Abstract
In this work was investigated the boron modified super duplex stainless steel processed by spray-forming, to characterize the workpiece using different techniques, among them, optical microscopy, SEM-FEG, X-ray diffraction, Rama spectroscopy and Vickers hardness (VH) and Thermo-Calc software. As result, in this research was verified that in the ferrite phase the Cr element predominates, but in the austenite phase the Fe and Ni elements prevail by the EDS technique. As well as XRD spectra showed different meta-stable phases and (FeCr)2B phase. Besides, the Vickers microhardness measurement was around 460 HV, being much taller than the duplex stainless steel. This alloy can be successfully used in the chemical, oil and gas industries, petrochemical process plants, the pulp and paper industry, pollution control equipment, transportation and for general engineering thanks to their outstanding corrosion resistance and mechanical properties.
