Assessment of Microstructural Degradation in 2.25Cr-1Mo Steel Using Miniature Specimen Technique
Abstract:
Miniature specimen techniques viz. small-punch tests (SPT) have been carried out at room temperature in order to correlate the microstructural degradation of 2.25Cr-1Mo steel with that of SPT parameters. Microstructural degradation of this steel has been introduced as a result of thermal ageing corresponding to Larson-Miller parameters (LMP) values of 33,012, 35,402, 37,846 and 38,374. SPT parameters viz. total area and area under the region of plastic instability of the load-displacement curve have been found to decrease with an increase in LMP values. A strength parameter viz. UTS obtained using uniaxial tensile tests has also been found to decrease with an increase in LMP values. The results indicated that miniature specimen techniques viz. small-punch test could be successfully used to assess the degradation of microstructures in 2.25Cr-1Mo steel generated due to their exposure to high temperatures.
