Abstract:The MC precipitate size distributions have been measured for times of 1, 10, 100, 300 and 1000 hr at 700 and 900° C in a 16Ni-14Cr advanced austenitic steel. A new correlation between the mean precipitate size, aging time and temperature has been developed. The new correlation is compatible with a solute exhaustion mechanism, which may explain why (i) the MC precipitates formed on matrix dislocations resist coarsening for up to 3000 hr at 900°C; and (ii) the degree of cold work (i.e., the dislocation density),… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
