Effect of Heat Treatment on Corrosion, Fatigue, and Corrosion Fatigue Behavior of 17-4PH Stainless Steel
Source abstract
Abstract
This study investigates effect of heat treatment on fatigue and corrosion fatigue resistance of 17-4PH stainless steel at two thermal cycles, which consisted of 30 min solution annealing at 1050 C and 240 min ageing at 620 C as an overaged thermal cycle, and heat treatment at 464 C for 129 min as an optimized aged thermal cycle. Microstructural characteristics, tensile and hardness properties, corrosion performance, Hydrogen permeation, fatigue and corrosion fatigue resistance of these samples were then compared. Results showed that corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance of aged 17-4PH stainless steel was superior. Despite this, the corrosion fatigue resistance of the heat-treated steels was a function of applied loads and their exposure time to the corrosive environment. In fact, for the lower applied loads/longer exposure times, the overaged steel with higher corrosion rate, and less susceptibility to hydrogen damage had better corrosion fatigue performance, than the aged 17-4PH stainless steel.
