Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、原子力プラント等の高温高圧水環境下において高耐食高強度を要求される部材に用いられる耐熱時効劣化特性に優れたステンレス鋼および当該ステンレス鋼によって構成された構造物に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来の原子力プラントにおいては、各種弁、弁棒、ボルトおよび制御棒駆動系機器等の高耐食及び、高強度を要求される部分に析出硬化型ステンレス鋼あるいはマルテンサイト系ステンレス鋼が使用されている(特許文献1参照)。
【0003】
【特許文献1】
特開平6−346198号公報
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、析出硬化型ステンレス鋼およびマルテンサイト系ステンレス鋼は、高温に長時間加熱されるとスピノーダル分解を起こして靱性及び延性の低下を生じることが研究結果からわかった。スピノーダル分解は、組織の中のマルテンサイト相およびフェライト相が長時間加熱されることによりFe原子とCr原子が周期的に分離する相分離、つまり、Feリッチ相とCrリッチ相に分離する現象である。
【0005】
本発明の目的は、高温高圧水環境で長期間使用した場合においても靱性及び延性の低下の少ないステンレス鋼および当該ステンレス鋼によって構成された構造物を提供することを目的とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記目的を達成するため、請求項1の発明のステンレス鋼は、重量%でCrを12%〜26%、Niを4%〜16%、Cを0.10%以下、Sを0.01%以下、Moを0.1〜4%含有し、残部がFeおよび不可避的不純物からなる構成とする。
【0007】
Crが12%以上になると表面に安定した酸化被膜が形成され、耐食性が非常に良好になる。従って、Cr12%以上と限定する。また、ステンレス鋼の組織を成分により分類したシェフラー線図上でCr12%以上、かつマルテンサイト組織となる範囲を読み取り、Crの上限は26%とする。また、Niの場合、シェフラー線図からマルテンサイト組織を示すのは16%以下である。よって、Niの上限は16%とする。
【0008】
請求項2の発明は、請求項1のステンレス鋼がさらにCuを2〜5重量%含み、450〜650℃の熱処理によりCuが析出されている構成とする。
Cuは析出硬化に寄与する元素であり、2%以下では析出硬化の寄与が小さく、5%以上では析出物が粗大化し、脆化を促進させるので2〜5重量%とする。そして、熱処理が450℃以下では析出元素であるCuが充分析出しないことと合金の靭性を得るための焼戻しが充分されない。また650℃以上ではCu以外の析出物、例えばCr炭化物が析出し、合金の耐食性に悪影響を与える可能性がある。
【0009】
請求項3の発明は、請求項1のステンレス鋼がさらにAlを0.5〜1.5重量%含み、621℃〜843℃の熱処理により金属間化合物NiAlが析出されている構成とする。
【0010】
Alは析出硬化に寄与する元素であり、0.5%以下では析出硬化の寄与が小さく、1.5%以上では析出物が粗大化し、脆化を促進させるので0.5〜1.5%とする。また、γ’相であるNiAlを析出させるために、金属間化合物の時間−温度−析出物の関係図より、熱処理温度の下限を621℃、上限を843℃とする。
【0011】
請求項4の発明は、請求項1のステンレス鋼がさらにNbを0.5〜1.5重量%含み、593℃〜927℃の熱処理により金属間化合物NiNbが析出されている構成とする。
【0012】
Nbは析出硬化に寄与する元素であり、0.5%以下では析出硬化の寄与が小さく、1.5%以上では析出物が粗大化し、脆化を促進させるので0.5〜1.5%とする。また、γ’’相であるNiNbを析出させるために、金属間化合物の時間−温度−析出物の関係図より、熱処理温度の下限を593℃、上限を927℃とする。
【0013】
請求項5の発明は、請求項1のステンレス鋼がさらにTiを0.5〜1.5重量%含み、621℃〜843℃の熱処理により金属間化合物NiTiが析出されている構成とする。
【0014】
Tiは析出硬化に寄与する元素であり、0.5%以下では析出硬化の寄与が小さく、1.5%以上では析出物が粗大化し、脆化を促進させるので0.5〜1.5%とする。また、γ’相であるNiTiを析出させるために、金属間化合物の時間−温度−析出物の関係図より、熱処理温度の下限を621℃、上限を843℃とする。
【0015】
請求項6の発明は構造物であり、請求項1〜請求項5のいずれかに記載のステンレス鋼によって構成され高温高圧水環境で使用される構成とする。
【0016】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の実施の形態について説明する。なお、本実施の形態において成分元素の含有量を示すパーセンテージは全て重量基準のパーセンテージ(wt%)を示す。
【0017】
本発明の第1の実施の形態に係る合金は、Crを12〜26%含有するステンレス鋼を基本とする。そして、原子炉水環境に長期間使用した場合における靭性及び延性の低下を抑制するためにMoを0.1〜4%添加する。
【0018】
MoはCrと共存することにより導電性水中における耐孔食性の向上に寄与する元素である。その効果を発揮させるには0.1%以上の添加が必要である。しかし、その添加量が4%を超えると、材料の脆化の問題が生じるため、添加量の上限を4%とする。
【0019】
Cは強度を向上させる元素であるが、耐食性に悪影響を与える元素でもある。Cは熱処理あるいは溶接熱の影響により粒界にCr炭化物を形成し、それに伴い粒界近傍にCr欠乏層を形成し耐食性を低下させる。そのため、Cは0.10%以下にすることが望ましい。
【0020】
Sは溶解時の脱酸剤として不可避的に混入するMnとともに非金属介在物MnSを生成する元素であり、その含有量の増加に伴い耐食性に悪影響を与える。そのため、S含有量は0.01%以下とする。
【0021】
CやSを多く含むと、MnS等の非金属介在物やCの偏析部が生じる。これにより、合金が高温水中に曝されたとき、これらの部位とその周囲の組織の間に電位差が生じ非金属介在物およびC偏析部の存在する部位が選択的に腐食する。本実施の形態の合金は、このような現象を防止するためにCおよびS含有量を調整する。
【0022】
Niは4〜16%含有することが好ましい。Ni添加により靭性および耐食性が向上する。以上述べた元素以外の成分元素(不純物元素)、例えばSi、Mn、P等は通常のJIS規格(JIS G3214)に規定しているレベルに設定して問題ない。
【0023】
つぎに、本発明の第2の実施の形態を説明する。
この実施の形態に係る合金は、Crを12〜26%、Niを4〜16%、Cを0.10%以下、Sを0.01%以下含み、熱時効に伴うCrリッチ相形成を抑制するためにMoを0.1〜4%添加し、残部がFeおよび不可避的不純物からなる。更に強度を向上させるために、Cuを2〜5%あるいはAlを0.5〜1.5%添加する。あるいはNbを0.5〜1.5%あるいはTiを0.5〜1.5%添加する。
【0024】
以下に、強度向上のため添加する元素の含有量の限定理由について説明する。
Cuは、450〜650℃で熱処理を行うと母材中に析出し、いわゆる析出硬化により強度が上昇する。2%未満では析出硬化の寄与が小さく、5%を越えると脆化が促進するため2〜5%の添加が望ましい。
【0025】
Alは、621〜843℃で熱処理を行うと母材中に金属間化合物NiAlとして析出し、いわゆる析出硬化により強度が上昇する。0.5%未満では析出硬化の寄与が小さく、1.5%を越えると脆化が促進するため0.5〜1.5%の添加が望ましい。
【0026】
Nbは、593〜927℃で熱処理を行うと母材中に金属間化合物NiNbとして析出し、いわゆる析出硬化により強度が上昇する。0.5%未満では析出硬化の寄与が小さく、1.5%を越えると脆化が促進するため0.5〜1.5%の添加が望ましい。
【0027】
Tiは、621〜843℃で熱処理を行うと母材中に金属間化合物NiTiとして析出し、いわゆる析出硬化により強度が上昇する。0.5%未満では析出硬化の寄与が小さく、1.5%を越えると脆化が促進するため0.5〜1.5%の添加が望ましい。
【0028】
つぎに、本発明の第3の実施の形態に係る合金は、Crを12〜14%、Niを6〜10%、Cを0.10%以下、Sを0.01%以下含み、残部がFeおよび不可避的不純物からなる。
【0029】
以下、各成分元素の含有量の限定理由について説明する。
本実施の形態においてCrを12〜14%、Niを6〜10%としたのは、金属組織をフェライト相のないマルテンサイト組織単相にするために決定したものである。フェライト相は、マルテンサイト相に比べCr含有量が高く、スピノーダル分解が生じ易く経年劣化を促進するCrリッチ相を形成しやすいためである。
【0030】
つぎに、本発明の第4の実施の形態に係る合金は、Crを12〜18%、Niを8〜10%、Cを0.10%以下、Sを0.01%以下含み、残部がFeおよび不可避的不純物からなる。
【0031】
以下、各成分元素の含有量の限定理由について説明する。
Crを12〜18%、Niを8〜10%としたのは、金属組織をフェライト相とオーステナイトとの混相組織にするために決定したものである。フェライト相は、マルテンサイト相に比べCr含有量が高く、スピノーダル分解が生じ易く経年劣化を促進するCrリッチ相を形成しやすいためである。

【0035】
開発材Bと従来材EはともにCuを含有しているが、開発材Bに対して1038℃×1時間+593℃×4時間の熱処理を、従来材Eに対して1050℃×1時間+580℃×4時間の熱処理を施したのち400℃で時効を行ない、シャルピー衝撃試験を実施した。その結果を比較すると、開発材Bは衝撃値変化率の低下が従来材Eに比べ長時間側となっており、経年劣化が抑制されているといえる。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a stainless steel having excellent heat aging deterioration characteristics used for members requiring high corrosion resistance and high strength in a high-temperature high-pressure water environment such as a nuclear power plant, and a structure constituted by the stainless steel.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In conventional nuclear power plants, precipitation hardening stainless steel or martensitic stainless steel is used for parts requiring high corrosion resistance and high strength, such as various valves, valve stems, bolts and control rod drive system equipment. (See Patent Document 1).
[0003]
[Patent Document 1]
JP-A-6-346198
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, research results have shown that precipitation-hardened stainless steel and martensitic stainless steel undergo spinodal decomposition when heated to a high temperature for a long time, resulting in a decrease in toughness and ductility. Spinodal decomposition is a phase separation in which Fe and Cr atoms are periodically separated by heating the martensite phase and ferrite phase in the structure for a long time, that is, a phenomenon in which Fe and Cr rich phases are separated. is there.
[0005]
An object of the present invention is to provide a stainless steel and a structure made of the stainless steel, which have a small decrease in toughness and ductility even when used in a high-temperature and high-pressure water environment for a long time.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above object, the stainless steel according to the first aspect of the present invention has a Cr content of 12% to 26%, a Ni content of 4% to 16%, a C content of 0.10% or less, and a S content of 0.01%. Hereinafter, Mo is contained in an amount of 0.1 to 4%, and the balance is made of Fe and inevitable impurities.
[0007]
When the Cr content is 12% or more, a stable oxide film is formed on the surface, and the corrosion resistance becomes very good. Therefore, it is limited to Cr 12% or more. In addition, a range in which Cr is 12% or more and a martensite structure is read on a Schaeffler diagram in which the structure of stainless steel is classified according to components, and the upper limit of Cr is set to 26%. In the case of Ni, the percentage of the martensite structure shown in the Schaeffler diagram is 16% or less. Therefore, the upper limit of Ni is set to 16%.

Cu is an element that contributes to precipitation hardening. If it is 2% or less, the contribution of precipitation hardening is small, and if it is 5% or more, the precipitates become coarse and promote embrittlement. If the heat treatment is performed at 450 ° C. or lower, Cu, which is a precipitation element, is not sufficiently precipitated, and tempering for obtaining the toughness of the alloy is not sufficient. If the temperature is 650 ° C. or higher, precipitates other than Cu, for example, Cr carbides may precipitate, which may adversely affect the corrosion resistance of the alloy.
[0009]
The invention according to claim 3 is configured such that the stainless steel according to claim 1 further contains 0.5 to 1.5% by weight of Al, and the intermetallic compound Ni 3 Al is precipitated by heat treatment at 621 ° C to 843 ° C. .
[0010]
Al is an element that contributes to precipitation hardening. When it is 0.5% or less, the contribution of precipitation hardening is small, and when it is 1.5% or more, the precipitate becomes coarse and promotes embrittlement. And In addition, in order to precipitate Ni 3 Al, which is the γ ′ phase, the lower limit of the heat treatment temperature is set to 621 ° C. and the upper limit is set to 843 ° C. based on the time-temperature-precipitate relation diagram of the intermetallic compound.
[0011]
The invention of claim 4 includes 0.5 to 1.5 wt% stainless steel further Nb of claim 1, the intermetallic compound Ni 3 Nb is configured to be deposited by thermal treatment of 593 ℃ ~927 ℃ .
[0012]
Nb is an element that contributes to precipitation hardening. When it is 0.5% or less, the contribution of precipitation hardening is small, and when it is 1.5% or more, precipitates become coarse and promote embrittlement. And Further, in order to precipitate Ni 3 Nb as a γ ″ phase, the lower limit of the heat treatment temperature is set to 593 ° C. and the upper limit is set to 927 ° C. according to the time-temperature-precipitate relation diagram of the intermetallic compound.

The invention of claim 5 is configured such that the stainless steel of claim 1 further contains 0.5 to 1.5% by weight of Ti, and the intermetallic compound Ni 3 Ti is precipitated by a heat treatment at 621 ° C to 843 ° C. .
[0014]

[0015]
According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a structure which is made of the stainless steel according to any one of the first to fifth aspects and is used in a high-temperature and high-pressure water environment.
[0016]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described. In the present embodiment, all the percentages indicating the contents of the component elements indicate percentages by weight (wt%).
[0017]
The alloy according to the first embodiment of the present invention is based on stainless steel containing 12 to 26% of Cr. Mo is added in an amount of 0.1 to 4% in order to suppress a decrease in toughness and ductility when used for a long time in a reactor water environment.
[0018]
Mo is an element that contributes to improvement of pitting corrosion resistance in conductive water by coexisting with Cr. In order to exert its effect, it is necessary to add 0.1% or more. However, if the added amount exceeds 4%, a problem of embrittlement of the material occurs, so the upper limit of the added amount is 4%.
[0019]
C is an element that improves the strength, but is also an element that adversely affects the corrosion resistance. C forms Cr carbides at the grain boundaries under the influence of heat treatment or welding heat, and accordingly forms a Cr deficient layer near the grain boundaries to lower the corrosion resistance. Therefore, C is desirably 0.10% or less.
[0020]
S is an element that forms non-metallic inclusions MnS together with Mn inevitably mixed as a deoxidizing agent at the time of dissolution, and has an adverse effect on corrosion resistance as its content increases. Therefore, the S content is set to 0.01% or less.
[0021]
When a large amount of C and S is contained, nonmetallic inclusions such as MnS and segregated portions of C are generated. As a result, when the alloy is exposed to high-temperature water, a potential difference is generated between these portions and the surrounding structure, and the portions where the nonmetallic inclusions and the C segregated portions are present are selectively corroded. In the alloy of the present embodiment, the contents of C and S are adjusted to prevent such a phenomenon.
[0022]
It is preferable to contain 4 to 16% of Ni. Ni addition improves toughness and corrosion resistance. Constituent elements (impurity elements) other than the elements described above, for example, Si, Mn, P, etc., can be set to the levels specified in the normal JIS standard (JIS G3214) without any problem.
[0023]
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described.
The alloy according to this embodiment contains 12 to 26% of Cr, 4 to 16% of Ni, 0.10% or less of C, and 0.01% or less of S, and suppresses formation of a Cr-rich phase due to thermal aging. For this purpose, Mo is added in an amount of 0.1 to 4%, and the balance consists of Fe and inevitable impurities. In order to further improve the strength, 2 to 5% of Cu or 0.5 to 1.5% of Al is added. Alternatively, 0.5 to 1.5% of Nb or 0.5 to 1.5% of Ti is added.
[0024]
Hereinafter, the reason for limiting the content of the element added for improving the strength will be described.
When Cu is heat-treated at 450 to 650 ° C., it precipitates in the base material, and its strength increases due to so-called precipitation hardening. If it is less than 2%, the contribution of precipitation hardening is small, and if it exceeds 5%, embrittlement is promoted, so addition of 2 to 5% is desirable.
[0025]
When Al is heat-treated at 621 to 843 ° C., it precipitates as an intermetallic compound Ni 3 Al in the base material, and the strength increases due to so-called precipitation hardening. If it is less than 0.5%, the contribution of precipitation hardening is small, and if it exceeds 1.5%, embrittlement is promoted, so addition of 0.5 to 1.5% is desirable.
[0026]
Nb is precipitated as an intermetallic compound Ni 3 Nb in the base material during the heat treatment is performed at 593-927 ° C., the strength is increased by so-called precipitation hardening. If it is less than 0.5%, the contribution of precipitation hardening is small, and if it exceeds 1.5%, embrittlement is promoted, so addition of 0.5 to 1.5% is desirable.
[0027]
When Ti is heat-treated at 621 to 843 ° C., it precipitates in the base material as an intermetallic compound Ni 3 Ti, and its strength is increased by so-called precipitation hardening. If it is less than 0.5%, the contribution of precipitation hardening is small, and if it exceeds 1.5%, embrittlement is promoted, so addition of 0.5 to 1.5% is desirable.
[0028]
Next, the alloy according to the third embodiment of the present invention contains 12 to 14% of Cr, 6 to 10% of Ni, 0.10% or less of C, and 0.01% or less of S, with the balance being the balance. It consists of Fe and inevitable impurities.
[0029]
Hereinafter, the reasons for limiting the content of each component element will be described.
The reason why the content of Cr is set to 12 to 14% and the content of Ni is set to 6 to 10% in the present embodiment is determined in order to make the metal structure have a single phase of a martensite structure without a ferrite phase. This is because the ferrite phase has a higher Cr content than the martensite phase, easily forms spinodal decomposition, and easily forms a Cr-rich phase that promotes aging.
[0030]
Next, the alloy according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention contains 12 to 18% of Cr, 8 to 10% of Ni, 0.10% or less of C, and 0.01% or less of S, with the balance being the balance. It consists of Fe and inevitable impurities.
[0031]
Hereinafter, the reasons for limiting the content of each component element will be described.
The reason why the content of Cr is set to 12 to 18% and the content of Ni is set to 8 to 10% is determined in order to make the metal structure a mixed phase structure of a ferrite phase and austenite. This is because the ferrite phase has a higher Cr content than the martensite phase, easily forms spinodal decomposition, and easily forms a Cr-rich phase that promotes aging.
[0032]
Next, data on the alloy according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 shows the composition of the alloy, and FIG. 2 shows the impact value change rate with aging at 400 ° C.
[0033]
In these figures, the developed material A is the alloy according to the first embodiment, the developed material B is the alloy according to the second embodiment, and the developed material C is the alloy according to the third embodiment. This is an alloy having a composition corresponding to the fourth embodiment. The conventional material D is SUS431 stainless steel, and the conventional material E is SUS630 stainless steel.
[0034]
A heat treatment of 1020 ° C. × 1 hour + 640 ° C. × 1 hour is performed on the developed material A, and a heat treatment of 1050 ° C. × 1 hour + 700 ° C. × 8 hours is performed on the conventional material D, followed by aging at 400 ° C. A Charpy impact test was performed. As a result, in the developed material A, the decrease in the impact value change rate is on the longer side as compared with the conventional material D, and it can be said that the deterioration over time is suppressed.
[0035]
Although both the developed material B and the conventional material E contain Cu, the heat treatment of 1038 ° C. × 1 hour + 593 ° C. × 4 hours is performed on the developed material B, and 1050 ° C. × 1 hour + 580 ° C. on the conventional material E. After heat treatment for 4 hours, aging was performed at 400 ° C., and a Charpy impact test was performed. Comparing the results, it can be said that the developed material B has a lower rate of change in impact value on a longer time side than the conventional material E, and it can be said that aging deterioration is suppressed.
[0036]
Next, the developed material C, the conventional material D, and the conventional material E all have a ferrite phase. However, the developed material C is subjected to a heat treatment at 927 ° C. × 1 hour + 593 ° C. × 4 hours, and then is aged at 400 ° C. Comparing the results of the impact test, it can be said that the developed material C has a lower impact value change rate on the longer time side than the conventional material D and the conventional material E, and it can be said that the deterioration over time is suppressed.
[0037]
