Research paper thumbnail of Correlation between dislocation organization and slip bands: TEM and AFM investigations in hydrogen-containing nickel and nickel–chromium

The heterogeneity of deformation is investigated at two distinct scales: slip bands and dislocation structures, using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and transmission electronic microscopy (TEM). Size and distribution of slip band thicknesses and geometrically necessary boundary (GNB) spacing are comparable. GNB structures both screen the long-range stress fields and decrease the mean free path of mobile dislocations, whereas equiaxed cells only impede dislocation motion through their role as obstacles. Consequently, GNB formation localizes deformation in specific slip bands. Additionally, the observed similarity between GNB spacing and equiaxed cell size suggests a correlation between these microstructural features. The impact of solid solution atoms on the inter-wall spacing is established for chromium and hydrogen. Both decrease the GNB spacing because of a decrease of the cross-slip probability and stacking fault energy, combined to a shielding effect for the later. The effect of GNB spacing on strain hardening is discussed in terms of the length scale associated with GNBs and the effect of solute content.

The static strain ageing (SSA) experiments provide the quantitative data to evaluate this phenomenon. The maximum pinning stress increases with hydrogen concentration in pure Ni and Ni-16Cr. At room temperature, the corresponding solute drag yields a hardening contribution to the flow stress, up to 20 MPa for a concentration of 1900 at.ppm. Incorporating the shielding of pair interactions into classical results of the dislocation theory, an analytical expressions is proposed for the effect of solute hydrogen on the mechanisms and dislocation properties: the line energy and line tension of curved dislocations, the critical shear stress for the expansion of a dislocation loop, and the cross-slip of screw dislocation. Based on these analytical results, numerical simulations are developed to evaluate the role of hydrogen on the activity of a Frank-Read source and on the stability of dislocation junctions. The detailed modeling provides quantitative tools for interpreting the mechanical testing of hydrogen-containing samples in terms of dislocation mechanisms.

Research paper thumbnail of HTR2008-58164 Corrosion Issues of HTR Structural Metallic Materials

Reference alloys for circuit and Intermediate Heat eXchanger (IHX) are nickel-based with about 22%wt. of chromium. Compatibility with the HTR primary helium appears to be a determining property for the material selection and qualification. The coolant is actually polluted by a low level of impurities that can interact with metals at high temperature. Oxidation, carburization and/or decarburization occur, in relation to atmosphere characteristics, temperature and alloy chemical composition. As these corrosion effects can notably influence the mechanical properties, they often are determining to the component service life. Since the corrosion behavior is highly sensitive to environmental conditions, material studies require dedicated facilities that shall allow for a strict control of the environment throughout the entire specimen exposure. AREVA NP,...

Research paper thumbnail of Experimental analysis and computer‐based simulation of nitridation of Ni‐base alloys—the effect of a pre‐oxidation treatment

They are designed to resist high creep loading and severe corrosion attack during operation. Nitridation is one of these corrosion processes, in particular when the alloys need to be exposed to a N 2 atmosphere. Based on past assumptions, a dense oxide layer should be an efficient barrier against N 2 ingress. But is this really the case? This work is focused on the nitridation behavior of commercial Ni-base alloys and the influence of a pre-oxidation treatment. To model the growth of the internal-nitridation zone, the diffusion processes were solved using the numerical implicit finite-difference method in combination with the subroutine ChemApp for thermodynamic calculations.

Static Strain Ageing experiments are used to measure the saturated dislocation pinning force as a function of the H concentration. First order hydrogen -dislocation interactions causes a shielding of the pair interactions between edge dislocations. The influence of this screening effect is analytically evaluated on the selfenergy and line tension of curved dislocations, the critical force for the expansion of a dislocation loop and the dissociation mechanism. These results are used to interpret experimental results on the plastic flow of hydrogen-charged nickel single crystals oriented for easy glide. This study illustrates the mechanisms of H -dislocation interactions and their consequences on the different contributions of hydrogen to the flow stress of nickel.
