solution containing highly oxidizing metal ions and an environment in high-temperature high-pressure water under neutron irradiation, and relates to a method for producing an austenitic stainless steel material excellent in intergranular corrosion resistance and stress corrosion cracking resistance even under the severe intergranular corrosion environments.
  • austenitic stainless steels generally show corrosion resistance even in environments containing strong oxidizing acids such as nitric acid by forming a passive film on the surface.
  • the austenitic stainless steels have been used, for example: as a structural material in nitric acid production plants; and as a material for dissolvers for dissolving the spent nuclear fuels with high-concentration nitric acid and acid recovery evaporators for recovery of nitric acid by distillation of the solution in the dissolver in plants for reprocessing spent nuclear fuels.
  • the austenitic stainless steels are also used as a material for light water reactor cores under the environment in high-temperature high-pressure water under neutron irradiation.
  • an austenitic stainless steel material is used as a material for the dissolver or the acid recovery evaporator in plants for reprocessing spent nuclear fuels
  • metal ions such as cerium ion (Ce 4+ ), ruthenium ion (Ru 3+ ) and chromium ion (Cr 6+ ) are released into the nitric acid from the spent nuclear fuels and thus, the nitric acid solution becomes more oxidative than that in the nitric acid production plant. For that reason, the austenitic stainless steel is more susceptible to corrosion accompanied by intergranular corrosion.
  • the following measures are taken, for use of an austenitic stainless steel material under environments of high-temperature nitric acid containing highly oxidizing metal ions: First, the carbon content in the austenitic stainless steel is reduced as much as possible, for prevention of generation of Cr-depletion layer, which is the cause of intergranular corrosion. Nb is added as needed in small amount to the austenitic stainless steel. In addition, the austenitic stainless steel material is subjected to solution treatment.
  • Patent Document 1 disclosed an austenitic stainless steel containing C at 0.005 wt% or less, Si at 0.4 wt% or less, Mn at 0.1 to 12 wt%, P at 0.005 wt% or less, Ni at 7 to 28 wt%, Cr at 15 to 30 wt%, N at 0.06 to 0.30 wt% and the balance of essentially Fe.
  • the intergranular corrosion resistance of the austenitic stainless steel is improved, by suppressing aggregation of P in grain boundaries, while the P content in the austenitic stainless steel is restricted.
  • Patent Document 3 discloses an austenitic stainless steel containing C at 0.02 wt% or less, Si at 0.5 wt% or less, Mn at 0.5 wt% or less, P at 0.03 wt% or less, S at 0.002 wt% or less, Ni at 10 to 16 wt%, Cr at 16 to 20 wt%, Mo at 2.0 to 3.0 wt%, N at 0.06 to 0.15 wt% and the balance of essentially Fe.
  • Patent Document 4 discloses a method of producing an austenitic stainless steel resistant to corrosion by high-temperature nitric acid containing oxidizing metal ions. Specifically, the stainless steel is heat-treated at a temperature in the range of 650 to 950°C for 1 minute or more. Then, if the heat-treatment temperature is lower than the range of 650 to 850°C, the stainless steel is cooled to ordinary temperature by rapid or natural cooling. Alternatively if the heat-treatment temperature is higher than the range of 850 to 950°C, the stainless steel is cooled to ordinary temperature by rapid cooling. The austenitic stainless steel prepared in this way shows favorable resistance to corrosion by high-temperature nitric acid.
  • Patent Document 5 disclosed a method of producing an austenitic stainless steel containing B at 30 wt ppm or less and satisfying, when the diameter of the austenitic grains is designated by d, the following formula: B (wt ppm) ⁇ d ( ⁇ m) ⁇ 700.
  • the austenitic stainless steel when subjected to solution treatment, as heated at a particular temperature, which is a function of B (wt ppm) ⁇ d ( ⁇ m), or higher, shows excellent intergranular corrosion resistance and intergranular stress corrosion cracking resistance.
  • Patent Document 7 discloses a method of producing an austenitic stainless steel by forming clean grain boundaries. Specifically, the austenitic stainless steel is cold worked to a working ratio of 40% or more. Then, the stainless steel obtained after cold working is kept at a temperature that is lower than the recrystallization temperature and allows carbide precipitation, for recrystallization in a temperature range prohibiting segregation of P and other elements in grain boundaries. After the treatment, the austenitic stainless steel shows favorable corrosion resistance even corrosive environment of nitric acid solution containing oxidants.
  • the austenitic stainless steel material when used in a light water reactor core under an environment in high-temperature high-pressure water exposed to neutron irradiation, it becomes more susceptible to intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) by long-term irradiation.
  • IGSCC intergranular stress corrosion cracking
  • a solution-treated austenitic stainless steel in solid-solution state shows resistance to intergranular stress corrosion cracking outside the reactor core where no neutron is irradiated, but such resistance is lost when it is exposed to high level of irradiation, in particular to fluence equivalent to or more than about 1.0 ⁇ 10 21 n/cm 2 or more in the reactor core.
  • Such cracking which is also called irradiation-assisted stress corrosion cracking (IASCC) is a concern recently in old light water reactors.
  • Patent Documents 8 and 9 disclose methods of adjusting the elements constituting the austenitic stainless steel.
  • Patent Document 10 discloses a steel that is lower in Cr deficiency in grain boundaries and has dispersed Cr-depletion regions, which is prepared by reducing the amount of carbide precipitation per unit grain boundary by means of heating a Ni-Cr austenitic stainless steel that have a C content restricted to 0.03 wt% or less and a content of N, which is higher in solid solution-forming efficiency, adjusted to 0.15 wt% or less in its chemical composition for prevention of precipitation of carbides, a cause of intergranular stress corrosion cracking, in grain boundaries in a temperature range of 1100 to 1300°C, and a preparative method thereof.
  • Patent Document 11 discloses a high-Ni-content austenitic steel excellent in neutron deterioration resistance prepared by subjecting an austenitic stainless steel in the chemical composition containing C at 0.005 to 0.08 wt% or less, Mn at 0.3 wt% or less, Si+P+S at 0.2 wt% or less, Ni at 25 to 40 wt%, Cr at 25 to 40 wt%, Mo+W at 5.0 wt% or less, Nb+Ta at 0.3 wt% or less, Ti at 0.3 wt% or less, B at 0.001 wt% or less and others, to solution treatment in a temperature range of 1000 to 1150°C, cold working to its ratio of 30%, and heat treatment in a temperature range of 600 to 750°C for 100 hours.
  • Patent Document 12 discloses a high-alloy austenitic stainless steel containing C at 0.05 wt% or less, Si at 1.0 to 4.0 wt%, Mn at 0.3 wt% or less, Ni at 6 to 22 wt%, Cr at 18 to 23 wt%, Cu at 1 to 3 wt%, Mo at 0.3 to 2.0 wt%, N at 0.05 wt% or less, S at 0.004 wt% or less, a small amount of B added at 0.0005 to 0.005 wt%, one or both of Ca and Mg added in an amount of: [S] ⁇ [Mg]+1/2 and [Ca] ⁇ 0.007, and the balance of essentially Fe. It is disclosed that the austenitic stainless steel is improved significantly in processing efficiency without deterioration in its favorable corrosion resistance.
  • an austenitic stainless steel is used in an acid recovery evaporator by thermosiphon process, in which nitric acid is recovered by distillation of a nitric acid solution in heat-transfer pipes by application of heat from outside, generation of highly oxidizing ions associated with distillation of nitric acid and thermal decomposition and solubilization by reductive reaction occur at the same time.
  • the corrosion environment to the austenitic stainless steel is in a boiling-inducing heat transfer surface corrosion. It is a severe environment in which the corrosion rate is higher than that by immersion corrosion at the same metal surface temperature and the corrosion rate increases gradually over time. For that reason, even if the austenitic stainless steel materials described in Patent Documents 1 to 7 or the preparation methods thereof are used, there still remains a possibility of severe intergranular corrosion.
  • Patent Document 1 discloses that it is possible to suppress formation of MnS and thus generation of the tunnel-like corrosion caused by MnS that is extending in the rolling direction by restricting the P content, and Patent Documents 2 and 3, by adding Ca and Ce that have strong binding force to S.
  • Patent Documents 4 and 5 only consider economy, and the stainless steels cannot be considered to be resistance to nitric acid corrosion consistently.
  • Patent Document 6 discloses an austenitic stainless steel containing B at 5 wt ppm or less and one or more elements selected from Ti, Nb, V, Hf and Ta in a total amount of 1.0 wt% or less.
  • the test in Patent Document 6 was carried out under a mild corrosive condition of immersion only in boiling 65% nitric acid for 48 hours.
  • the test is an evaluation test simulating the corrosion environment containing highly oxidizing metal ions that is used in reprocessing plants for spent nuclear fuels, and is not suited for evaluation of advantages and disadvantages in corrosion resistance of stainless steels.
  • Patent Document 7 discloses a thermomechanical treatment of cold working a steel material to a working ratio of 40% or more, recrystallizing it by keeping it at a temperature in the temperature range lower than the recrystallization temperature but allowing precipitation of carbides and prohibiting segregation for example of P in grain boundaries, but the C content in the steel was not specified sufficient.
  • Cr based carbides a possible cause of intergranular corrosion, are dispersed uniformly, but the Cr-depletion layers formed around the Cr based carbides precipitating in great amounts lead to acceleration of corrosion.
  • the heat treatment is not effective at all for removal of the impurity elements, such as P, S, N and O, segregating in grain boundaries.
  • the amounts of the impurity elements, such as P, segregating in grain boundaries are not described sufficiently, and no measure is taken for their removal. Accordingly, the method unlikely gives desired corrosion resistance.
  • Patent Document 11 specifies that the contents of elements P, S, Si, Nb, Ta, Ti and B are preferably lower, and the contents of Nb, Ta and Ti are specifications when used as a deoxidizing agent, and thus, the contents are not adjusted intentionally for improvement in stress corrosion cracking resistance.
  • Mn and B contents the B content is specified as 0.001 wt% or less, the lowest value practically possible by the steel making technologies at the time of invention, but the lowest value of the B content found in Examples is 0.0003 wt%.
  • the influence exerted by a B content of less than 0.0003 wt% on stress corrosion cracking resistance is unknown. Because the C content, which is the most important constituent component leading to deterioration in stress corrosion cracking resistance, is not reduced sufficient, it is not always possible to obtain favorable stress corrosion cracking resistance.
  • the lower limit value of the B content is restricted to 0.0005 wt% for improvement in hot processing efficiency and the higher limit value to 0.005 wt% for prevention of deterioration in intergranular corrosion resistance, but it is obvious that the limitation above is not sufficiently effective in improving the corrosion resistance.
  • Patent Document 13 The method of preparing a single crystal described in Patent Document 13 imposes restriction on casting condition, in particular on withdrawing velocity, which makes industrial application thereof, in particular application to large-sized materials, difficult.
  • Patent Document 14 discloses that stainless steel production methods include deformation annealing method, Tammann method, Bridgemann method, floating zone melting method, unidirectional solidification method, and continuous casting method and use of a unidirectional solidification method or a continuous casting method is preferable for production of relatively large-sized steel.
  • the patent document does not specify typical manufacturing conditions, and it is doubtful that a single-crystalline metal structure having subcrystal grains can be obtained.
  • the content of the steel components, in particular Ni is not sufficient for prevention of swelling under the neutron irradiation environment, and it is unlikely that desired irradiation resistance is obtained.
  • the present invention was made to solve the problems above. It is an object of the invention to provide an austenitic stainless steel excellent in intergranular corrosion resistance and stress corrosion cracking resistance even under two environments: one environment is a corrosion environment for a boiling heat transfer surface in a high-concentration nitric acid solution containing highly oxidizing metal ions; and another environment is an environment in high-temperature high-pressure water exposed to neutron irradiation. It is another object of the invention to provide a method for producing an austenitic stainless steel material excellent in intergranular corrosion resistance and stress corrosion cracking resistance even under the abovementioned two environments.
  • an austenitic stainless steel excellent in intergranular corrosion resistance and stress corrosion cracking resistance comprises: C: 0.005 wt% or less; Si: 0.5 wt% or less; Mn: 0.5 wt% or less; P: 0.005 wt% or less; S: 0.005 wt% or less; Ni: 15.0 to 40.0 wt%, Cr: 20.0 to 30.0 wt%, N: 0.01 wt% or less; O: 0.01 wt% or less; and the balance of Fe and inevitable impurities, wherein the content of B included in the inevitable impurities is 3 wt ppm or less.
  • the Cr content in steel is 20 wt% or more, the Cr content remains at about 12 wt%, which is needed for generation of a passive film, even after generation of the depletion layer by carbide precipitation.
  • Patent Document 7 teaches that, in steels at conventional impurity level, a B content of more than 5 wt ppm shows at least an adverse effect leading to deterioration in intergranular corrosion resistance, and a B content of more than 10 wt ppm, to particularly drastic deterioration.
  • the detection limit in conventional chemical analysis was about 2 wt ppm, but it is now possible to analyze B content in the order of wt ppm or less and to elucidate the relationship between a trace content of B and intergranular corrosion or stress corrosion cracking, by GD-MS analysis.
  • Contamination at about 2 to 5 wt ppm from raw materials such as alloy irons and scraps was inevitable in ingots of normal austenitic stainless steels, but it became possible to select a raw material lower in B content by progress of analysis technology and additionally to produce an ingot of low austenitic stainless steel lower in B content by progress of the steel-making technology such as oxidizing refining.
  • the precipitation reaction above may possibly proceed insufficiently from the point of reaction rate in a material having a chemical composition lower in the amount of reactive impurity elements such as C, P, S, N and O, as in the present invention, it is also effective to cold work the material to a working ratio of 40% or more and less than 75%, apply deposit precipitation treatment under strain aging on it by heating and holding it in a temperature range of 500 to 650°C for 30 minutes or more, and then, heat and hold it in a temperature range of 750°C or higher for 10 minutes or more.
  • Boron is the factor most important in the configuration of the present invention. It is fundamentally an impurity element that segregates in grain boundaries and causes deterioration in intergranular corrosion resistance and stress corrosion cracking resistance, and thus, the content thereof is preferably lower as much as possible. It was not possible to determine a B content of 0.0003 wt% or less by conventional analytical methods. However, the inventors have identified the relationship between the trace concentration of B and the corrosion resistance by using recent analytical methods and, as a result, found that it was possible to prevent the intergranular corrosion and the stress corrosion cracking completely by reducing the concentration thereof to 0.0003 wt% or less. Thus, the B content is 3 wt ppm (0.0003 wt%) or less from the viewpoint above. It is more preferably 1.5 wt ppm or less.
  • Titanium An amount stoichiometrically equivalent to or more than the total content of C, P, S, N and O. Titanium is a factor important in the configuration of the present invention and is added for complete removal of the impurity elements such as C, P, S, N and O, causes of intergranular corrosion, by conversion to Ti based carbides, nitrides and other compounds such as TiC, TiN, FeTiP, TiS and TiO 2 .
  • the contents of these impurity elements are already at en extremely lowered level in the steel ingot-forming phase.
  • studies by the inventors showed that trace amounts of impurity elements not removed by electrobeam melting could exert adverse effects on intergranular corrosion.
  • An electrobeam-melting method is employed in the steel ingot production process in the present embodiment.
  • the electrobeam-melting methods are basically grouped into drip melting method and cold-hearth melting method.
  • the drip melting method is a method of irradiating the edge of a raw material electrode with electron beam and spraying the generated droplets directly onto a water-cooled cylindrical mold in layer.
  • the cold-hearth melting method is a method of collecting the droplets generated on the edge of a raw material once in a water-cooled shallow copper container called cold hearth and depositing the molten metal on a base plate called starting block in layer, by pouring the molten metal overflowing therefrom onto a water-cooled cylindrical mold. Any one of the melting methods may be used in the present embodiment.
  • the precipitation treatment may be carried out for efficient and uniform dispersion of the carbides after cold working and before recrystallization treatment. Theoretically, it is desired then to heat the material at a constant temperature in the range of 500°C or higher for 30 minutes or more. On the other hand, high temperature shortens the period needed for carbide precipitation, but excessively high temperature leads to recovery and recrystallization before carbide precipitation. It prohibits precipitation at the dislocation sites once introduced and uniform dispersion of the carbides, because of preferential precipitation in grain boundaries, and thus leads to further growth of the grains. It consequently prohibits superior intergranular corrosion resistance and stress corrosion cracking resistance. From the viewpoints above, the carbide precipitation treatment is preferably carried out, as the stainless steel is heated consistently at a temperature in the range of 500 to 650°C for 30 minutes or more.
  • the sample of steel numbers R and S represent samples of Comparative Example, and contain Si at more than 0.5 wt% or Mn at more than 0.5 wt%.
  • Table 2 shows that the samples of steel numbers A to D and steel numbers K to L have intergranular corrosion resistance and stress corrosion cracking resistance more favorable than those of the samples of steel numbers E to J and steel numbers M to S.
