Abstract

The features of the chemical and phase composition, structure and transformations in boride inclusions in the steel 04H14Т3R1F, used for the manufacture of hexagonal pipe covers used during transportation to the place of regeneration and storage of spent fuel assemblies (FA) of nuclear power plants, have been studied. It has been established that steel 04H14Т3R1F contains two types of boride inclusions (Ti,Fe,Cr,V)2B with a shell of (Ti,Cr,V)2B and (Fe,Cr)2B, which have significant chemical heterogeneity. It is shown that in the process of hot deformation the phase and structural transformations occur: a change in the composition of borides due to the redistribution of elements, dynamic diffusion fragmentation and release of “satellite” particles, brittle destruction of borides, boride transformation. The behavior of boride inclusions and their influence on the mechanical properties of 04H14T3R1F steel at different plastic deformation temperatures was studied.
