热处理工艺对17-4PH钢耐海水腐蚀性能的影响

运用极化曲线、循环极化曲线等电化学方法研究了17-4PH钢经不同工艺热处理后的耐海水腐蚀性能,并对腐蚀形貌和显微组织进行了观察和分析。结果表明:该不锈钢经固溶+调整处理后,在520℃时效4 h时可获最佳的耐海水腐蚀性能,且综合力学性能优良。在一定的温度和时间区间内,随着时效温度的升高及时效时间的延长,马氏体板条呈逐步细化的趋势且晶间析出物逐渐增多。在不同温度及时间的时效处理过程中,富Cu沉淀相的析出、长大及逆转变奥氏体的产生是导致其耐蚀性产生差异的主要原因。     

17-4PH不锈钢热处理工艺

介绍了不同的热处理工艺对17-4PH马氏体沉淀硬化不锈钢力学性能及组织的影响,对其沉淀硬化机理进行了总结和探讨。17-4PH不锈钢兼有强度高、耐蚀性好的优点。传统的工艺为固溶+时效处理,普遍采用的固溶温度为1040℃,随着时效温度的提高和时效时间的延长,其强度和硬度升高,塑韧性降低。在传统工艺的基础上,增加调整处理,可以细化马氏体基体组织,提高材料的韧性及耐蚀性。对于17-4PH钢的强化机理,普遍认为与ε-Cu的析出有关,但对于其形貌的分析不尽相同。

Influence of initial heat treatment of 17-4 PH stainless steel on gas nitriding kinetics

Results of the investigation of nitrided layers on 17-4 PH type precipitation hardening stainless steel are presented in this paper. The layers have been produced in the process of gas nitriding in a partly dissociated ammonia at temperatures between 410 and 570 °C. Hydrogen chloride admixture to active atmosphere was used as a surface activator. Structure of the nitrided layers were examined using scanning and transmission electron microscopy, X-ray microanalysis (EDX and WDX), and X-ray diffraction. The influence of the initial steel heat treatment on the nitriding kinetics has been considered. 17-4 PH stainless steel was nitrided at various heat treatment conditions, i.e. after solution treatment or ageing at different temperatures. The influence of precipitation processes taking place during the heat treatment before nitriding on the diffusive process kinetics was proven. It was found that, that increasing of steel ageing temperature up to 600 °C before nitriding effects on an increasing of the nitriding kinetics.     

The corrosion and corrosion-wear behaviour of plasma nitrided 17-4PH precipitation hardening stainless steel

Plasma surface nitriding of 17-4 PH martensitic precipitation hardening stainless steels was conducted at 350 °C, 420 °C and 500 °C for 10 h using a DC plasma nitriding unit, and the surface properties of the plasma surface engineered samples were systematically evaluated. Experimental results have shown that the surface properties of the plasma nitrided layers in terms of hardness, wear resistance, corrosion behaviour and corrosion-wear resistance are highly process condition dependent, and it is feasible to provide considerable improvement in wear, corrosion and corrosion-wear resistance of 17-4PH steel using optimised plasma treatment conditions. All three treatments can effectively improve the surface hardness and the sliding wear resistance under unlubricated conditions; high temperature (420 °C and 500 °C) treated materials revealed improved corrosion and corrosion-wear properties due to the formation of surface compound layers.     

Microstructure and wear behavior of stellite 6 cladding on 17-4 PH stainless steel

This paper deals with the investigation of the microstructure and wear behavior of the stellite 6 cladding on precipitation hardening martensitic stainless steel (17-4PH) using gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) method. 17-4 PH stainless steel is widely used in oil and gas industries. Optical metallography, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) were employed to study the microstructure and wear mechanisms. X-ray diffraction analysis was also used to identify phases formed in the coating. The results showed that the microstructure of the surface layer consisted of carbides embedded in a Co-rich solid solution with a dendritic structure. In addition, the dendritic growth in the coating was epitaxial. Primary phases formed during the process were Co (fcc), Co (hcp), lamellar eutectic phases, M₂₃C₆ and Cr₇C₃ type carbides. The results of the wear tests indicated that the delamination was the dominant mechanism. So, it is necessary to apply an inter-layer between the substrate and top coat.
