In order to provide an austenitic single crystal stainless steel having preferable stress corrosion cracking resistance, strength, and irradiation induced embrittlement resistance so as to extend the life of a nuclear reactor core structure, which is used under a high radiation dose environment, a method is employed, which comprises the steps of homogeneously dispersing carbides into a parent phase of the austenitic single crystal stainless steel by a two step solution heat treatment, and subsequently effecting an ageing heat treatment after rapid cooling for precipitating fine carbides. Austenitic single crystal stainless steel having preferable stress corrosion cracking resistance, strength, and irradiation induced embrittlement resistance can be provided, and the life of nuclear reactor core structure, which is used under a high radiation dose environment, can be extended.

An object of the present invention is to inhibit intergranular corrosion of a lead alloy by grain refining, and to prolong the life and improve the reliability of a lead battery using the alloy for a positive current collector in the battery. The intergranular corrosion of the lead alloy is inhibited by adding Sr to a Pb—Sn alloy to refine a cast structure and the recrystallized structure of a rolled material, and the hardness is improved by further adding Ca, Ba and Te. In addition, the rolled sheet of the lead alloy is used in the positive current collector of the lead storage battery.

摘要:
Reduction of air resistance which acts on the conventional motor-driven blower is limited because crushed protrusions are formed on the surface of the plate of the impeller of the conventional motor-driven blower, and this air resistance is a significant impediment to an increase of the operating speed of the motor-driven blower. Thus, an impeller is provided which comprises a front plate having a suction opening, a back plate disposed opposite to the front plate, and a plurality of blades disposed between the front plate and the back plate. At least either the front plate or the back plate is formed integrally with the blades.

In a case of welding a highly neutron-irradiated austenitic stainless steel, the portion to be welded is heated under a condition of temperature and time in a predetermined range before welding. In this moment, chromium carbide (Cr.sub.23 C.sub.6) precipitates in the grain boundaries of the stainless steel. Welding is performed the state described above is obtained. Since, chromium carbide has been precipitated in the grain boundary by the heat treatment before welding, any helium atoms generated through nucleus conversion of Ni, are apt to be trapped with the chromium carbide, thereby reducing the number of gas bubbles formed by gathering the helium atoms in the grain boundaries. As a result, since decrease in the strength of the grain boundaries due to helium gas bubbles is moderated, it is possible to prevent occurrence of cracks during welding.
