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.

The high-temperature mechanical properties and microstructure of HK40 heat-resistant steel with different content of Al were investigated. The results from scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope showed that a large amount of spheroidal and dispersed γ′ phase were observed HK40 steel with 4.72wt.% and 7.10wt.% Al. The diameter of γ′ phase decreases from about 1.5μm to 50nm after solution treatment of 1200°C for 5h. The results of short term tensile test showed that tensile strength at 900°C decreased and the elongation was improved with increasing Al content. The oxides in the alloy with 4.72wt.% and 7.10wt.% Al were more uniform and finer than that in the alloy with and without 1.68wt.% Al.
