Strengthening and degradation mechanisms in austenitic stainless steel

Meer over het boek

The book delves into the critical need for advanced materials in power generation, particularly austenitic stainless steels like 310 and Sanicro 25, to meet increasing electricity demands and reduce CO2 emissions. It discusses the development of high-temperature materials with enhanced creep rupture strength and oxidation resistance. Fundamental models addressing particle precipitation during the aging of these steels have been created and validated through extensive experimentation, highlighting their impact on mechanical properties over prolonged exposure to high temperatures.
