| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Phase stability, phase equilibria and the precipitation behavior of σ phase, which has been considered as a detrimental phase, in carbon free Fe-Cr-Ni austenitic heat resistant steels have been examined, in order to seek its new possibilities as a strengthening spices. The stability of the σ phase in Fe-Cr-Ni ternary system increases by the addition of Mo and Mn. Especially, the thermodynamically stable σ phase increase by 300K by Mo addition. Proposed steels designed by newly created database revealed a unique microstructure having 90 % of the grain boundaries of the total grain boundaries are covered by the σ phase after prolonged aging at 1073 K. This result shows a possibility to have a excellent creep rupture strength of the steels by grain-boundary precipitation strengthening. In addition, the σ phase shows solid solution softening by the elements in solution, indicating that alloying can change the nature of σ phase.
