Abstract  

The microstructure and precipitates of the creep-ruptured and aged alloy 617B at 750oC were characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).The polygonal (or strip-type) M23C6 particles with a complex face-centered cubic (fcc) structure locate along grain boundaries and inside grains, and granular γ ′ phase particles with an ordered fcc-structure inside grains were observed during creep and aging. The precipitates grown up with test time. The comparative observation of the aged and creep-ruptured alloy samples revealed that the applied stress did not affect the growth of γ ′ phase obviously, but affect the precipitation of carbides at grain boundaries greatly. The stress leads to the sharp growth and agglomation of M23C6 particles after a long time creep test.

Key words:  metallic materials      alloy 617B      creep      aging      precipitate      stress
