Abstract
Oxide dispersed strengthened (ODS) steels can exhibit a strongly anisotropic microstructure leading to anisotropic mechanical properties. The ductile to brittle transition temperature in the small punch (SP) test is therefore dependent on the specimen orientation. Three ODS steels with 13-14 mass percent Cr, manufactured through hot extrusion and hot rolling respectively, were investigated by means of SPT in different orientations. Existing microstructural data (EBSD) are used to discuss the anisotropic fracture behavior observed in the SPT. In addition, the SPT results are compared with those from existing fracture mechanics tests based on sub-sized C(T) samples. The applicability of the empirical conversion of SPT based transition temperatures into Charpy transition temperatures – well established for isotropic homogeneous metals – is investigated for materials with anisotropic microstructure.
