Nanostructure, Mechanical Properties, and Corrosion Resistance of Super Duplex Stainless Steel 2507 Aged at 500 °C

In order to investigate the effect of phase separation (PS) on the super duplex stainless steel SAF 2507, the evolution of the nanostructure, mechanical properties, and corrosion resistance of the alloy was studied after aging at 500 °C for 1, 10, 100, and 1000 h. The nanostructure of PS was quantit...

description In order to investigate the effect of phase separation (PS) on the super duplex stainless steel SAF 2507, the evolution of the nanostructure, mechanical properties, and corrosion resistance of the alloy was studied after aging at 500 °C for 1, 10, 100, and 1000 h. The nanostructure of PS was quantitatively characterized by small-angle neutron scattering. The hardness, impact toughness, and pitting corrosion resistance were measured for different conditions. The results show that the early stage of PS had a more significant impact on the nanostructure and properties of SAF 2507. The fracture behavior of the alloy was likely determined by the mechanical properties of ferrite for aged conditions. The pitting corrosion resistance of SAF 2507 aged at 500 °C was closely related to the Cr depletion caused by PS, and the resistance became weaker with the progression of PS. The evolution of the passivation region with aging time correlated well with that of mechanical properties and characteristic parameters of PS, indicating that it is possible to develop a new nondestructive electrochemical method to quantify the evolution of PS in SAF 2507.
