改进奥氏体不锈钢加工表面抗应力腐蚀性能的原理与方法研究

Stress corrosion cracking （SCC）is an major failure mode for the service materials exposed to pressurized water reactor (PWR) primary environment. Conventional surface cutting inherently affects the microstructure and mechanical properties of the subsurface material，and generally results in reduction of the stress corrosion resistance of austenitic stainless steels. This project aims at the parts that need to be machined to ensure geometric accuracy, and studies the principle of new machining-based surface treating processes for controlling surface microstructure transformation to improve the resistance to intergranular stress corrosion. At first, quantitative analysis will be conducted to study the relationship between the machining-induced plastic deformation and the microstructure evolution of the material by relating grain and sub-grain sizes to the deformation parameters. Based on the surface machining process proposed in this project, the relationship between the thermal-mechanical loading and the microstructure and grain boundary of the subsurface material will be established. Then, by means of molecular dynamics simulation, we will simulate the response of the special grain boundaries and dislocation channels to the environment and stress, and reveal the inherent relationship between SCC and the microstructure and mechanical properties of the material caused by the surface treatment. At last, under the simulated high temperature water environment, the process parameters of surface treatment based on machining is optimized through the SCC susceptibility tests of austenitic stainless steels, and the improvement of surface treatment on stress corrosion resistance is evaluated. The research results can provide the basic theoretical support and economic method for improving the stress corrosion resistance of machined parts servicing under high temperature water environment of nuclear power stations.
