AbstractA new kind of martensitic ZG1Cr10MoWVNbN heat-resistant steel has been attracted more attentions in recent years, which is mainly applied in ultra-supercritical steam turbines. The ageing property for ZG1Cr10MoWVNbN heat-resistant steel is very important because it often serves for long-time at high-temperature environment. Herein, a long-term ageing heat treatment was conducted on ZG1Cr10MoWVNbN steel at 600 °C heat for 17,000 hours. The microstructure evolution and property variation of the ZG1Cr10MoWVNbN steel were analysed before and after ageing, and also the effect of the precipitates on the mechanical properties was studied. The result showed that strength, the plastic index and impact power of the ZG1Cr10MoWVNbN steel were gradually decreased after long-term and high-temperature ageing at 600 °C due to the changes of martensite morphology and the coarsening of M23C6 carbide precipitation phase. Furthermore, fine precipitation of matrix MX carbide can also attribute to the change of mechanical properties at high temperature.

Effect of heat treatment on the precipitation behavior of secondary phases in a HR3C austenitic heat resistant steel was investigated. The microstructure of the steel in solution-treated state consists of austenitic matrix and coarse Z-phase particles. After aging treatment at 650–950°C for 1h, M23C6-type carbide precipitates along random grain boundaries. Dense and homogeneous nanosized Z-phase precipitates within austenite grains are obtained by an aging treatment at a temperature between 800 and 900°C for 1h. The high density of dislocation walls produced during the water-cooling process after solution treatment facilitate the precipitation of the nanosized Z-phase. With increasing the aging temperature, the hardness initially drops, then increases and reaches a peak when the aging temperature is at 850°C due to the precipitation of the nanosized Z-phase.
