Advanced Ultra-supercritical (A-USC) steam power-plant technology is being developed for better efficiency and lower emissions at 700°C and above, but is based mainly on Ni-based alloys. The ability to include lower-cost alloys with appropriate high-temperature performance should have substantial technological and economic benefits. CF8C-Plus is a cast austenitic stainless steel recently developed for other applications at 600-900°C, which has creep-strength comparable to many solid-solution Ni-based alloys. EPRI and Carpenter Technology produced a 400 lb heat of CF8C-Plus steel and hot-forged it at 5:1 and 12:1 reductions, to assess feasibility of the alloy as a wrought advanced stainless steel for potential use as steam headers and piping for A-USC power plant applications. The hot-forged alloy has a recrystallized grain structure 6-9 times finer than the as-cast dendritic structure, resulting in better strength and impact resistance at room-temperature, and about 20% higher yield-strength (YS) at 760°C, and similar or better ductility compared to the as-cast material. The initial creep-rupture testing at 700-800°C for up to 2000h also indicates similar or better rupture resistance and better creep-ductility for wrought compared to cast material. The next steps needed to test performance of the wrought austenitic stainless steel for extruded headers and piping are discussed.
