Effect of cyclic heat treatment process on the pitting corrosion resistance of EN-1.4405 martensitic, EN-1.4404 austenitic, and EN-1.4539 austenitic stainless steels in chloride-sulfate solution
The effect of high temperature variation on the corrosion resistance of EN‐1.4405, EN‐1.4404, and EN‐1.4539 stainless steels in 2 M H2SO4/3.5% NaCl solution was studied. Untreated EN 1.4405 exhibited the highest corrosion rate at 4.775 mm/year compared to untreated EN 1.4539 with the lowest corrosion rate (1.043 mm/year). Repetitive heat treatment significantly decreased the corrosion...
