Effect of applied stress on T91 steel performance in liquid lead at 400 °C

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The environmental performance of structural materials (e.g., corrosion and environmental assisted cracking) is one of the critical issues being addressed in the development of Generation IV fast reactors. This work aims to support the study of the performance of the ferritic-martensitic steel T91 in liquid lead, under close to operation conditions, in order to assess its suitability for an application in lead fast reactors. T91 steel was tested in air and liquid lead at 400 degrees C using static and slow loading regimes. Applied stresses were chosen to be slightly above the yield strength in order to evaluate the threshold stress and strain for crack initiation. Three-point bending static exposure and constant extension tests of tapered specimens were performed. Post-test surfaces and cross sections of specimens were observed using scanning electron microscopy techniques in order to detect cracks and to analyze oxide layers. The effect of strain rate of the oxide layer cracking was observed. In conclusion, T91 was not susceptible to liquid metal embrittlement, a special case of environmentally assisted cracking under the testing conditions. The cracking conditions are discussed based on previous experience.
