The corrosion behaviour of S32101 duplex and 410 martensitic stainless steel was studied through weight loss and potentiodynamic polarization in 1–6 M HCl solutions. Results show that S32101 steel has significantly lower corrosion rates than 410 steel from both tests at all concentrations with highest values of 0.04586 mm/y and 0.234 mm/y in comparison to martensitic steel with corrosion rates ...

The effects of boron on the grain boundary and surface energies in iron at 900 and 1000 OC and AISI 316 stainless steel in the temperature range 950-1 250 OC were investigated. It was found that boron reduced these energies in a manner typical of an element with low solubility in the matrix. It has been found that boron improves the grain boundary strength of iron at low temperatures [I] and in...

The TiO2–SiO2 thin films were deposited on AISI 316L stainless steel via sol-gel method. Then, the effect of the added amount of SiO2 on the structure, morphology and mechanical properties of the films and corrosion behavior of AISI 316L stainless steel substrate were investigated. So, X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, depth-sensing indenta...

Poros turbin merupakan komponen yang mentransformasikan energi kinetik uap menjadi mekanis, dan mentransmisikan daya atau torsi ke poros generator. didesain untuk mampu menerima beban-beban saat beroperasi pada fluktuasi siklus tertentu. Material digunakan adalah stainless steel karena bekerja kondisi lingkungan korosif. Tujuan penelitian ini membuat pemodelan melakukan optimasi desain generato...

The lifetime of structural components of spallation targets (beam window, liquid metal container, return hull) is determined by the irradiation-induced changes of the mechanical properties of their materials. An extensive test program was initiated using specimens obtained from spent target components from operating spallation facilities (Los Alamos Neutron Science Center, LANSCE and the Spalla...

In this paper, dissimilar resistance spot welding of AISI 1075 eutectoid steel to AISI 201 stainless steel is investigated experimentally. For this purpose, the experiments are designed using response surface methodology and based on four-factor, five-level central composite design. The effects of process parameters such as welding current, welding time, cooling time and electrode force are inv...

Long–term stability and oxidation resistance of AISI 439 ferritic stainless steel used as interconnects in solid oxide fuel cells can be improved by use of a protective coating. In this study the pack cementation method was employed to coat AISI 439 ferritic stainless steel with manganese. Isothermal oxidation was conducted at 800 ºC for 200 hours in static air to investigate the role of coatin...

In this paper, the nucleation and growth of diamond/diamond-like coatings on austenitic (AISI 316) and ferritic (AISI 430) stainless steel substrates have been investigated using torch technique. The effects of substrate surface preparation has also been studied. The quality of coatings produced has been examined using optical and scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectros...
