The influence of sigma phase on erosion and corrosion properties of duplex steel

Journal Title: Archiwum Odlewnictwa - Year 2010, Vol 10, Issue 3

Abstract

The paper presents the results of investigations concerning the influence of σ phase precipitating on the erosion and corrosion properties of ferritic-austenitic cast steel. The object of investigation have been two grades of corrosion-resistant cast steel: GX2CrNiMoCuN25-6-3-3 and GX2CrNiMoN25-6-3. The examinations have involved measurements for obtaining potentiodynamic curves, examination of erosion and corrosion resistance, and microstructural analysis. The supersaturated cast steel and the material after heat treatment have been examined. It has been found that the tribological properties of supersaturated cast steel are worse than those of the supersaturated and annealed cast steel. The highest erosion and corrosion resistance has been achieved as a result of ferrite decomposition δ → γ’+ σ. The examinations of corrosion resistance have revealed that the ageing process after supersaturation do not cause significant changes in the anti-corrosive properties.
