Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Intercritically Treated Grade 91 Steel. [PDF]
Premature creep failures at the intercritical heat affected zone (ICHAZ) of creep-resistant steel weldments have been frequently reported. However, the creep degradation mechanism of different microstructure constituents in ICHAZ is complicated and needs further clarification.

Small punch tensile/fracture test data and 3D specimen surface data on Grade 91 ferritic/martensitic steel from cryogenic to room temperature [PDF]
Raw data from small punch tensile/fracture tests at two displacement rates in the temperature range from −196 °C to room temperature on Grade 91 ferritic/martensitic steel are presented. A number of specimens were analyzed after testing by means of X-ray

A Phenomenological Model for Creep and Creep-Fatigue Crack Growth Rate Behavior in Ferritic Steels
A model to rationalize the effects of test temperature and microstructural variables on the creep crack growth (CCG) and creep-fatigue crack growth (CFCG) rates in ferritic steels is described. The model predicts that as the average spacing between grain

Metallurgical Risk Factors in Grade 91 Steel [PDF]
Abstract Modified 9Cr-1Mo steel (ASTM Gr.91) is widely used in components of fossil fueled power plants around the world today. This grade of steel has however been shown to exhibit significant variations in creep life and creep ductility, which has led to premature in-service failures.

Insight into Type IV cracking in Grade 91 steel weldments
In this work, an insight into the premature Type IV cracking was undertaken to clarify its mechanisms in Grade 91 steel pipe weldments. High-resolution microscopy observations of the as-welded heat-affected zone (HAZ) reveal that the commonly recognized ...

Creep and creep crack growth behaviors for base, weld, and heat affected zone in a grade 91 weldment
This study investigated the creep and creep crack growth (CCG) behavior of the base metal (BM), weld metal (WM), and heat affected zone (HAZ) in a Gr. 91 weldment, which was made by a shield metal arc weld process.

Electromagnetic evaluation of the microstructure of Grade 91 tubes/pipes [PDF]
AbstractThis paper assesses the feasibility of transferring a laboratory-based electromagnetic (EM) sensor technique, which has already proved sensitive to significant (e.g. phase balance) or subtle (e.g. number density of fine precipitates) microstructural changes in steel, to non-destructive evaluation of the microstructure of power generation ...
