Abstract:In this work, a Super Austenitic Stainless Steel is designed supported by Thermo-Calc modeling and produced at open atmosphere induction furnace, based on 254SMO (UNSS31254). The technological challenge of this work is to prevent the sensitization of the alloy, due to its high C content (0.072%). The chemical composition includes 0.25%Nb and 2.2%Mn to stabilize the alloy and improve mechanical properties. Furthermore, two different types of solution annealing are performed in order to study the effect of the p… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
