TOPICAL REVIEW: Precipitate design for creep strengthening of 9% Cr tempered martensitic steel for ultra-supercritical power plants

It is crucial for the carbon concentration of 9% Cr steel to be reduced to a very low level, so as to promote the formation of MX nitrides rich in vanadium as very fine and thermally stable particles to enable prolonged periods of exposure at elevated temperatures and also to eliminate Cr-rich carbi...
