Material Properties of High-strength High Chromium TWIP Steel with Increased Corrosion Resistance

Abstract

Twinning induced plasticity (TWIP) steels are a class of high-strength steels that have been developed for their outstanding ductility and strength properties. TWIP refers to the fact that these steels display an unusually high degree of deformation before fracture due to the formation of twins during deformation. TWIP steels could be used in a variety of industries for structural applications or components that need to withstand high levels of stress and deformation. This article deals with the development of high strength with fully austenitic microstructure and high chromium content. Microstructure, mechanical and corrosion properties of this steel were studied. TWIP Steels Microstructure Mechanical properties Corrosion
