in the present study, the corrosion behavior of aisi 347 austenitic stainless steel to astm a335 low alloysteel dissimilar joint was investigated. for this purpose, two filler metals, er309l and ernicr-3, were selected to be used during the gas tungsten arc welding process. to investigate the corrosion behavior of the joints after welding, the specimens were tested in 3.5% sodium chloride solut...

Electron BackScatter Diffraction (EBSD) in conjunction with Field-Emission Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy (FEG-ESEM) has been used to evaluate the microstructural and local plastic strain evolution in different alloys (AISI 1005, AISI 304L and Duplex 2205) deformed by a single-stage cold and warm forging process. The present work is aimed to describe the different behavior of the au...

Stainless steel has been employed in many engineering applications ranging from pharmaceutical equipment to piping in the nuclear reactors and storage to chemical products. In this attempt, simulation of fatigue crack growth based on experimental results of austenitic stainless steel 304L was presented using AFGROW code when NASGRO mode laws adopted. Double through crack at hole specimen is use...

The present work has been carried out to study the sensitization behavior of AISI 304L austenitic stainless steel weld, fabricated using GTAW (gas tungsten arc welding process). This weld was subjected to post weld thermal aging (PWTA) treatments lying in the sensitization range, viz. 700 ?C for 30 minutes, 500 minutes and 1000 minutes for studying the influence of carbide precipitation on thei...

Mature passive films (age > 10 s) were grown in aerated saturated calcium hydroxide solution, at the open circuit, on plain steel and alloys with 9% and 22% Cr, as well as austenitic stainless steels. The materials were commercially produced concrete reinforcing steels. Differences in the polarization of the oxygen reduction reaction were evidenced. Oxygen reduction rates at moderate cathodic p...

Original scientific paper In this paper, influence of flame spraying and fusing on microstructure of substrates made from heat treated carbon steel C45, a heat treated low alloyed 42CrMo4 steel and stainless austenitic steel X6CrNiMo18-10-2, has been investigated. Flame spraying and fusing is a deposition technique commonly applied to nickel-base self-fluxing alloys (NiCrBSi alloys). Because of...

Several alloys described as stainless steel which resist tarnish and corrosion in the mouth are being used for a variety of dental appliances and instruments. Probably the greatest application of stainless steel is for orthodontic arch wires and bands, while a more limited use is for temporary space maintainers and crown forms. Root-canal files and reamers designed for endodontic operations als...

The monotonic and cyclic deformation behavior of ultrafine-grained metastable austenitic steel AISI 304L, produced by severe plastic deformation, was investigated. Under monotonic loading, the martensitic phase transformation in the ultrafine-grained state is strongly favored. Under cyclic loading, the martensitic transformation behavior is similar to the coarse-grained condition, but the cycli...

This work focuses on the ultrasonic characterization and hardness of Austenitic stainless steel in thermal variation. The sample which was heat treated at 1050 o C has the highest hardness value and plays a dominant role in dispersion of carbides. Shear wave velocity and hardness show similar trend in variation with temperature. The effect of volume expansion would be to decrease the elastic co...

In some austenitic stainless steel welds grains orientations cause deviation and splitting of the ultrasonic beam. It is especially true in the case of multipass welds when the remelting process after each pass causes complex solidification process. With the new model MINA (Modelling anisotropy from Notebook of Arc welding) we show that we are able to predict thoroughly grains orientations. Thi...
