A709 Procurement and ASTM Specification Status

This is a presentation regarding A709 Procurement and ASTM Specification Status for the Joint ART Materials/AMMT Program Review meeting. The A709 team consists of Argonne National Laboratory, Idaho National Laboratory, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and Subject matter expert John Grubb and Richard Wright. Discussion topics will discuss incorporation of 709 into ASTM Standard A 240 for plate material in the solution annealed condition with a precipitation treatment as a supplemental requirement is underway, Incorporation of Alloy 709 into ASME, Section II, Specification SA 240 will be made upon the completion of the ASTM task, The required commercial scale heats of Alloy 709 for property characterization to provide the technical basis for Code qualification have been procured, and Laboratory testing of properties from these three heats is underway as will be discussed separately at this review meeting.

FY24 progress report on A709 mechanical properties data development and A709 thermal aging status

The report provides the status of the creep, fatigue, and creep-fatigue testing to date conducted at Idaho National Laboratory to generate the data package. This data package evaluates the material performance from three commercial heats to support the Alloy 709 qualification in American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section III, Division 5. First procured heat was manufactured by G.O. Carlson with heat number 58776. Second and third heats were fabricated by ATI Specialty Rolled Products with heat numbers 529900 and 530843, respectively. A series of creep and cyclic specimens were fabricated from these three heats and tests were performed. A list of finished, ongoing, and planned test are presented for creep, fatigue, and creep-fatigue tests. Cyclic properties of three commercial heats are compared.

Summary report on the mechanical testing performed at INL for creep rupture, fatigue, creep-fatigue, and aging of A709 base material

The report provides the status of the creep, fatigue, and creep-fatigue testing to conducted at Idaho National Laboratory to generate a data package to support Alloy 709 qualification in American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section III, Division 5. These tests were performed on three commercial heats of plate material. The first procured heat was manufactured by G.O. Carlson with heat number 58776. Second and third heats were fabricated by ATI Specialty Rolled Products, with heat numbers 529900 and 530843, respectively. A series of creep and cyclic specimens were fabricated from these three heats, and tests were performed. This report presents a master list of all completed and ongoing creep, fatigue, and creep fatigue tests. Cyclic properties of three commercial heats are compared. Thermal aging of three commercial heats for 3000 hours were completed in FY 2025. The thermal aging campaign to age plate material from three commercial heats up to 100,000 hours is ongoing.

Machining of Alloy 709 Creep-fatigue Specimens from G. O. Carlson Heat

Alloy 709 has been selected as the next candidate material for Section III, Division 5 qualification in the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC) for elevated-temperature nuclear construction. The qualification data package requires an assortment of information and material data including tensile, creep, and creep-fatigue performance at elevated temperatures from different material heats. The goal of the project is to generate a dataset to support qualification of Alloy 709 material for ASME BPVC design code. Working towards the project goal, Idaho National Laboratory needs to conduct a series of tests on three different heats to support the A709 code case development. At present, there is a gap in the data package for one of the heats: Heat number 58776 manufactured by G.O. Carlson. To address this data gap, Argonne National Laboratory transmitted five plates of A709 heat 58776 manufactured by G.O. Carlson to Idaho National Laboratory. These plates were solution annealed at 1150°C and heat treated at 775°C for 10 hours. The objective of this specification is to procure a series of creep-fatigue specimens to support the qualification data package. The creep-fatigue specimen design captures the cyclic material performance at elevated temperature. The material performance data generated from specimens machined herein will support the ASME BPVC code case development and establish design limits, and design life curves for Alloy 709 material.
