Abstract

En 中文
The nano-scale L12-Ni3Al precipitates significantly contribute to thermal stability of alumina-forming austenitic (AFA) steels. The coarsening behavior of L12-Ni3Al precipitates in AFA steels during isothermal aging with considering the influence of alloying elements was investigated. The results show that the coarsening rate of L12-Ni3Al precipitates increases with co-additions of Ni and Cu, and especially, the increase of Cu content promotes the nucleation of L12-Ni3Al precipitates. A dynamic competition exists between Lifshitz–Slyozov–Wagner theory and transient interface diffusion-controlled theory for coarsening behavior of L12-Ni3Al precipitates with duration of isothermal aging. Additionally, the transition from L12-Ni3Al precipitates to B2-NiAl precipitates during isothermal aging results in the formation of a depleted zone of L12-Ni3Al precipitates around B2-NiAl precipitates, which inhibits the growth of L12-Ni3Al precipitates. The coarsening of L12-Ni3Al precipitates significantly contributes to the yield strength of AFA steels.
