Microstructure and mechanical properties of ZrC nanoparticles dispersion-strengthened FeCrAl alloys containing Mo and Nb
FeCrAl based alloys are considered as one of the most promising candidates for the advanced accident tolerance fuel (ATF) cladding in light water reactors (LWRs). The effects of Mo and Nb elements and ZrC nanoscale particles addition on mechanical property and thermal stability of Fe-13Cr-5Al alloys were investigated, and the strengthening mechanism was assessed by microstructure characterizations including TEM and EBSD. The strength of alloys has been effectively improved along with an acceptable ductility at temperatures from RT to 800 °C. Especially at 800 °C, the ultimate tensile strength of FeCrAl-Mo-Nb-ZrC alloy has been improved to be 131 MPa, which is 138 % higher than that of raw Fe-13Cr-5Al alloys, respectively. At the same time, FeCrAl-Mo-Nb-ZrC alloy maintains high strength and favorable ductility after an annealing at 1000 °C for 20 h, indicating an ultra-high thermal stability. The enhanced high temperature strength and excellent thermal stability can be mainly attributed to the synergistic effects of the dispersion strengthening by nanoscale ZrC and alumina particles, solid solution strengthening by Mo and Nb elements and the grain refinement strengthening.
