one of the problems in the case of stainless steels is their low corrosion resistance against pitting corrosionin chloride containing environments, thereby leading to severe damage to industries. in this research, the pitting corrosion of 304 austenitic stainless steel was studied in 3.5% nacl solution at room temperature (25˚c) by performing electrochemical measurements (containing cyclic pola...

The polarisation characteristics of the electropolishing process in a magnetic field (MEP – magnetoelectropolishing), in comparison with those obtained under standard/conventional process (EP) conditions, have been obtained. The occurrence of an EP plateau has been observed in view of the optimization of MEP process. Up-to-date stainless steel surface studies always indicated some amount of fre...

The current work was carried out to characterize welding of AISI 310 austenitic stainless steel to Inconel 657 nickel-chromium superalloy. The welds were produced using four types of filler materials; the nickel-based corresponding to Inconel 82, Inconel A, Inconel 617 and austenitic stainless steels 310. Of the two joints involved, this paper describes the choice of welding consumables for the...

One of the problems in the case of stainless steels is their low corrosion resistance against pitting corrosion in chloride containing environments, thereby leading to severe damage to industries. In this research, the pitting corrosion of 304 austenitic stainless steel was studied in 3.5% NaCl solution at room temperature (25˚C) by performing electrochemical measurements (containing cyclic pol...

For modern creep-resistant steels, ductility is primarily controlled by cavitation, since brittle rupture dominating during long-term service. In recent years, the present authors have formulated fundamental models for nucleation and growth of cavities that been verified to be able describe experiments austenitic stainless steels. These equations, together with dislocation creep, are used in th...

Allegheny Ludlum Type 316Ti (UNS S31635) is a titanium stabilized version of Type 316 molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel. It is also known as DIN/EN designation No. 1.4571. The Type 316 alloys are more resistant to general corrosion and pitting/crevice corrosion than the conventional chromium-nickel austenitic stainless steels such as Type 304. They also offer higher creep, stress-ru...
