Purpose This paper aims to explore the transformation process and transformation mechanism of carbon steel under the marine environment. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, the transformation and rust layers corrosion products on 0Cu2Cr carbon steel with different cycles coupon test was investigated and deeply explored by scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive spectrometer, X-ray diffraction.

ABSTRACTIn the present work the kinetic growth is analyzed for a hard coating applied on a low carbon steel AISI 8620. A thermochemical treatment of bored with dehydrated paste at temperatures of 900, 950 and 1000 °C with a residence time of 2, 4, 6 and 8 h. The morphology and types of borides formed on the surface of the steel were evaluated by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The layer formed has a size of 20 to 113 μm which will be dependent on the process temperature, the treatment time and the alloy elements of the substrate. Hardness of 1493-1852 HV are presented for treatment times and temperatures established in this study. The kinetics of growth were determined and analyzed using a mathematical model of diffusion, evaluating the penetration of the biphasic layer that is determined as a function of the time and temperature of the thermochemical treatment (TCT). The results show the increase in the growth constants (k) with respect to the bored temperatures. The activity energy (Q) of the material AISI 8620 was also obtained.

Sem Study

In this work, the iron bacteria were cultured and inoculated into the cooling water before immersion, and low carbon steel coupons were immersed for one month. Then, microbially influenced corrosion (MIC) of carbon steel in the presence of these bacteria was investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), x-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD) and weight loss methods. SEM results showed that large amounts of corrosion products and heterogeneous biofilm layer were formed on the coupon surface. SEM also revealed the uniform-pitting corrosion on the steel surface due to bacteria colonization. XRD results show that the main constituents present in corrosion product are composed of iron oxides and iron hydroxides.

Purpose – This paper aims to investigate the corrosion behaviour of carbon steel in the Mauritian atmosphere over a three-year period. Atmospheric corrosion is a serious problem in Mauritius. Design/methodology/approach – Carbon steel samples were exposed outdoors at various sites. Mass loss analysis was performed to determine the corrosion behaviour of the metal over the exposure period. Scanning electron microscopy and Raman tests were performed to investigate the formation of the corrosion products on the carbon steel surface. Findings – It was found that the corrosion loss at two of the sites considered did not vary clearly according to the bilogarithmic law. Time of wetness was found to be a main factor affecting atmospheric corrosion in Mauritius. The corrosivity of the atmosphere was found to lie between categories C3 and C4, according to ISO 9223. Originality/value – The results can be of essential help to the construction industry, especially as steel buildings are becoming very common in Mauritius. Moreover, as Mauritius is a tropical island, the results obtained can be useful in other tropical islands.

In order to study the mechanical properties of low-carbon steel under the coupling effect of the overall environment and the loads, the tensile mechanical test was carried out. The results indicated that, as the sea water concentration and tensile deterioration increased, both the mass-loss rate and surface roughness of the low-carbon steel gradually increased, and the yield strength, tensile strength, elongation, and section shrinkage decreased gradually. The mechanical parameters of the low-carbon steel were affected by the joint actions of the sea water concentration and tensile deterioration. The established mechanical model of low-carbon steel under the marine engineering environment shows that tensile deterioration had no effects on the fracture toughness, while the increase of sea water concentration could reduce the fracture toughness remarkably.

This study investigates the corrosion rate and corrosion behavior of carbon steel pipe at constant condensed fluid from a geothermal power plant. The corrosion rate of the steel was determined by weight loss analysis, whereas the corrosivity of the condensate fluids was measured by a multimeter Hach HQ40d. The morphology of the corrosion products formed was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS), and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Results showed that the corrosion rate in the liquid part of the condensate fluids is constant during the immersion period when water quality parameters are constant. Meanwhile, the corrosion rate of low carbon steel pipe decreases though with the longer exposure period in the condensate fluid. The decrease of metal corrodibility identical to the lower corrosion rate at a longer exposure time due to the protective corrosion layer formed. The corrosion products during immersion tests identified in the corrosion test were uniform with iron oxide in the form of FeO(OH) and Fe2O3*H2O.

Rotary Friction Welding

Purpose Nowadays, a rotary friction welding method is accepted in many industries, particularly for joining dissimilar materials as a mass production process. It is due to advantages like less material waste, low production time and low energy expenditure. The effect of the change in carbon contents in steel is studied experimentally in the rotary friction welding process, and a statistical model is developed. The Grey Taguchi method gives the single parameters optimization for all output responses. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach An experimental setup was designed and produced to achieve the multi-response in single optimum parameters through Grey relational analysis. A continuous/direct drive rotary friction welding process is chosen in which transition from friction to the forging stage can be achieved automatically by applying a break. In this experimentation, high carbon and low carbon work-pieces with different carbon percentage were welded with rotary friction welding. Response tensile strength and micro-hardness of the design of the experiment are used to analyze the results. Findings The optimization of parameters has been performed with Grey relational analysis, and optimum parameters are friction pressure 40 kg/cm2, forging pressure 100 kg/cm2 and speed 1,120 rpm. GRA optimum parameters give 56.04 and 82.16 percent improvement in Tensile strength and micro-hardness, respectively. Practical implications High carbon steel (En-31) and low carbon steel (SAE-1020) are used in so many industrial applications. These materials are mostly used in the process like manufacturing, metallurgy, machinery, agricultural, etc. These practical applications have brought forward definite and notable economic benefits. Originality/value It provides a new framework to investigate the problems where multiple input machining variables and various output responses are obtained in single optimized parameters.
