Effect of Surface Treatment on Fatigue Strengthof Martensitic Type Stainless Steel SUS420J2

Characterization of a Laser Surface-Treated Martensitic Stainless Steel

Laser surface treatment was carried out on AISI 416 machinable martensitic stainless steel containing 0.225 wt.% sulfur. Nd:YAG laser with a 2.2-KW continuous wave was used. The aim was to compare the physical and chemical properties achieved by this type of selective surface treatment with those achieved by the conventional treatment. Laser power of different values (700 and 1000 W) with four ...

Electrochemical Characterization of a Martensitic Stainless Steel

This paper focused on the characterization of electrochemical behavior of a martensitic stainless steel in the acidic solutions. For this purpose, electrochemical parameters were derived from potentiodynamic polarization, Mott Schottky analysis and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The potentiodynamic polarization results showed that corrosion current density of AISI 420 ...

Chemical Surface Treatment of Stainless Steel

The Effect of Surface Treatment on Corrosion behavior of Surgical 316L Stainless Steel Implant

The AISI 316 L Stainless Steel (SS) specimens were exposed to passivation surface through two different processes including; holding in 40-vol% HNO3 at temperature of 60 ºC for 30 min and 15-vol%H2SO4 at ambient temperature for 1 hour. The corrosion behavior of specimens was evaluated in physiological solutions by electrochemical in vitro tests through linear an...

Thermoelectric Power Studies on a Martensitic Stainless Steel

In this work the different contributions to the thermoelectric power (TEP) measurement during the dissolution process of M23C6 carbides in an X45Cr13 stainless steel have been evaluated. Thus, the influences of carbon and chromium contents in solid solution in the austenite, the austenite grain boundaries and the microstructure on the TEP have been determined.
