“…The HRA drives its resistance because of the combinational effects of Fe-Ni-Cr ''HP'' or Fe-Cr-Ni ''HK.' ' The majority of the reported deterioration in hightemperature operating components are creep damage [1][2][3][4][5], microstructural degradation [6][7][8], high-temperature fatigue [9][10][11], creep fatigue [12][13][14], sigma-phase embrittlement [15][16][17][18][19], carburization [20][21][22], hydrogen damage, graphitization, thermal shock, erosion, liquid metal embrittlement, and high-temperature corrosion of various types. Generally, virtually all failures are the result of microstructural changes at high temperature.…”
