摘要

The effect of grain boundary carbides on mechanical properties and ductility-dip cracking (DDC) was investigated in Ni-Cr-Fe deposited metals. Microstructural analysis indicates that the segregation of Nb, Ti, and C during the solidification of Ni-Cr-Fe deposited metals promotes the precipitation of (Nb, Ti)C and Cr23C6 at grain boundaries. As the Nb content increases (1.11-1.58 wt.%), the formation of M23C6 carbides along grain boundaries is suppressed, leading to an improvement in impact energy from 55 to 90 J and an increase in room-temperature tensile strength from 510 to 626 MPa. According to stress-to-fracture (STF) and high-temperature tensile tests, M23C6 accumulation at grain boundaries between 700 and 1000 °C reduces intergranular strength, facilitates intergranular cracking, and enhances susceptibility to DDC. However, between 900 and 1000 °C, partial dissolution and localized recrystallization of M23C6 help restore the material’s plasticity.
