The results show that the decomposition of ferrite phase is accompanied by the formation of σ phase at 750-1000℃, especially in the range of 800-900℃. The longer the aging time, the higher the amount of o precipi- tation. The area fxaction of various phases remains at a certain value upon the completion of ferrite deformation. The temperature of 850℃ is the most sensitive transaction temperature, the incubation time for the formation of o precipitation is less than 1 min, and aging for 20 min leads to the complete transformation of ferrite. The o phase is formed preferentially at the α/α/γjunction, and then grows along the α/α boundary in the matrix.展开更多

At different heating rates, the mechanism of phase transition from y phase to 6 phase and growth modes of ~ phase differed. Variations in microstructures for as- cast SDSS2607 during heat preservation at 1 220 ~C indicated two kinds of transformations from y phase to 6 phase. In-situ observations of microstructural changes during the tensile process at 1 050 showed a mutual coordination between y and 6 phases. When the true strain increased, the mutual coordination between 7 and 6 phases was damaged. Subsequently, cracks nucleated at the ＂y/g interface. With the increase in temperature, the strength of as- cast SDSS2607 decreased while its plasticity increased. Its thermoplasticity was poor, and the reduction in area of tensile specimens was less than 80%. When the deformation strain of hot compression increased, the stable deformation zone in the heat processing maps enlarged gradually. Moreover, the unstable deformation zones were extended.展开更多

This report presents some data on the microstructures that develop after folding and subsequent precipitation during heat treatment of UNS S32750 SDSS sheet samples.The microstructural and textural changes have been followed using SEM/EBSD techniques.Upon folding,both a texture and strain gradient form in the folded/bent region,subsequent heat treatment at 845℃results in the ferrite phase to transform to sigma,austenite and chi phases.Transformation was found to be accelerated by strain.Complete transformation of the ferrite phase occurred within half the annealing time required in the unstrained regions.The local mis-orientations in the ferrite and austenite phases reduced during annealing,however,the reduction in the austenite was not very high and a significant amount remained even after the longest annealing time.The texture components that developed during the folding process remained unchanged even after one hour annealing at 845℃.The implication of these findings could have a bearing on the formation of sigma phase during welding of SDSS that may have residual stresses introduced during final processing.展开更多

The as-cast microstructure of the super-DSS was characterized by its ferrite and island-like austenite phases. During the solution annealing process, the austenite volume percentage of the steel decreased gradually with increased annealing temperature. As a main element, the chromium content in the ferritic and austenitic phases elevated slightly at first then decreased with increased annealing temperature. The chromium partition coefficient in the steel varied by around 1.0. The contents of nickel, another main alloy element, also increased in the ferritic and austenitic phases with increased annealing temperature, as did the nickel partition coefficient in the steel, which tended to be close to 1.0. The nanoindentation characterization results indicate that the hardness of the austenite phase is slightly greater than that of the ferrite phase. They were similar to each other within a certain temperature range from 1 050 ℃ to 1 100℃. This temperature range was consistent with the temperature range in which the content ratio of the two phases was close to 1： 1. We found the Young＇ s modulus of the ferrite phase to be greater than that of the austenite phase. With increased annealing temperature, the Young＇ s modulus of the ferrite phase decreased while that of the austenite phase remained almost unchanged.展开更多

Then different methods were developed to meet all requirements presents in ASME standards, where most of are applied for lower production, when compared to other materials such carbon steel. This study accomplished circumferential welding experiments in base material (BM)—UNS S32750 Super Duplex Stainless Steel with a thickness of 3.68 mm. Welding was performed using GMAW (Gas Metal Arc Welding) process with CMT (Cold Metal Transfer) control and the aid of a Motoman robot and a turntable device, which were used to ensure the accurate positioning of the torch and that the welding has been fully implemented in the 1 G position, respectively. This process achieves higher production in relation other welding process usually applied for this material class. The joints which presented adequate dimensional results were, then, subjected to tensile and hardness Vickers tests. To avoid the lack of penetration problem, the welding was performed using the CMT process combined with pulsed arc, thus, resulting in full penetration and improved surface finish. The results have shown that the CMT procedure, combined with pulsed arc, led to an adequate superficial finishing, mechanical properties and corrosion resistance in accomplishment with the requirements presented in applicable standards.展开更多
