Abstract

High interstitial steels (HIS) are based on the joint addition of carbon and nitrogen, which resulted in an austenitic FeCrMn steel grade. In contrast to high nitrogen steels (HNS), they can be produced by conventional metallurgy and offer a unique combination of mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. This makes them promising candidates for the use in environments featuring corrosive or wear attack or even both. Corrosion resistance can be improved by the addition of molybdenum, particularly in the case of media containing chloride ions. In this study, different FeCrMnCN alloys were investigated by means of pitting corrosion testing in sodium chloride solution, as well as cavitation erosion resistance. These properties were examined depending on prestraining, since the latter is used to strengthen this kind of alloys.
