Abstract

The nanocrystalline microstructure in the surface of low carbon steel induced by surface mechanical attrition treatment(SMAT) has been characterized by means of optical microscopy(OM) and X-ray diffractometry(XRD).Then,the effects of SMAT on corrosion resistance of low carbon steel measured in 0. 05 mol/L H2SO4+ 0. 05 mol/L Na2SO4 solution have been investigated. The results showed that steel 20 SMAT sample has better corrosion resistance than steel 10 SMAT sample. It was thought-provoking that the results have been in contrast to the corrosion results in coarse grain state.
