Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The mechanical properties, the microstructure, and the phase composition of steel 07Kh16N6 with different contents of carbon after a heat treatment simulating the production process of a part from steel 07Kh16N6 and granulated nickel alloy ÉP741NP joined by the method of HIP fully recover the optimum values after the final heat treatment by a regime recommended for steel 07Kh16N6. The mechanical properties of alloy ÉP741NP do not worsen.

  2. 2.

    Counter diffusion of Fe, Cr, and C from the steel into the alloy and of Ti, Al, Nb, W, and Mo from the alloy into the steel is observed in the diffusion zone of the combined preform. A narrow (15–20 μm) carbide zone with an elevated concentration of titanium is formed due to the counter diffusion over granule boundaries of alloy ÉP741NP. The depth of iron diffusion into alloy ÉP741NP is 40–50 μm.

  3. 3.

    The mechanical properties of the combined preform at a temperature ranging from −196 to +650°C are close to the properties of steel 07Kh16N6; fracture occurs predominantly over the diffusion zone.

  4. 4.

    In order to raise the working capacity and reliability of units with rotating parts from alloy ÉP741NP joined permanently to a shaft from steel 07Kh16N6 by the method of HIP, the shaft should be coated with a nickel barrier layer that diminishes the possibility of the formation of titanium carbide on the surface of alloy ÉP741NP over granule boundaries.
