It has been reported that the creep characteristics on weldment which is composed of weld metal(W.M), fusion line(F.L), heat-affected zone(HAZ), and base meta(B.M) could be unpredictably changed in severe service conditions such as high temperature and high pressure. However, the studies done on creep damage in power plant components have been mostly conducted on B.M and not the creep properties of the localized microstructures in weldment have been thoroughly investigated yet. In this paper, it is investigated the creep characteristics for three microstructures like coarse-grain HAZ(CGHAZ), W.M, and B.M in X20CrMoV121 steel weldment by the small punch-creep-(SP-Creep) test using miniaturized specimen(l0×10×0.5mm). The W.M microstructure possesses the higher creep resistance and shows lower creep strain rate than the B.M and CGHAZ. In the lower creep load the highest creep strain rate is exhibited in CGHAZ, whereas in the higher creep load the B.M represents the high creep strain rate. The power law correlation for all microstructures exists between creep rate and creep load at 600℃. The values of creep load index (n) based on creep strain rate for B.M, CGHAZ, and W.M are 7.54, 4.23, and 5.06, respectively and CGHAZ which shows coarse grains owing to high welding heat has the lowest creep loade index. In all creep loads, the creep life for W.M shows the highest value.

The thermomechanical control process(in hot rolling strip mill) was employed to produce 2.25Cr-1Mo steel, which is to be construction material for the steam generator for power plant. Although the Conventional processes has been the primary means of producing the 2.25Cr-1Mo steel, an alternative method was used to meet the specification of ASTM heat treatment for A387-22-Classl using autotempering after coiling in hot rolling strip mill. The microstructures, tensile properties at various temperatures, and creep-rupture properties have been investigated to compare the properties with those of materials produced by the conventional process and to certify the application of the thermomechanical control process to an actual process of manufacturing 2.25-Cr-1Mo steel, this in turn, will reduce the cost of the process. About 14 to 34% glanular bainite (remainder proetectoid ferrite) formed in a coil, and this variety of volume fraction stems from the different cooling rates, which varies with position of the coil after coiling. Tensile testing from room temperature to 700$^{\circ}C$ indicated that strength increases with test temperature showing peaks at around 600$^{\circ}C$. Creep-rupture properties have been being investigated at the temperature of 500$^{\circ}C$ with 27.5, 32kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$ loads and have showed no rupture for over 1000 hours.

In this study, shear punch-creep (SP-Creep) at Sn-4Ag/Cu pad the joint was tested by using environment-friendly Pb-free solder alloy Sn-4Ag of electronic components. Pb eutectic alloy (Sn-37Pb) joints limited to environmental issues with reflow time (10sec, 30sec, 100sec, 300sec) according to two types of solder alloy joints are compared and evaluated by creep strain rate, rupture time and IMC (Intermetallic Compound) behavior. As the results, reflow time increases with increasing thickness of IMC can be seen at overall 100sec later in case of two solder joints on the IMC thickness of Sn-4Ag solder joints thicker than Sn-37Pb solder joints. In addition, when considering creep evaluation factors, lead-free solder alloy Sn-4Ag has excellent creep resistance more than Pb eutectic alloy. For this reason, the two solder joints, such as in the IMC (Cu6Sn5) was formed. However, the creep resistance of Sn-4Ag solder joints was largely increased in the precipitation strengthening effect of dispersed Ag3Sn with interface more than Sn-37Pb solder joints.

This paper investigates the influence of aging time on creep properties via a small punch creep test and evaluates the microstructural change of P122 steel at $600^{\circ}C$. The area fraction of precipitates was quantitatively analyzed to identify the relationship between the creep rupture life and precipitates was coarsening behavior of precipitates along the grain boundaries was also investigated for various aging times. It is found that this coarsening behavior led to a loss of solution hardening and rewulte in a hardness drop and a reduction of creep life.

In the life assessment for plant structural component, the research on deterioration of toughness and material properties occurred in weldments has been considered as very important problems. In general, the microstructures composed in weldments are hugely classified with weld metal(W.M), fusion line(F.L), heat affected zone(HAZ), and base metal(B.M). It has been reported that the creep characteristics on weldments having variable microstructures could be unpredictably changed. Furthermore, it is also known that HAZ adjacent to F.L exhibits the decreased creep strength compared to those in base or weld metals, and promotes the occurrence of Type III and Type IV cracking due to the growth of grains and the coarsening carbides precipitated in ferritic matrix by welding and PWHT processes. However, the lots of works reported up to date on creep damage in power plant components have been mostly conducted on B.M and the creep properties on a localized microstructures in weldments have not as yet been throughly investigated. In this paper, for various microstructures such as coarse grain HAZ(CGHAZ), W.M and B.M in X20CrMoV121 steel weldment, the small punch-creep(SP-Creep) test using miniaturized specimen(t=0.5mm, 0.25mm) is performed to investigate a possibility for creep characteristics evaluation.

As a measure of improving the mechanical properties of a diffusion bonded joint of a ferritic/martensitic steel (FMS), the post-bonding heat treatment (PBHT) is applied. In the temperature range of normalizing condition ($950-1,050^{\circ}C$), diffusion bonding is employed with compressive stress (6 MPa). Due to the martensite structure distributed in the matrix, Vicker's hardness values of the as-bonded are much higher than those of the as-received. Through the PBHT for 1 h at $720^{\circ}C$, hardness values are recovered to as low as those of the as-received condition. Also, tensile properties of PBHT are similar to those of the as-received at up to the test temperature of $550^{\circ}C$, when the diffusion bonding is carried out over $1,000^{\circ}C$. Based on the creep-rupture testing performed at $650^{\circ}C$ in air environment, the joint efficiency of the PBHTed specimens is about 80% in, which is higher than that of the as-bonded specimens.

W-0.4wt% Ni, W-0.8wt% Ni 활성 소결체의 Ni rich상의 양이 응력 파단 성질에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여, direct load creep tester를 사용, 100$0^{\circ}C$~120$0^{\circ}C$, 수소 분위기에서 응력 파단시험을 하였다. 100시간 응력 파단 강도는 니켈 함량이 0.4wt%, 0.8wt%로 증가 함에 따라, W-0.2wt% Ni의 경우와 비교하여 100$0^{\circ}C$에서 43%, 90%, $1100^{\circ}C에서$ 35%, 60% 높았으며, 이는 초기 결정립 조대화, 비이론밀도의 상승과 시험 중 결정립 성장 때문으로 생각된다. W-0.4wt% Ni의 크리프변형 활성화 에너지는 81.3kca1/mol으로, 변형기구는 Ni rich 상을 통한 W 확산과 결정립 내부 변형이다. 응력 파단 시험 후, 파단면은 입계 파괴 양상을 나타내었다. 소결시 생성된 고립 기공이 결정입계에 있는 Ni rich상을 따라 전파하였기 때문이다.

전세계 전자패키지 산업에서 납(Pb) 사용에 대한 환경규제 움직임이 본격화되고 있어 새로운 무연솔더의 개발이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 게다가 무연솔더의 신뢰성에 대한정보가 아직까지 많이 부족한 실정이다 무연솔더의 신뢰성에 영향을 줄수 있는 것 중의 하나가 Sn pest라고 알려진 동소체 변태이다. Sn pest가 형성될 때 동반되는 부피의 증가는 솔더 조인트의 신뢰성을 저하시킨다. 이미 보고된 바에 따르면, Sn 고용도가 있는 원소(Pb, Bi, Sb)들을 첨가시킬 경우 Sn pest가 효과적으로 억제된다. 그러나 Sn pest를 억제하는 합금에 대한 기계적인 특성에 연구가 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 Sn과 Sn-0.7Cu를 기반으로 하여 Bi, Sb을 첨가한 솔더 합금을 사용하여 lap shear크리프 실험을 하였다. 본 연구에서 사용한 합금들의 변형율은 전체적으로 Sn-3.5Ag를 기반으로 하는 합금들보다 높았다. 파괴까지 이르는 변형량은 Sn-0.5Bi가 가장 크고 Sn-0.7Cu-0.5Sb 합금이 가장 작았는데 이러한 경향은 Sn-0.5Bi 합금의 파단면에 Sn globules이 길게 늘어나 있고 Sn-0.7Cu-0.5Sb 합금에서는 더 짧은 Sn globules 이 관찰되는 결과와 일치하였다.

화학적 열화를 빠르게 유도할 수 있는 단파장의 자외선(254 nm)을 고밀도 폴리에틸렌의 표면에 조사하여, 생성된 carbonyl band의 변화로부터 기계적 물성 변화를 예측할 수 있는 지에 대한 가능성을 연구하였다. 오랜 시간이 요구되는 자연 태양광에 의한 옥외폭로시험이나, 제논-아크 광원에 의한 광 열화 대신에 광양자 에너지가 높은 UVC 램프를 사용함으로써, 유도되는 광열화의 화학적 특성이 동일한 기계적 물성 변화를 유발하는지를 확인하는 것에 본 연구의 의미가 있다. 인장시험과 크리프-파괴시험으로 진행된 고밀도 폴리에틸렌의 기계적 강도는 CI 변화에 유사한 양상을 보였으며, 특히 항복강도와 신장률은 자외선 노출시간과 밀접한 관계가 있음을 보여주었다. 따라서 빠른 표면 열화를 유발하는 UVC 램프를 활용한 카르보닐 지수와 기계적 물성 변화의 관계를 통하여 장시간이 요구되는 옥외에서의 기계적 물성변화를 보다 빠르게 파악할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였다.
