A macro- and micromechanics investigation of hot cracking in duplex steels
Abstract
The relationship between microstructure and high temperature ductile tearing in duplex stainless steels has been investigated. Several grades were considered corresponding to different chemical compositions, different volume fractions and morphologies of the ferrite and austenite phases and different oxide inclusion contents. The high temperature cracking resistance has been quantified using both the essential work of fracture (EWF) and the …
