割れ性(以下耐SCC性という)に関する検討が必ずし
も十分に行なわれてはいないという欠点があった。Conventional springs for nuclear reactors have been produced mainly by subjecting them to solution treatment after melting, followed by cold rolling to give them 30 to 40% processing, and then subjecting them to aging treatment. These are manufacturing methods that use cold working and aging to ensure the high-temperature strength and spring characteristics required for spring materials for nuclear reactors. There has been a drawback in that studies regarding corrosion cracking resistance (hereinafter referred to as SCC resistance) have not necessarily been sufficiently conducted.
特に、原子炉用ばね(例えばBWR制御棒、駆動機構の
Cスプリング)は、高応力作用下で隙間が形成された賢
所で使用される場合が多く、SCC対策が重要である。In particular, nuclear reactor springs (for example, BWR control rods, C springs in drive mechanisms) are often used in sensitive areas where gaps are formed under high stress, and SCC countermeasures are important.

。Currently, Inconel (trade name) x750, which has high strength and high corrosion resistance, is used as springs for nuclear reactors, and most of them undergo 30 to 40% cold working after solution treatment, and then undergo aging. Manufactured using a processing (direct aging) process. The purpose of cold working after solution treatment is to obtain the final shape of the spring, while the aging treatment that follows cold working contributes to improving the spring properties and high-temperature strength of the spring material for nuclear reactors. It is something. However, even if 30 to 40% cold working is performed between solution treatment and aging treatment, it is unclear whether 30 to 40% cold working is effective in improving clearance SCC resistance, which is a practical problem. It has not been sufficiently considered.
なお、析出強化型合金の隙間SCC感受性は固溶強化型
合金と異なり、粒界腐食とSCCとの相関性は認められ
ない。Note that the interstitial SCC susceptibility of precipitation strengthened alloys is different from that of solid solution strengthened alloys, and no correlation between intergranular corrosion and SCC is observed.

CC性の向上が認められる。The present inventors changed the degree of cold working performed between solution treatment and aging treatment, and investigated the effect of the degree of cold working on clearance SCC resistance by a constant strain test with a gap in high-temperature, high-pressure pure water. did. As a result, we discovered the following new facts. (2) If 10 to 30% cold working is performed between the solution treatment and the direct aging treatment, the gap SCC susceptibility is greatly increased. However, if cold working is applied to more than 40% and less than 60%, the gap resistance S
Improvement in CC properties was observed.
