Mechanical Properties of Martensite in Heat-Resistant Steels • Why are modern steels martensitic? • What makes martensite desirable? • Can the martensite be optimised?
Why martensitic? • Greater Cr needed for oxidation, corrosion resistance • Cr must be balanced by other elements to avoid ∂-ferrite • Therefore, greater hardenability.
Conclusions • If creep controlled by dislocation climb, then refine matrix grains • Coarsening should be worse in high Cr steels • For equivalent conditions 2.25Cr1Mo is better than 9Cr1Mo
