| Summary: | In this experiment, a novel designed Mn-N-bearing, nearly Ni-free, TRIP-aided economical 19Cr (Fe-18.9Cr-10.1Mn-0.3Ni-0.26N-0.03C) duplex stainless steel (DSS) was prepared, and it exhibited a good combination of strength and toughness after suitable solution treatment, showing good application potential. The deformation mechanisms of ferrite and austenite are different during tensile deformation at room temperature: the ferrite phase was deformed by a dislocation slip mechanism and formed a cell structure due to its higher stacking fault energy; the lower stacking fault energy of austenite resulted in a strain-induced martensite phase transformation mechanism. With an increase in aging time from 1 h to 7 h at 750 °C in air, the σ phase precipitates in the ferrite triple grain boundary junction, which leads to an increase in ultimate tensile strength, acts as an obstacle to the dislocation motion and decreases the ductility, deteriorating the pitting corrosion resistance in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution at the same time. The σ phase precipitation behavior does not alter the deformation mechanism of the phases of the solution-treated TRIP-aided economical DSS. |
