Abstract
High nitrogen austenitic stainless steel (HNASS) has outstanding mechanical properties, but in its hot working, welding, and high-temperature use, there will be a precipitation phase, especially nitride precipitation that reduces its intergranular corrosion, stress corrosion, corrosion fatigue, and other grain boundary-related properties. At present, the traditional methods of suppressing precipitation phase precipitation, such as solution treatment and alloying, have drawbacks. Grain boundary character distribution (GBCD) optimization of Fe-19Cr-10Mn-1Ni-0.53N HNASS was characterized by electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) in this work. This study reveals that after grain boundary engineering (GBE) treatment, the percentage of low Σ coincidence site lattice (CSL) boundaries of the solid solution treated sample rises from 53.94% to 82.41%, because the sample was cold-rolled (CR) by 5%, followed by annealing at 1423 K for 10 min, and the twin related domains (TRD) size increases from 23.99 μm to 169.82 μm and ν (the ratio of TRD size to grain size) raises from 1.74 to 7.52. The connectivity of the random high-angle grain boundary (RHAGB) web is interrupted and the GBCD of the experimental steel is remarkably optimized.
