| Description |
This investigation highlights the creep deformation and rupture behaviour of Nb and Cu added 18Cr-8Ni
austenitic stainless steel and compared with those of commercial 18Cr-8Ni steel. Uni-axial creep tests were
performed at ( 288 – 320 ) MPa / 600 ° C and ( 80 – 110 ) MPa / 750 ° C on Nb and Cu added 18Cr-8Ni austenitic
stainless steel. Accelerated creep tests predicted that creep characteristic of the alloy was insigni fi cant or
anelastic type below the stress level of ∼ 166 MPa at 600 ° C and ∼ 57 MPa at 750 ° C. True creep exponent
value of 8 at ( 288 – 320 ) MPa / 600 ° C and 4 at ( 80 – 110 ) MPa / 750 ° C, exhibited that the alloy followed high
temperature climb controlled power law creep in the speci fi ed creep test condition. The alloy was more
creep brittle in nature than that of commercial 18Cr-8Ni austenitic stainless steel. The brittleness was
attributed to the presence of Nb ( C, N ) , nano-sized Cu precipitation along the transgranular region and
occurrence of Cr 23 C 6 secondary carbides along the grain boundaries. Fractographic features revealed that
the alloy was prone to intergranular fracture due to creep cavitation and their linkages.
