Mechanical Property of Fecral-Y 2 O 3 Foil Fabricated by EBPVD

As a rapid deposition method, Electron Beam Physical Vapor Deposition (EBPVD) permits the fast fabrication of self-standing thick coatings with thickness in the range from several micrometers to hundreds of micrometers. In this paper, we present a new way to fabricate ferritic ODS alloy foil. By this method, 1.2 wt.% of yttria was successfully added to the ferritic base material. The base alloys are mainly composed of bcc structured Fe (Cr,Al) solid solution. The steady state creep rate of ferritic ODS is almost two magnitudes lower than that of FeCrAl alloy. Further thermo-mechanical treatment is expected to improve strength and ductility of both ODS and non-ODS material.
