Abstract
The effects of grain boundary carbides on the tensile and impact properties of Inconel 600 at 25 and -196 degreesC were studied. Unlike the type 316 s tainless steel which can be severely embrittled, grain boundary carbides ca use only a significant loss in the reduction of area, but, otherwise, littl e effect on other tensile properties. Deep grain boundary cracks are observ ed on the fracture surfaces. Charpy V-notch impact specimens are not comple tely fractured, even at -196 degreesC in samples with grain boundary carbid es.
