The results revealed that Cu addition caused high temperature oxidation resistance to deteriorate. High tempera ture oxidation rates increased and scale/steel interface configuration became complicated due to Cu addition. Scale/ steel interface appeared to be network above certain temperature. Temperature required to form network scale/steel interface dropped more than 100 ℃ for 1.5% Cu-containing steel. （Fe,Ni,Cu）x Oy in inner oxidation layer dissocia ted to Fe-Ni-Cu phase and released active oxygen which can react with base steel easily. So the inner oxidation layer became the second source of oxidizing agent besides atmosphere. Internal stress at austenite grain boundary caused local oxide to fragment. So the scale/steel interface appeared to be network. Liquid Si-rich phase formed at sufficient ly high temperature. Penetration of the liquid Si-rich phase along austenite grain enhanced austenite grain oxidizing.展开更多

Mechanical properties of 5Cr21Mn9Ni4N steels withont RE addition and with RE added by 0. 2% in mass percent were tested respectively. The results indicate that the solid solution amount of RE is about 10^-6 -10^-5 order of magnitude in 5Cr21Mn9Ni4N steel. Dendrite of as-cast condition is refined obviously and dimension of interstitial phase is shortened when RE is added by 0.10%-0.20%. But the microstructure will be coarser if surplus RE is added. Precipitated phase under finished product state distributes evenly in nearly same size with RE added by 0. 2% which leads to a largely improved high temperature mechanical property.展开更多

The results indicate that oxidation exponent n and oxidation activation energy are increased, and oxidation velocity constant kp is decreased when 0.2% RE is added in 5Cr21Mn9Ni4N steel. The addition of RE elements does not alter phase constitution of oxidation scale, however it improves the configuration of oxidation scale, and increases thermal stability and adhesivity of oxidation scale, which results in the raise of oxidation resistance of 5Cr21Mn9Ni4N steel at high temperature. The oxidation scale constitutes of refractory steel transfer from manganic oxide mostly to ferric oxide mostly with the increase of temperature, which leads to descend of compactness and desquamation resistance of oxidation scale. The mass increase of ferric oxide in the oxidation scale and the looseness of oxidation scale are the main reason to descend the oxidation resistance of refractory steel.展开更多

The coating layer will not only reduce the depth of the formed Ni-enriched entanglement at high temperature but also have an excellent ability to resist oxidation of the 9Ni steel. Compared to bare specimen, the depths of the entanglement of the coated 9Ni specimen could be successfully reduced by 74.1% and the oxidation loss be decreased by 62.3% by heating at 1 250 ℃ for 60 min. In addition, the coated specimen indicates no trace of oxide pegs. It proves that the coating has outstanding improvement to internal oxidation resistance. Some characterization methods such as metalloscopy, XRD, XPS, SEM and EDX have been used to reveal a possible protective mechanism. The result shows that the coating layer reacts with the iron oxide to form Mg Fe2O4 on the surface of the coated specimen, which could provide a smaller diffusion coefficient rate of Fe ion. The coating with a low cost and easy implementation is promisingly applicable in the slab-reheating process of the 9Ni steel.展开更多

Based on engineering bionics, samples of bionic non-smooth surfaces of stainless steel 0Crl 8Ni9 were manufactured in the form of reseau structure by laser multiple processing. The mechanical properties (including microhardness, residual stress, surface roughness) and microstructure of the samples treated by laser multiple processing were compared with those of the samples without LSP The results show that the mechanical properties of these samples by laser multiple processing were clearly improved in comparison with those of the samples without LSP The mechanisms underlying the improved surface microhardness and surface residual stress were analyzed, and the relations between hardness, comnressive residual stress and roughness were also presented.展开更多

The effect of increasing the solubility of boron element in the austenitic matrix favours the hardness enhancement by 8.54%.High boron stainless steel has excellent wear resistance in corrosive environment.Lifetime of transfer pipe made of high boron-containing stainless steel is 1.5-1.8 times longer than that of boron-free 1Cr18Ni9Ti stainless steel.展开更多

Austenite-rich and ferrite-rich bands are formed during soaking because of the re-distribu- tion of elements of C,N and Ni.The former phase is enriched of Ni,Mn,C and N,while the latter one is relatively pure.Part of the austenite formed at intermediate temperatures trans- forms into martensite when the steel is cooled down to room temperature.The complex struc- ture which consists of fine martensite and austenite exhibits a moderate strength and high enough cryogenic toughness.The austenite enriched of C,N and Ni is still stable at the cryogenic temperature.The tearing ridges on the impact fracture surface is densely occupied by the precipitated austenite,elongated along the tearing direction.One of the important cause of the excellent eryogenic properties is that the precipitated austenite absorbs the impurities and thus purifies the matrix of the steel.展开更多
