### **Product Introduction: ASTM A387/A387M Alloy Steel, Grade 7, Class 2**
**1. Overview**
ASTM A387 Grade 7 Class 2 is a chromium-molybdenum (Cr-Mo) alloy steel plate specifically designed for service in welded pressure vessels and other high-temperature applications. This grade is known for its excellent strength and resistance to oxidation and corrosion at elevated temperatures, typically up to about 600°C (1112°F). The "Class 2" designation indicates that the material is supplied in the normalized and tempered heat treatment condition, which provides an optimal combination of high strength and good toughness.
**2. Key International Standards**
* **Primary Standard:** **ASTM A387/A387M** - Standard Specification for Pressure Vessel Plates, Alloy Steel, Chromium-Molybdenum.
* This standard covers the chemical, mechanical, and heat treatment requirements.
* **Dimensional Standards:**
* **ASTM A20/A20M** - Standard Specification for General Requirements for Steel Plates for Pressure Vessels. This provides supplementary requirements for testing, inspection, tolerances, etc.
* **Equivalent Standards:**
* **EN / DIN:** 16Mo3 (A comparable European grade, though not an exact equivalent).
* **JIS:** SCMV 28 (Japanese standard for Cr-Mo steel for pressure vessels).
**3. Chemical Composition (Weight %)**
The chemical composition is a critical factor in achieving the desired high-temperature properties. The ladle analysis must conform to the following limits:
| Element | Composition (%) |
| :--- | :--- |
| Carbon (C) | 0.05 - 0.17 |
| Manganese (Mn) | 0.40 - 0.65 |
| Phosphorus (P), max | 0.025 |
| Sulfur (S), max | 0.025 |
| Silicon (Si) | 0.50 - 0.80 |
| Chromium (Cr) | 1.90 - 2.60 |
| Molybdenum (Mo) | 0.87 - 1.13 |
*Note: Trace elements may be restricted by customer requirements or supplementary standards.*
**4. Mechanical & Physical Properties**
The mechanical properties are guaranteed in the normalized and tempered condition.
**Mechanical Properties (at room temperature):**
| Property | Value |
| :--- | :--- |
| Tensile Strength | 485 - 620 MPa (70 - 90 ksi) |
| Yield Strength (min) | 275 MPa (40 ksi) |
| Elongation in 2 in. (50 mm), (min) | 22% |
| **Hardness (typical)** | **~145-190 HB** |
**Approximate Physical Properties:**
* **Density:** 7.86 g/cm³ (0.284 lb/in³)
* **Melting Point:** ~ 1425 - 1520 °C (2600 - 2770 °F)
* **Modulus of Elasticity:** 200 GPa (29 x 10⁶ psi)
* **Thermal Conductivity:** ~ 36.0 W/m·K (at 100°C)
* **Coefficient of Thermal Expansion:** ~ 11.5 x 10⁻⁶ /K (20-100°C)
*Note: Physical properties can vary with temperature and should be verified for specific design calculations.*
**5. Product Applications**
ASTM A387 Gr 7 Cl 2 is predominantly used in the construction of pressure vessels and components that operate in high-temperature and/or high-pressure hydrogen service. Its key applications include:
* **Petroleum Refining:** Hydrocracking reactors, hydrotreating reactors, and high-pressure separators.
* **Chemical & Petrochemical Plants:** Reactors and vessels exposed to corrosive environments at elevated temperatures.
* **Power Generation:** Boiler drums, steam drums, and high-temperature pressure parts in fossil fuel power plants.
* **Oil & Gas Industry:** Equipment for synthesis gas and ammonia production.
**6. Key Characteristics & Advantages**
* **High-Temperature Strength:** Maintains structural integrity and creep resistance under sustained loads at high temperatures.
* **Hydrogen Resistance:** The chromium and molybdenum content provides good resistance to hydrogen embrittlement and hydrogen attack (as defined by the Nelson Curve in API RP 941).
* **Weldability:** It has good weldability, though it requires pre-heating and post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) to prevent cracking and restore the mechanical properties in the heat-affected zone (HAZ).
* **Toughness:** The normalized and tempered heat treatment ensures a fine-grained microstructure with adequate toughness.
In summary, **ASTM A387 Grade 7 Class 2** is a high-performance, heat-treated chromium-molybdenum alloy steel plate that is an industry standard for critical high-temperature and high-pressure applications in the energy and chemical processing sectors.
