Corrosion Behavior of Passivated CUSTOM450 and AM350 Stainless Steels for Aeronautical Applications

Stress Corrosion Cracking Resistance of Martensitic Stainless Steels for Transmutation Applications

Effect of Secondary Phase Precipitation on the Corrosion Behavior of Duplex Stainless Steels

Duplex stainless steels (DSSs) with austenitic and ferritic phases have been increasingly used for many industrial applications due to their good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance in acidic, caustic and marine environments. However, DSSs are susceptible to intergranular, pitting and stress corrosion in corrosive environments due to the formation of secondary phases. Such phases are...

Corrosion Behavior of Stainless Steel Clad Rebar

Stainless steel clad rebar (SCR) was investigated because it may become a cost-effective means of controlling corrosion in concrete under very aggressive environments. Sound SCR (316L cladding) resisted corrosion in saturated Ca(OH)2 solution (SCS) with up to 5 wt% chloride. Cladding breaks on SCR induced significant corrosion of exposed underlying CS in SCS with only 1 wt% chloride. A computer...

Properties of super stainless steels for orthodontic applications.

Orthodontic stainless-steel appliances are considered to be corrosion resistant, but localized corrosion can occur in the oral cavity. This study was undertaken to evaluate the properties of super stainless steels in orthodontic applications. Accordingly, the metallurgical properties, mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, amount of the released nickel, cytotoxicity, and characteristics o...

Next Generation Vehicle: Stainless Steels for automotive lightweight applications

The objectives of the NGV (Next Generation Vehicle) Project were to demonstrate that stainless steel can be used to reduce weight and costs, and to improve safety and sustainability in structural automotive systems. The deliverables include enabling technologies, virtual technology for design and development, processing and testing. The compilation of the results as well as aspects such as new ...
