Corrosion Mechanism Study on Welded Austenitic Stainless Steel
Austenitic stainless steels 304 are important material that have variety application such as marine, construction, oil and gas exploitation, chemical industries, and ship building. However, welding process on austenitic stainless-steel change the stability of passive film on surface stainless steel...

Temperature of ferric chloride solution are the parameters that involve in determining corrosivity of welded austenitic stainless steel 304. Ferric chloride pitting test results showed that pitting corrosion on welded part of austenitic stainless steel are more severe in high temperature (60°C) than in low temperature (15°C). Furthermore, hardness test of welded part of austenitic stainless steel 304 decreases when tested in high temperature (60°C). Visual inspection and scanning electron microscope were used to examine the corrosion microstructure and morphology features of the specimens before and after corrosion attacked. 2018-01 Final Year Project NonPeerReviewed application/pdf en http://utpedia.utp.edu.my/19301/1/20190-FYP%20Dissertation.pdf Ahmad Rahim, Farhana Aqilah (2018) Corrosion Mechanism Study on Welded Austenitic Stainless Steel.
