The effect of cold working on semiconducting properties of passive film and pitting corrosion resistance of 19Cr-18Mn-2Mo-0.9N high nitrogen austenitic stainless were investigated by anodic polarization, AC impedance and capacitance measurement methods. With increasing the cold rolling deformation ranging from 0% to 60%, the passive region of high nitrogen austenitic stainless steel decreases, and the corrosion potential, EIS radius and polarization resistance all decreases. The Mott-Schottky result indicates that the pitting corrosion resistance deteriorates with increment of cold rolling deformation. The results show that the passive films formed on high nitrogen austenitic stainless steel with different cold rolling deformation behave as n-type semiconductors. With increasing the cold rolling deformation grade, the donor density (ND) increases, but the thickness of the space-charge layer (W) decreases. The decreasing of the thickness of space-charge layer with increment of cold rolling deformation is attributed to the inceasing defect which deteriorates the stability of the passive film.

This study is concerning the influences of nitrogen content and aging precipitates on pitting corrosion resistance properties of high nitrogen austenitic stainless steel (HNS) through potentiodynamic polarization method. The microstructure of aged HNS is analized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The main results obtained are as follow: the formation of intergranular, cellular Cr2N and intermetallic χ precipitates makes the depletion of Cr and Mo in the matrix and deteriorates the resistance to pitting corrosion in aged specimens. Cr2N starts to precipitate in the form of lamellar structure to cellular precipitates, the pitting corrosion drops to about 0 VSCE. HNSs perform the same tendency that the pitting corrosion potential firstly decreases then increases and reduce to the minimum value at nose temperature. All the pitting corrosion potential of HNS-B aged for 2h at different temperature presents more than that of HNS-A. The pitting corrosion resistance is mainly controlled by nitrogen content before great precipitates of cellular Cr2N and intermetallic χ phase rich in Cr and Mo. It is also mainly controlled by the content and the type of precipitates after great precipitates of cellular Cr2N.

Abstract Nirosta 4429 is a low-carbon, high-nitrogen version of type 316 stainless steel. The low carbon imparts intergranular corrosion resistance while the nitrogen imparts both higher strength and some increased pitting corrosion resistance. It is recommended for use as welded parts that need not or cannot be annealed after welding. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on high temperature performance and corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, and joining. Filing Code: SS-787. Producer or source: ThyssenKrupp Nirosta.

The anodic polarization curves of 21Cr-11Ni austenitic stainless steels with various RE contents in 3.5% NaCl neutral solutions have been measured by electrochemical methods. The effect of RE on pitting corrosion resistance of 21Cr-11Ni stainless steels has been studied by the metallographic examination. The results show that sulfide and other irregular inclusions are modified to round or oval-shaped RE2O2S and RES after adding RE to 21Cr-11Ni stainless steesl. RE makes sulfide, and other irregular inclusions change to dispersed round or oval-shaped RE inclusions, effectively inhibits the occurrence of pitting corrosion, thereby enhancing the corrosion resistance of 21Cr-11Ni austenitic stainless steels.

Pitting corrosion resistance and intergranular corrosion of the austenitic stainless steel X5Cr Ni18-10 were tested on the base metal, heat affected zone and weld metal. Testing of pitting corrosion was performed by the potentiodynamic polarization method, while testing of intergranular corrosion was performed by the method of electrochemical potentiokinetic reactivation with double loop. The base metal was completely resistant to intergranular corrosion, while the heat affected zone showed a slight susceptibility to intergranular corrosion. Indicators of pitting corrosion resistance for the weld metal and the base metal were very similar, but their values are significantly higher than the values for the heat affected zone. This was caused by reduction of the chromium concentration in the grain boundary areas in the heat affected zone, even though the carbon content in the examined stainless steel is low (0.04 wt. % C).
