- Even in the case of third-generation duplex stainless steels, corrosion resistance is insufficient in a hot concentrated chloride environment that is more severe than seawater, such as in the chemical industry field.
- An objective of the present invention is to provide a duplex stainless steel that, by improving the corrosion resistance of third-generation duplex stainless steel, can solve a problem of corrosion under a hot concentrated chloride environment such as in the chemical industry field, as well as a method for producing the duplex stainless steel.
- Heretofore the influence of W on corrosion resistance and the action mechanism thereof have been considered to be the same as the mechanism of Mo. However, as a result of detailed studies conducted to examine the action mechanisms which contribute to corrosion resistance of Mo and W, the present inventors found that there is a mistake in the conventional findings with respect to the corrosion resistance under severe environments.
-
Figure 1 illustrates polarization curves of pure W and pure Mo under a corrosive environment. As shown inFigure 1 , even in a region in which Mo is eluted, almost no W is eluted. Thus, it is expected that the influences of Mo and W on improving corrosion resistance are significantly different. - Therefore, detailed studies were performed on the corrosion resistance of duplex stainless steel for which the chemical composition of a third-generation duplex stainless steel was adopted as a basis and which contained a large amount of W but did not contain Mo. As a result, the following findings were obtained.
-
- (a) By appropriately adjusting the chemical composition and production method to obtain an α+γ duplex micro-structure in which there is no precipitation of an σ-phase or a χ-phase, duplex stainless steel having excellent corrosion resistance under an environment in which hot concentrated chloride is present is obtained. The corrosion resistance at such time exceeds a corrosion resistance that is predicted from the relational expression of PREW.
- (b) By appropriately adjusting the chemical composition and production method, a passivation film that is formed under an environment in which hot concentrated chloride having a low pH is present can be made a passivation film that is rich in W. A passivation film that is rich in W dramatically improves corrosion resistance under the aforementioned environment.
- The present invention has been made based on the above findings, and the gist of the present invention is a duplex stainless steel and a production method therefor which are described hereunder.

- Note that, in the present invention, the term "α-phase" refers to a ferritic phase and the term "γ-phase" refers to an austenite phase.
- According to the present invention, a duplex stainless steel that has excellent corrosion resistance is obtained. The duplex stainless steel is suited for use in the chemical industry field and the like in which corrosion under a hot concentrated chloride environment is a problem.

Figure 1 Figure 1 is a view illustrating polarization curves of pure W and pure Mo under a corrosive environment. - [
Figure 2] Figure 2 is a view illustrating the relation between a value for W/(Fe+Cr) at an outermost surface of a passivation film and pitting potential according to an example. - An embodiment of the present invention is described hereunder. Hereinafter, the symbol "%" as used with respect to the content of respective elements refers to "mass%."
- C is an austenite former and is effective for stabilizing an austenite phase. However, in stainless steel with a high Cr content such as in the present invention, if the C content exceeds 0.03%, there is a risk that Cr carbides will precipitate and corrosion resistance will deteriorate. Therefore, the C content is made 0.03% or less. Preferably, the C content is 0.01% or less. The above effect will be achieved if even a trace amount of C is contained, and hence the lower limit thereof is not particularly defined. However, to adequately achieve the above effect, a C content of 0.003% or more is preferable.
- Si is effective as a deoxidizing component of steel. However, if the Si content is excessive, there is a concern that the Si will promote precipitation of an σ-phase and a χ-phase. Therefore, the Si content is made 1.0% or less. Preferably, the Si content is 0.5% or less. Although the Si content may be substantially zero if deoxidation is to be performed with another element, it is preferable to contain 0.2% or more of Si to adequately achieve the above effect.
- Mn is an austenite former and contributes to stabilization of an austenite. However, if the Mn content is excessive, there is a concern that MnS that acts as a corrosion starting point will crystallize or precipitate. Therefore, the Mn content is made 1.0% or less. Preferably the Mn content is 0.5% or less. The above effect will be achieved if even a trace amount of Mn is contained, and hence the lower limit thereof is not particularly defined. However, to adequately achieve the above effect, an Mn content of 0.1 % or more is preferable.
- P is an impurity element that is unavoidable during the production process, and if the content thereof is excessive there is a risk that workability will be reduced. Therefore, the P content is made 0.04% or less. Preferably, the P content is 0.01% or less.
- S is an impurity element that is unavoidable during the production process, and if the content thereof is excessive there is a risk that workability will be reduced. There is also a concern that MnS which acts as a corrosion starting point will crystallize or precipitate. Therefore, the S content is made 0.01% or less. Preferably, the S content is 0.004% or less.
- Cu is an austenite former, and is effective for improving resistance to sulfuric acid. Cu is also effective for assisting the formation of a passivation film that contains a large amount of W. Specifically, Cu has an effect of promoting a cathode reaction, and accelerating the formation of a passivation film containing a large amount of W. Therefore, the content of Cu is made 0.1% or more. However, if the content of Cu is excessive, there is a concern that the excessive content may deteriorate formability. Accordingly, the Cu content is set in a range of 0.1 to 1.0%. A preferable lower limit is 0.4%, and a preferable upper limit is 0.6%.
- Ni is an austenite former. In order to obtain an α+γ duplex micro-structure with a desirable balance with respect to the relation with ferrite forming elements such as Cr and W, an Ni content in the range of 5.0 to 7.5% is necessary. A preferable lower limit is 6.0%, and a preferable upper limit is 6.8%.
- Cr is a ferrite forming element and is also a basic element that is effective for improving corrosion resistance. If the Cr content is insufficient or excessive, a temperature range in which an α+γ duplex micro-structure can be stably obtained narrows. Therefore, the Cr content is set in a range of 22.0 to 26.0%. A preferable lower limit is 23.0%, and a preferable upper limit is 25.5%.
- W is a ferrite forming element and is also an important element for developing excellent corrosion resistance. If the W content is insufficient or is excessive, an α+γ duplex micro-structure cannot be stably obtained. Therefore, the W content is set as a value within a range of 6.0 to 12.0%. A preferable lower limit is 8.0%, and a preferable upper limit is 11.0%.
- N is an austenite former, and is an effective element for improving thermal stability and corrosion resistance of a duplex stainless steel. To obtain an α+γ duplex micro-structure with a desirable balance with respect to a relation with ferrite forming elements such as Cr and W, an N content of 0.20% or more is necessary. However, if the N content exceeds 0.32%, there is a risk that the toughness and corrosion resistance of the steel will noticeably deteriorate due to the production of nitride. Therefore, the N content is set in a range of 0.20 to 0.32%. A preferable lower limit is 0.24%, and a preferable upper limit is 0.28%.
- Mo is a ferrite forming element, similarly to Cr and W. However, when Mo is contained in the chemical composition, the Mo decreases the solubility of W, and hence it is necessary to make the Mo content as low as possible. Therefore, the Mo content is made 0.01% or less, and preferably is 0.008% or less.
- The chemical composition of the duplex stainless steel of the present invention contains each of the aforementioned elements in the respectively defined ranges, with the balance of Fe and impurities. The term "impurities" refers to components that are contained in raw materials such as ore or scrap or that are mixed in due to other causes when industrially producing the steel material.
- The base metal has an α+γ duplex micro-structure in which the area ratio of the σ-phase is from 0.40 to 0.60 and the balance is the γ-phase as well as other phases for which the area ratio is 0.01 or less. In phases other than the σ-phase and γ-phase, particularly in an σ-phase and a χ-phase, a Cr depleted zone is formed around the phase, and consequently corrosion resistance is degraded. Therefore, although it is preferable that the total area ratio of those phases is zero, a total area ratio of 0.01 or less is permissible. Note that, since the corrosion resistance may be degraded if the proportion of the γ-phase is large, preferably the area ratio of the γ-phase is made 0.58 or less.
- If the duplex stainless steel having the aforementioned chemical composition and metal micro-structure is produced under appropriate conditions, a passivation film formed under an environment in which hot concentrated chloride having a low pH is present can be made a passivation film that is rich in W. Although Fe and Cr in a passivation film undergo corrosion in a low pH environment, a passivation film that contains a large amount of W that effectively contributes to corrosion resistance is excellent in corrosion resistance.
- Further, in a case where the chemical composition of an outermost surface of the passivation film after immersion for 24 hours in a testing liquid having a pH of 1 satisfies the following formula (i), it is possible to dramatically improve the corrosion resistance of the duplex stainless steel. The left-hand value in the following formula (i) is more preferably set to 0.10% or more.
- Where, each symbol of an element in the above formula represents a content (at%) of each element in the outermost surface of the passivation film.
- The duplex stainless steel of the present invention is made into a product by melting under production conditions that are generally adopted, performing necessary processes such as hot working and cold working, and finally performing a heat treatment including heating in a temperature range of 1150 to 1300°C, and after holding the steel in this temperature range, cooling at a cooling rate that is equal to or higher than a cooling rate of water cooling.
- This is because, if the aforementioned heat treatment temperature is less than 1150°C, precipitation of the σ-phase or χ-phase is inevitable, while on the other hand, if the aforementioned heat treatment temperature exceeds 1300°C, there is a risk that an α+γ duplex micro-structure in which the area ratio of the σ-phase is from 0.4 to 0.6 and the balance is substantially a γ-phase cannot be obtained. Therefore, the heat treatment is performed in a temperature range from 1150 to 1300°C. Although the holding time will vary depending on the thickness of the duplex stainless steel, the holding time may be appropriately selected within a range of 1 to 120 min.
- If the cooling rate after the steel is held in the aforementioned temperature range is excessively slow there is a risk that an σ-phase or a χ-phase will precipitate during the cooling process, and therefore the steel is cooled at a cooling rate that is equal to or higher than the cooling rate of water cooling. More specifically, it is sufficient to perform cooling at a cooling rate of 40°C/s or more.
- Hereunder, the present invention is described specifically by way of an example, although the present invention is not limited to the following example.
-
- Where, each symbol of an element in the above formula represents a content (mass%) of the element in the steel.
- Thereafter, after heating and holding at the temperatures shown in Table 1, the respective steels were subjected to water cooling and specimens were obtained. Commercially available stainless steels having the chemical compositions shown in Table 2 were also prepared as specimens. With respect to these specimens, observation of the metal micro-structure of the base metal, measurement of corrosion resistance, and component analysis of a passivation film were performed.

In addition, the presence/absence of an σ-phase and a χ-phase was verified, and steel in which there was no σ-phase or χ-phase precipitation was marked with "O", while steel in which precipitation of at least one of σ-phase and χ-phase was observed was marked with "x", and the total area ratios of these phases were measured.
- A disk-like test specimen having a diameter of 15 mm and a plate thickness of 2 mm was cut out from each specimen, and the surface was finished by #600 wet polishing. Testing was performed in accordance with JIS G 0577 (2014), and a pitting potential V'C100 corresponding to 100 µA/cm2 was measured. Note that, since an environment in which hot concentrated chloride is present was assumed, a 250 g/L NaCl aqueous solution that was kept at 90°C was used as the aqueous solution.
- Some of the specimens were immersed for 24 hours in a testing liquid having a pH of 1, and thereafter measurement of each main metal element in the passivation film was performed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and a value of W/(Fe+Cr) in the outermost surface of the passivation film was calculated.
- The results of the above measurements are summarized in Table 3.
