Abstract

The microstructure and pitting behavior in the simulated atmospheric environments of three Cr-Mn-Ni-N metastable austenitic stainless steels (MASSs) with different alloying element contents were investigated through electron back scatter diffraction (EBSD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), electrochemical measurements techniques and wet-dry cyclic corrosion test (CCT). The increase of Cr, Mn, Ni, N and Cu contents enhances the austenite stability and results in forming fewer mechanical twins, martensites and dislocation pile-ups for the steels with 10 % cold rolling reduction. The higher contents of Cr and N facilitate the formation of Cr₂O₃ and NH₄⁺ species in the passive films and then increase the pitting resistance of the steels. The average quantity, depth and width of the pits formed after the wet-dry CCT gradually decrease for the steels from 14Cr10Mn to 16Cr6Mn and 18Cr6Mn under the joint effect of microdefects and alloying elements.

期刊介绍： Materials Characterization features original articles and state-of-the-art reviews on theoretical and practical aspects of the structure and behaviour of materials. The Journal focuses on all characterization techniques, including all forms of microscopy (light, electron, acoustic, etc.,) and analysis (especially microanalysis and surface analytical techniques). Developments in both this wide range of techniques and their application to the quantification of the microstructure of materials are essential facets of the Journal. The Journal provides the Materials Scientist/Engineer with up-to-date information on many types of materials with an underlying theme of explaining the behavior of materials using novel approaches. Materials covered by the journal include: Metals & Alloys Ceramics Nanomaterials Biomedical materials Optical materials Composites Natural Materials.
