Abstract
In the present work, the effect of long-term aging at 750 °C up to 480 h on microstructure evolution, texture development and corrosion behavior of a low molybdenum Fe–21Cr-1.5Ni–5Mn alloy has been investigated systematically. An increase in aging time results in increase in proportion of σ-phase. The σ-phase formation took place by the eutectoid decomposition reaction: δ → σ + γ2. The σ-phase did not show any specific orientation relationship with neighboring δ ferrite grains. The initial solution annealed sample showed the presence of strong Brass ({110}[removed]), Cube ({100}[removed]), Goss ({110}[removed]), and minor Cu ([removed]) in austenite, and strong γ-fiber (normal direction, ND//[removed]) along with minor α-fiber (rolling direction, RD//[removed]) in ferrite. After, long-term aging up to 480 h, austenite showed strong Cu ({112}[removed]) and minor Brass ({110}[removed]) along with Cube ({100}[removed]). Ferrite, on the other hand, showed γ-fiber. The lower amount of Cr/Mo and higher N in Fe-21Cr-1.5Ni-5Mn alloy was not enough to avoid the σ precipitation, however, it delayed its precipitation. The increase in σ-phase with aging time resulted in a decrease in corrosion resistance.
