Abstract
Effects of phosphorus segregation on stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in the heat-affected zone of an Alloy 182-A533B dissimilar weld joint in high-temperature, oxygenated water doped with SO42- and Cl- were evaluated by creviced bent beam test. Results indicate that step cooling and the addition of Cl- promoted SCC propagation and reactivation in the HAZ after cracks reach the fusion boundary. It is also suggested that phosphorus segregation at grain/packet boundaries and precipitate-matrix interfaces have promoted SCC, especially in coarse-grained HAZ and intercritically reheated coarse-grained HAZ.
