Abstract The accelerated internal corrosion in boiler evaporators results from an unfavorable coincidence of adverse thermohydraulic conditions, boiler water contamination, and fabrication defects. Boiler tube material (medium carbon steel, Type SA210) was exposed in static autoclaves to aqueous solutions of HF, FeF3, and NiF2 at 300 C, and the rate of attack and morphology of the resulting scales were established. For comparison, parallel tests were conducted in aqueous solutions containing chloride ions. This work establishes the role played by fluoride contamination of the boiler water.

The paper presents the results of examinations of tribological and corrosion properties of the layers produced on a C45 medium-carbon steel surface in the gas nitriding process combined with subsequent treatment – oxidation and impregnation of corrosion inhibitor. Investigations of the microstructure of these layers and their phase composition were carried out. Hardness of the layers was measured by Vickers method. Tribological properties (linear wear) of the layers were performed by means of the three-cylinder-cone method. Resistance to corrosion was determined by electrochemical methods. The investigations showed that the linear wear of the C45 steel samples with the layers produced in the combined processes of nitriding with subsequent oxidation and impregnation was smaller than that of steel samples without layers. Moreover, the corrosion resistance of these layers in aggressive solutions containing chloride ions was very good.

One of ways to improve properties of materials without changing the product shape toobtain the desired engineering applications is heating and cooling under effect of controlledsequence of heat treatment. The main aim of this study was to investigate the effect ofheating and cooling on the surface roughness, microstructure and some selected propertiessuch as the hardness and impact strength of Medium Carbon Steel which treated at differenttypes of heat treatment processes. Heat treatment achieved in this work was respectively,heating, quenching and tempering. The specimens were heated to 850°C and left for 45minutes inside the furnace as a holding time at that temperature, then quenching process wasperformed in four types of quenching media (still air, cold water (2°C), oil and polymersolution), respectively. Thereafter, the samples were tempered at 200°C, 400°C, and 600°Cwith one hour as a soaking time for each temperature, then were all cooled by still air. Whenthe heat treatment process was completed, the surface roughness, hardness, impact strengthand microstructure tests were performed. The results showed a change and clearimprovement of surface roughness, mechanical properties and microstructure afterquenching was achieved, as well as the change that took place due to the increasingtoughness and ductility by reducing of brittleness of samples.

Abstract SAE 1026 is a low-to-medium-carbon steel used in the annealed, hot-worked, normalized, cold-worked or water-quenched-and-tempered condition for a variety of engineering and construction applications. It combines good workability (hot or cold), good machinability and good weldability. It has relatively high manganese (0.60-0.90%); this provides increased hardenability which is reflected in all uses and gives somewhat increased hardness and strength in the core of carburized parts and in uncarburized applications. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties as well as fracture toughness. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, joining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: CS-60. Producer or source: Carbon steel mills.
