The effect of chloride ions concentration on the electrochemical behavior of AISI 410 stainless steel in the simulated concrete pore (0.1 M NaOH + 0.1 M KOH) solution was investigated by various electrochemical methods such as Potentiodynamic polarization, Mott–Schottky analysis and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Potentiodynamic polarization curves revealed that increasing chlori...

In order to optimize the hot forming process of tool steels, further improvement of flow stress prediction and additional knowledge on hot deformability, especially at lower and upper limits of the hot working range, are required. The hot working ranges for these steels are very narrow as a consequence of the role of alloying elements, which form carbides. Carbides improve tool steel’s hardenab...

Strain-controlled fully reversed fatigue testing, or strain-life provides critical information on material lifetime and damage response. Strain-life data in hydrogen gas environments is missing the literature could provide valuable insights into effects mechanical response of metals such as steel. We adapted existing hydrogen-gas-environment mechanical-testing equipment, which had been designed...

In this study, electrochemical behaviour of passive films formed on AISI 316L stainless steel (AISI 316L) in three acidic solutions concentrations (0.3, 0.6, and 0.9M HNO3) under open circuit potential conditions were evaluated by potentiodynamic polarization, Mott–Schottky analysis and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The potentiodynamic polarization results showed that...
