“…On the other hand, the oxide dispersion distribution in the ODS remains stable after aging, as confirmed by TEM and APT analyses; so, any detrimental effect that might be caused by the intermetallic phases to the mechanical properties seems to be compensated by the stable nanoparticle dispersion. This same explanation is valid to justify the observed DBTT slight displacement from 255±12 K in the ODS reference material to 270±20 K in the ODS aged one [33]. Similar strength values for the ODS alloy before and after the aging treatment seem to be due to the observed stability of the Y-Ti-O nanoparticle dispersion.…”
