12Cr1MoVG is a low-alloy heat-resistant steel that is commonly used in the construction of boilers, pressure vessels, and piping systems operating at elevated temperatures and pressures. It is characterized by its high creep resistance, good thermal conductivity, and excellent corrosion resistance. The "12" in its designation indicates the percentage of chromium in its composition, while "1" and "Mo" represent the presence of molybdenum and vanadium, respectively. This steel is widely used in various industries where high-temperature and high-pressure conditions are present, making it suitable for applications in power generation, petrochemical, and chemical processing.
12Cr1MoV steel is normalized and tempered at high temperatures, where its normal metal organization includes ferrite and pearlite (or local bainite). Compared with the same type of low-alloy pearlitic heat-resistant steel, 12Cr1MoV shows better processability and much higher thermal strength.

Compared with 12CrMoV steel, this steel has higher oxidation resistance and thermal strength. The creep limit of the steel is very close to the value of the endurance strength, and it has high plasticity under the condition of the endurance tension. The technology and weldability of the steel are good, but the preheating is required to 300℃ before welding, and the stress is removed after welding.
It is a kind of steel widely used in superheater, header and main steam pipe of high pressure, ultra high pressure, subcritical power station boiler. At 580℃, it still has high thermal strength, oxidation resistance and durable plasticity. The production process is simple and the welding performance is good, but it is sensitive to the normalizing cooling speed. Long-term use at 580℃ will result in the second kind of temper brittleness caused by the segregation of phosphorus and other impurities at grain boundary. Long–term use will also appear pearlite spherification.
All of them are pearlite type heat-resistant steel, which has high tissue stability and thermal strength when used in high temperature for a long time. Compared with 12Cr1MoV steel, Cr content is higher, with higher oxidation resistance and thermal strength. Creep limit is close to the endurance strength value and has higher plasticity under the condition of endurance tension. The technology and weldability of the steel are good, but the preheating is required to 300℃ before welding, and the stress is removed after welding.

Alloy steels are made by combining carbon steel with one or several alloying elements, such as manganese, silicon, nickel, titanium, copper, chromium and aluminum. These metals are added to produce specific properties that are not found in regular carbon steel. The elements are added in varying proportions (or combinations) making the material take on different aspects such as increased hardness, increased corrosion resistance, increased strength, improved formability (ductility); the weldability can also change.
