The as-received Alloy 617 which was solution-treated from a manufacturer had a mean grain size of 80-100 μm with Mo-rich M6 C primary carbide stringers parallel to rolling direction. Standard specimen containing straight GBs 3 Proprietary heat treatment • Alloy 617 had serrated GBs decorated with thick planar M23 C6 . The samples were solution-annealed at 1200 ℃ for 10 min and slow-cooled to 800 ℃ at a cooling rate of 5 ℃/min, subsequently aged for 2 h at the same temperature. Serrated GBs 4 Slow cooling process When a specimen was cooled from 1200 ℃ to 1100 ℃ at 5 ℃/min. The GB began to be wavy 5 6 Tensile strain of 5% at room temperature A cylindrical specimen of 6 mm gauge diameter and 25 mm gauge length was employed for creep test with the condition of 960 ℃/30 MPa in air. Cold work treatment was carried out by loading the heattreated specimen to a tensile strain of 5% at room temperature with a strain rate of 5× 10−4 /s before creep tests. Results and Discussion Alloy 617 950℃/30MPa/Air Alloy 617 950℃/30MPa/Air 8 Showing longitudinal sections near the fractured surfaces after creep at 950 ℃/30 MPa Fig a-c corresponds to Pt-passivated area for machining TEM foil by FIB system.

TEM analysis on the serrated GB without precipitates indicated that the fundamental driving force for the GB serration stems from lowering interfacial free energy of GB per unit area. The serrated GBs with fine/stable intragranular carbides ensured 2.8 times better creep resistance due to their significant contribution to GB strengthening. 11 Thanks for your attention! 12
