Abstract
ABSTRACTThe electric current pulse (ECP) was applied on the liquidus of 304 stainless steel during solidification and the pitting corrosion of the water-quenched specimens was explored in the present work. The results revealed that the utilisation of ECP can inhibit manganese sulphide from segregating around oxide inclusions during solidification and consequently, the pitting corrosion resistance of ECPed steel was significantly improved. Hence, the application of ECP during solidification might be an efficient way to improve the pitting corrosion resistance of the 304 stainless steel.This paper is part of a themed issue on Materials in External Fields.
