Alloy 904L (UNS N08904) is a superaustenitc stainless steel with high Cr and Mo additions. The steel also contains high nickel content, which is important to maintain the austenitic structure. Because of its high corrosion resistance, Type 904L alloy is being used in much equipment in chemical and petrochemical plants. Some of this equipment may experience high temperatures in service or during fabrication. The microstructural changes associated with exposures in the range of 650°C to 850°C or as a consequence of melting were analyzed in this paper. The microstructure/corrosion resistance relationships were studied by means of electrochemical pitting corrosion tests and microstructural analysis. Critical pitting temperatures (CPT) of annealed and cast specimens were determined and compared. The results show that the corrosion resistance can vary significantly with fabrication processes and/or service at high temperatures.

Abstract CLI-50A is a Korean 6 Mo superaustenitic stainless steel with improved corrosion resistance properties. The chromium additions have been increased up to 22% together with high nitrogen additions. The PREN value [%Cr] + 3.3 [%Mo] + 16[%N] is higher than 45. The alloy is copper free. This alloy is particularly well designed for seawater applications and pollution control equipment. The chemistry is balanced to obtain an austenitic microstructure that explains the high toughness properties, including those at -196deg C (-320 deg F). This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, elasticity, tensile properties, and shear strength. It also includes information on forming, heat treating, and joining. Filing Code: SS-660. Producer or source: Cruesot-Loire Industrie.

The superaustenitic stainless steel ASTM A 744 Gr. CN3MN (22Cr-25Ni-7Mo-0.2N) has as mainly characteristic high corrosion resistance in severe environment. As the corrosion resistance depends on the microstructure, it was investigated the phase transformations after a solution treatment at 1200°C. Thermocalc calculation for 53Fe-25Ni-22Cr alloy indicates austenitic phase between 1300 and 800°C and austenite + sigma phase below 800°C. The as-cast steel studied presented 2.7 % of precipitates volume fraction and the precipitates were located on the grain boundaries and inside the austenitic grains. X-ray diffraction confirmed the presence of sigma phase in as-cast sample. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the level of Cr and Mo was higher in the precipitates than in the austenitic matrix and the Ni content was higher in matrix compared to precipitates. After heating at 1200°C during 90 minutes, the precipitate volume fraction was reduced to 2.1 % and the grain boundaries precipitates were dissolved. The microstructural analyses made through transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction showed the presence sigma phase and M6C carbide.
