Thermodynamic calculation, thermal analysis, and identification and observation of precipitates have been carried out on a W-alloyed 10 wt pct Cr steel by means of ThermoCalc program, differential thermal analysis (DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with an energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer, respectively. Several critical phase transformation points were determined by combining experimental results with calculations. Two individually stable phases of Nb(C, N) and VN, instead of one single phase MX (X: C, N), M23C6 or Laves phases, were predicted in the calculated equilibrium phase diagram. An unstable elongated M7C3 with relatively higher Cr was detected unexpectedly in the normalized and tempered steel. Two kinds of spherical Nb(C, N) with different size were recognized as the primary and the secondary precipitates of Nb(C, N) which contain different V contents. It was observed that one kind of complex precipitate in a special V-wing shape was resulted from two plate-like VN adhering to coarse primary spherical Nb(C, N).

2.25Cr-1.6W-V-Nb developed in Japan, is a low alloy heat resistant steel with good comprehensive properties. Influence of long term creep at elevated temperature on the structure of 2.25Cr-1.6W-V-Nb steel was studied in this paper, and the micromechanism of creep strength degradation was elucidated, too. Both TEM observation and thermodynamic calculation reveal that during creep the transformation occurs from M7C3 and M23C6 to M6C, which can be cavity nucleation sites. Besides, creep at 600℃ also leads to the decrease of dislocation density, the coarsening and coalescence of M23C6, the nucleation of cavities and development of cracks. The strength decrease of 2.25Cr-1.6W-V-Nb steel after long term creep is related to the decrease of dislocation hardening, precipitation hardening, solution hardening, the nucleation of cavities and development of cracks.
