Influence of boron on the stress-rupture behavior of an additively manufactured Hastelloy X

QC 20230523
The influence of minor additions of boron and the as-built (AB) microstructure on stress-rupture behavior of a modified crack-free Hastelloy X fabricated by laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) was investigated. Isothermal stress rupture tests were performed at 816 degrees C under a static tensile load of 103 MPa. Micro-void formation in the vicinity of carbide precipitates and their coalescence was only observed at chevron-like high-angle grain boundaries, characteristic of L-PBF process. These grain boundaries, laying on the planes with maximum resolved shear stress with respect to the loading direction, directly governed the intergranular crack propagation. In view of the fracture mechanism and the time to rupture, increasing boron content significantly improves timeto-rupture through a diffusion-controlled mechanism by hindering the carbon diffusion to the grain boundaries. Adequate additions of boron (>10 ppm) guarantee the stress-rupture properties (strength) of the AB components without the need for additional post-thermal treatments. Further increase in boron content (i.e., 30 ppm), led to about five times increase in time to rupture (500 h vs. 110 h), and significantly improved creep elongation (30% vs. 9%) compared with the low boron alloy.
