Abstract

To determine the influence of oxygen content on the formation of inclusion in 27Cr-7Ni hyper duplex stainless steel, samples were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. Electrochemical tests were also conducted, which revealed that an increase in oxygen content reduces the resistance to pitting corrosion of the alloys. This was attributed to the formation of numerous inclusions, as well as an increase in the area of micro-crevices that occur between the inclusion and metallic matrix, and which act as initiation sites for corrosion pits.
