Chemical composition
The chemical composition of the alloy is divided into three categories: standard composition, high-quality composition, and high-purity composition, as shown in Table 1-1. High-quality components reduce carbon and increase niobium on the basis of standard components, thereby reducing the number of niobium carbides, reducing the number of fatigue sources and strengthening phases, increasing the content of anti-fatigue, and improving the purity and comprehensive properties of the material.
The GH4169 alloy for nuclear energy applications needs to control the content of boron (other elements remain unchanged). When ω(B)≤0.002%, in order to distinguish it from the GH4169 alloy used in the aerospace industry, the alloy grade is GH4169A.

Heat treatment system
Alloys have different heat treatment regimes to control grain size, control delta phase morphology, distribution and quantity to obtain different levels of mechanical properties. Alloy heat treatment system is divided into 3 categories:
: (1010~1065)ºC±10ºC, 1h, oil cooling, air cooling or water cooling +720ºC±5ºC, 8h, furnace cooling at 50ºC/h to 620ºC±5ºC, 8h, air cooling.
The grains of the materials treated by this system are coarsened, and there is no delta phase in the grain boundaries and in the grains, and there is notch sensitivity, but it is beneficial to improve the impact performance and resist low-temperature hydrogen embrittlement.
: (950~980)ºC±10ºC, 1h, oil cooling, air cooling or water cooling +720ºC±5ºC, 8h, furnace cooling at 50ºC/h to 620ºC±5ºC, 8h, air cooling.
: 720°C±5°C, 8h, furnace cooling at 50°C/h to 620°C±5°C, 8h, air cooling.
After this system treatment, the delta phase in the material is less, which can improve the strength and impact performance of the material. This system is also known as the direct aging heat treatment system.
