Temper Embrittlement
When CrMo base material and the weld
metal is exposed to a temperature range of
400-500C for a very long time there is a
risk of Temper Embrittlement. This type
of embrittlement is caused by trace elements as P, Sb, Sn and As that migrate to the

Figure 3 shows a very heavy wall examto be taken to safeguard the base material,
the weldmetal and the heat affected zone ple of a pipe connection of a live-steam pipe
(HAZ).Recent developments in P22V, P23, of P91 base material in a Power Station.
P24, P92 and VM 12-SHC have
governed more detailed and precise welding and production procedures to retain control over the
outcome of the final product. Although these materials are not as
forgiving as the basic CrMo steel,
the weldability is excellent when
the correct procedures are followed. Depending on the application, there can be requirements
for STC and Bruscatos X- factor.
