Abstract

A phase-field model coupled with polycrystalline microstructure is utilized to investigate the effect of grain size and grain boundary types on intergranular stress corrosion cracking in austenitic stainless steels. Considering the dilute solution environment, the free energy density of the two phases is hypothesized to be in parabolic form. The slower corrosion crack propagation rate in coarse-grained microstructures can be attributed to a higher frequency of transgranular cracking. Low-angle grain boundaries can effectively deflect intergranular corrosion cracks into grains with lower corrosion susceptibility, thereby impeding crack propagation. Twin boundaries mitigate corrosion crack propagation by reducing potential initiation sites.

晶粒尺寸和晶界类型对奥氏体不锈钢晶间应力腐蚀开裂的影响：相场研究

本研究利用与多晶微观结构相耦合的相场模型来研究晶粒尺寸和晶界类型对奥氏体不锈钢晶间应力腐蚀开裂的影响。考虑到稀溶液环境，假设两相的自由能密度呈抛物线形式。粗晶粒微结构中的腐蚀裂纹扩展速度较慢，这是因为跨晶粒开裂的频率较高。低角度晶界能有效地将晶间腐蚀裂纹偏转到腐蚀敏感性较低的晶粒中，从而阻碍裂纹扩展。双晶界通过减少潜在的起始点来减缓腐蚀裂纹的扩展。
