Research on the effect of ion implantation on the corrosion behaviour of metals has been carried out for years, but some difficulties arise in the comparison of the obtained results due to variations in experimental conditions (alloys, surface preparation, doses, experimental techniques...). This work tries to overcome those differences, presenting the effect of several elements (Ce+, N+, Cr+ and Cr+ N+) implanted in similar conditions on the pitting corrosion resistance of AISI 430 stainless steel. Potentiodynamic measurements in 1M NaCl demonstrate the beneficial effect of all the implanted elements, showing that Ce+ is the less efficient ion, while Cr+ N+ co-implantation gives the best results in terms of localized attack resistance. Pitting morphology is explained in terms of the XPS and GIXRD data that allow chemical and structural characterization of the implanted layer. Those results help to enlighten the protection mechanisms involved in the considered implantations.

In the present paper the influence of the addition of MoSi2particles on the microstructure and pitting corrosion behaviour of laser cladding Co based alloy coatings deposited on 304 stainless steel substrate has been reported. The coating microstructure was investigated by SEM, OM, XRD and EPMA etc.. And the pitting corrosion resistance of coating was evaluated in the 3.5% NaCl solution. The results showed that: (1) The microstructure is fined by increasing MoSi2percentage. And the coating microstructure evolved from dendrites and interdendritic eutectics to various faceted dendrites with the bamboo leaf, flower, or butterfly morphology, when the MoSi2content is from 0~20% to 30~40%; (2) the (Epit-Eprot) of Co based alloy/MoSi2composite coating was lower than that of Co based alloy, and which presented higher self-repairing capability. The pitting potential Epitof Co +(0~20wt.%) MoSi2cladding coatings is higher than that of stainless steel, the pitting corrosion resistance is enhanced; When more MoSi2(30wt.%) was added, the pitting corrosion resistance decreases due to microstructure inhomogeneity and exiting of inclusion.

Abstract Nirosta 4429 is a low-carbon, high-nitrogen version of type 316 stainless steel. The low carbon imparts intergranular corrosion resistance while the nitrogen imparts both higher strength and some increased pitting corrosion resistance. It is recommended for use as welded parts that need not or cannot be annealed after welding. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on high temperature performance and corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, and joining. Filing Code: SS-787. Producer or source: ThyssenKrupp Nirosta.

The effects of morphology of ferrite and non-metallic inclusions on corrosion resistance of as-cast 304 stainless steel (304 SS) were investigated. With the decrease in quenching temperature from 1723 K to 1648 K, the different microstructures of the as-cast 304 SS were obtained as the following series: austenitic-lathy δ ferrite, austenitic-colony δ ferrite and austenitic-blocky δ ferrite, and the average inclusion size increased. The electrochemical results show that the sample with the microstructure of austenitic- lathy δ ferrite and smaller size inclusions had a higher corrosion tendency and the lower pitting resistance. Furthermore, the effect of morphology and content of ferrite on corrosion resistance was greater than that of inclusion size under the current experimental conditions. Therefore, a promising method was developed to improve the corrosion resistance of as-cast 304 SS by changing the solidification process.
