AbstractSimulated weldments of AISI grade 304 stainless steel having a ferrite content of 4–6% with three levels of nitrogen ( 0·03, 0·08, and 0·11 wt-%) were prepared using a modified elemental implant technique. From these weldments, subsize Charpy impact specimens were prepared and subjected to aging treatment at different temperatures, 623–748 K, and for different times, 1000–5000 h. Impact toughness curves for these aged samples were generated by testing at various temperatures from 77 K to 300 K. From the impact curves the upper shelf energy (USE) and lower shelf energy (LSE) were determined. It was observed that both USE and LSE decreased with aging time at all temperatures. Nitrogen seems to offer a beneficial effect as far as impact toughness is concerned, as both USE and LSE values increased with increasing nitrogen content. The worst aging conditions were identified as 748 K, 2000 h at the lowest nitrogen level of 0·03 wt-%. An empirical relation connecting the aging temperature, aging time, and nitrogen content to the LSE was developed, which can be used to predict the time for embrittlement at a given nitrogen level and aging temperature. 相似文献

AbstractAISI 316L austenitic stainless steel was deformed at different strain and strain paths. The twin boundaries in the deformed microstructure had two possible origins: decay of original annealing twins and generation of deformation twins. Assuming that rotations of grains, specifically grains on both sides of a twin boundary, are responsible for the twin decay, a simple model was proposed to bring out the domain of relative twin generation. A biaxial strain path, in general, was associated with strong twin generation – an association or dependency linked to the texture estimated values of Taylor factor. Formation of strain induced martensite was also observed to be strain and strain path dependent and was more in biaxial strain path. 相似文献

AbstractPorous AISI 304L stainless steels were fabricated by a new powder metallurgy technique, based on the addition of oxide based ceramic powders. The mixture of AISI 304L stainless steel powders and oxide based ceramic powders was compacted using a hand press at a pressure of 294 or 490 MPa. The green compacts were sintered at 1150 or 1200°C for 3 h in Ar gas atmosphere. The addition of oxide based ceramic powders into AISI 304L stainless steel powders gave rise to porous AISI 304L stainless steels with fine pores. Also, the addition of the ceramic powders increased the hardness. 相似文献

AbstractInstrumented impact testing has been used to investigate the influence of the microstructure of the heat affected zone (HAZ) on the impact fracture behaviour of ASTM A105/AISI 304L friction weldments. The friction layer in the HAZ has been found to consist of two different parts. In the A105 side, a mechanically mixed layer made of bainite containing 304L 'protrusions' is present. The hardness of the bainite was found to increase as the friction pressure was decreased. In the 304L side, the friction layer was made of a thick shear band, formed by thermoplastic instability during welding. The impact fracture toughness was found to depend on both the crack nucleation and propagation stages, whose characteristics were related to the dynamic fracture toughness of the friction layers. 相似文献

AbstractThe regularly shaped parallel pore gas armed (GASAR) stainless steel porous material with a homogeneous size distribution of unusually micrometer scaled pores (2 μm in average) was successfully prepared using selective laser melting process, by adding 0·10 wt-% gas generating materials in the form of H3BO3 and KBF4. The adjustment of pore morphology, pore direction, and porosity was realised by changing material combinations (such as the content of additive materials) and processing conditions (such as the scan speed of laser beam). 相似文献

AbstractDegradation of AISI 410 martensitic stainless steel, a typical alloy for many applications such as steam turbine blade, could impair its efficiency and lifetime. To overcome this problem, critical surfaces could be modified by weld cladding via gas tungsten arc welding technique. In the present research, a comparative study of Stellite 21 weld overlays deposited in three different thicknesses, i.e. dilutions, at various preheat and post-weld heat treatment temperatures on the surface of AISI 410 martensitic stainless steel, has been made. The surface of coatings has been examined to reveal their microstructures, phase characterisation and mechanical properties using XRD, microhardness tester and metallographic techniques. The results showed that the deposition of Stellite 21 coating on AISI 410 martensitic stainless steel improved its corrosion resistance. Moreover, the volumetric dilution had a considerable effect on the hardness, microstructure and electrochemical corrosion behaviour of Stellite 21 weld overlays. 相似文献

AbstractThe vertical Bridgman directional solidification equipment has been used in several investigations to simulate direct chill casting of wrought aluminium alloys. As a basis for such investigations and alloy developments, it is important to have an understanding of the performance of the furnace used during simulation of the casting conditions. In this investigation the thermal conditions in the furnace have been analysed in detail, both by measurements and by mathematical modelling. The growth characteristics of the furnace, such as gradient, growth rates and cooling rates have been compared to conditions in large ingots. The direct chill casting conditions, which the simulations have been compared to, are casting of slabs of 330 and 600 mm thickness of an aluminium AA3003 type alloy. The results show that the experiments are able to simulate the cooling conditions in the ingots except from the surface zone. Comparisons of the microstructures have been made and a good agreement has been obtained for structure parameters such as grain size and DAS. 相似文献

AbstractThe present work aims at studying structure–property correlations in an explosively clad HSLA steel with austenitic stainless steel of AISI 304L grade. The clad plate was subjected to hot rolling followed by a quenching and tempering treatment to achieve better mechanical properties in the base plate. Optical microscopy studies revealed that the interface between the two steels was wavy in the as clad plate and the waviness decreased substantially due to hot rolling. Subsequent heat treatment has not shown any significant effect either. The base plate had tempered martensite/bainite structure in as clad or heat treated conditions and ferrite-pearlite-bainite structure in hot rolled condition. The grains were finer and elongated near the interface. The stainless steel exhibited equiaxed grain structure in as clad, hot rolled or heat treated plates. Tensile properties and charpy impact energy of the base plate were lowered due to hot rolling and then increased substantially due to heat treatment. The microhardness was observed to be a maximum at the bond interface for all three conditions studied. The shear bond strength was the highest in the as clad condition and decreased for the rolled as well as heat treated conditions. Scanning electron microscopy fractography on shear bond specimens revealed the presence of predominantly equiaxed dimples with few regions of rubbed fracture. Quantitative electron probe microanalysis across the bond interface indicated linear change in concentrations of nickel, chromium and manganese between the levels appropriate to the clad layer and base metal. 相似文献

AbstractThe influence of laser surface alloying (LSA) with Cr and Cr + Ni on the corrosion behaviour of type 304L stainless steel (SS) was investigated using potentiodynamic polarisation and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in chloride (0·5M NaCl) and acidic (1 N H2SO4) media. Surface alloying was carried out by laser cladding type 304L SS substrate with premixed powders of AISI type 316L SS and the desired alloying elements. The results indicated that Cr surface alloyed specimen exhibited a duplex (γ + α) microstructure with Cr content of ~24 wt-%, whereas Cr + Ni surface alloyed specimen was associated with austenitic microstructure with Cr and Ni contents of ~22 wt-% each. The potentiodynamic polarisation results in chloride solution indicated that LSA with Cr + Ni considerably enhanced the pitting corrosion resistance compared with LSA with Cr alone. In acidic media, such beneficial effects were not observed. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy results showed an increase in semicircle arc for both chloride and acidic media for both Cr and Cr + Ni clad samples indicating improvement in the oxide film stability compared with untreated specimen. The polarisation resistance was higher and capacitance values of the laser clad specimen were lower than those in the untreated specimen. The microstructural changes and compositional variations produced by LSA are correlated to the corrosion behaviour. 相似文献

AbstractSelf-propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS) is a process whereby reactants are ignited to spontaneously transform to products in an exothermic reaction. The aim of this study is to propose a method to join nickel aluminide with AISI 316 stainless steel by SHS and to study the combustion synthesis of nickel aluminide. From the heat of combustion synthesis junctions were formed between annular AISI 316 stainless steel and a powder metallurgy compact of Ni and Al blends. The Al mole ratio for testing the joining grade in the initial powder mixture varied from 25 at.-% to 40 at.-%. In order to check the sufficiency of the SHS reaction, the test temperature was compared with the thermodynamic calculation values. The metallographic analysis indicated that NiAl and Ni3Al were formed in the joint layer. 相似文献

The hot-rolled plates of AISI 304 stainless steel, containing edge cracks of different intensities, were examined. The austenitic matrix of the steel contained small amounts of ferrite inhomogeneously distributed across the width and the thickness of the plate. A correlation was found between ferrite content and edge cracking: the higher the ferrite content the longer the edge cracks. Among the chemical elements present in the steel, the most critical effect on ferrite content was exerted by carbon and nitrogen. The longest edge cracks were observed for plates with the lowest content of carbon and nitrogen. A possible contribution of steel chemistry and heating temperature to changes in the steel phase composition and the probability of edge cracking is discussed. 相似文献

Load relaxation of stainless steel Type AISI 304 near 563 K 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Load relaxation data reported by Anciaux, near 563 K, on mill-annealed Type AlSl 304 stainless steel are interpreted in terms of a general expression which describes stress relaxation as thermally activated dislocation motion over precipitates. Several physical parameters are obtained from the stress-strain rate curves and it is shown that for some stress relaxation curves the internal stress does not remain constant during the relaxation. 相似文献

AbstractThe present experimental and theoretical study investigates the effect of nickel on the phase balance and resulting properties of a 22Cr duplex stainless steel. The decrease in nickel was balanced by nitrogen and manganese additions. It was found that a minimum nickel content was required to maintain mechanical and corrosion properties at technically relevant levels. The influence of increasing nitrogen content on resulting phase composition and properties is discussed. 相似文献

AbstractThe microstructure of 8 μm diameter wire produced by the severe deformation of 316L austenitic stainless steel has been examined using TEM and X-ray diffraction. The deformation imparted amounts to a true strain of 6·3. Data from previous studies on strain induced transformation of this steel have been combined with new results to show that true strains >2 are required in order to observe mechanical stabilisation, i.e. the cessation of martensitic transformation when the martensite/austenite interfaces are unable to propagate through the dislocation debris created in the austenite. 相似文献

AbstractIn the present work, three types of ferritic stainless steel sheets AISI 430A (16%Cr), AISI 430E (16%Cr, 0·36%Nb) and AISI 434 (16%Cr, 1%Mo), known to display different ridging behaviours, were characterised in both microstructure and texture using optical metallography and electron backscatter diffraction techniques. It was concluded that surface microridging is a result of the differential plastic behaviour of {111}〈uvw〉 and {001}〈uvw〉 grain colonies existing in the sheet; severe ridging (undulations) is a consequence of through thickness texture and microstructure inhomogeneities that lead to grain buckling under internal compressive stresses. 相似文献

AbstractThe present paper investigates completely reversed room temperature low cycle fatigue (LCF) behaviour of solution annealed austenitic stainless steel AISI 316L with two different grain sizes of 90 and 139 μm developed by solution annealing treatment at 1050 and 1150°C respectively and at six strain amplitudes ranging between ± 0·375 and ± 1·00%. Complete cyclic hardening has been observed for both the grain sizes. While fine grained steel shows an improvement in cyclic life compared with that of coarse grained steel for strain amplitudes ± 0·375 and ± 0·50%, and perfectly follows the Coffin–Manson (C–M) behaviour within the experimental domain, higher cyclic life with bilinear C–M behaviour is observed in the case of coarse grained steel at ± 0·625% strain amplitude and above. Optical microscopy of fatigue fracture surfaces reveals the formation of martensite on cyclic straining predominantly at higher strain amplitudes. 相似文献

AbstractThe use of a single, accurate, and relatively quick experimental method suitable for determination of crystallo graphic texture and amounts of phases in the final product is of interest to some manufacturers. The suitability of an X-ray method for this purpose is evaluated in the present paper. The Schulz back reflection technique has been used to record incomplete pole figures of ferrite and austenite in a sample of commercial duplex stainless steel tube. The orientation distribution function was calculated for each phase and then used for the reproduction of complete pole figures. The complete pole figures were applied in quantitative phase analysis (QPhA), by a new method, free from texture induced errors. For comparison, the volume fraction of austenite and ferrite was also determined by means of the classic direct comparison method of Averbach and Cohen as well as by standard quantitative metallography. The proposed method of QPhA was applied for the examination of the amount of retained austenite in certain bearing construction elements. 相似文献

The microstructural evolution during abnormal grain growth (secondary recrystallization) in 304L stainless steel was studied in a wide range of annealing temperatures and times. At relatively low temperatures, the grain growth mode was identified as normal. However, at homologous temperatures between 0.65 (850 °C) and 0.7 (900 °C), the observed transition in grain growth mode from normal to abnormal, which was also evident from the bimodality in grain size distribution histograms, was detected to be caused by the dissolution/coarsening of carbides. The microstructural features such as dispersed carbides were characterized by optical metallography, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, and microhardness. Continued annealing to a long time led to the completion of secondary recrystallization and the subsequent reappearance of normal growth mode. Another instance of abnormal grain growth was observed at homologous temperatures higher than 0.8, which may be attributed to the grain boundary faceting/defaceting phenomenon. It was also found that when the size of abnormal grains reached a critical value, their size will not change too much and the grain growth behavior becomes practically stagnant. 相似文献

AbstractThe nucleation and development of dynamic recrystallisation (DRX) has been studied via hot torsion testing of AISI 304 stainless steel. The DRX behaviour was investigated with microstructural analysis and slope changes of flow stress curves. The characteristics of serrated grain boundaries observed by SEM, electron backscattered diffraction and TEM indicated that the nucleated DRX grain size was similar to that of the bulged part of the original grain boundary. The DRX of the alloy was nucleated and developed by strain induced grain boundary migration and by the necklace mechanism. Before the steady state in the flow curve at 1000 ° C and 0.5 s-1, the dynamically recrystallised grains did not remain a constant size and gradually grew to the size of fully DRX grains at steady state (30 μm). The calculation of the grain size was based on X DRX (volume fraction of dynamically recrystallisation) under the assumption that the nucleated DRX grains grow to the steady state continuously. It was found that the calculated grain size of the alloy was good agreement with that of the observed grain size. It is expected that a fine grained steel can be obtained by controlling hot deformation conditions on the basis of newly developed equations for predicting DRX behaviour. 相似文献

In the comparison of the solidification characteristics of supercooling directional solidification (SDS) with constrained directional solidification (DS) and with the consideration of the inheritance of supercooled melt, the SDS technique established with the combination of melt supercooling and traditional DS was proposed. An exploring study on SDS techniques was also conducted using appropriate facilities, designed and manufactured by the authors’ laboratory and the deep supercooling of Cu–5.0%Ni alloy, and its DSs were implemented. 相似文献
