5. Grain magnification of stainless steels
5.1 Ferritic stainless steels
Ferritic stainless steels are subject to grain coarsening during high-temperature operations: reheating of slabs or blooms before hot rolling, heat-affected zone of welded joints.
When annealing or homogenizing between 750 and 1,000°C, grain coarsening poses no particular problem.
SCROLL TO TOP5.2 Martensitic and austenitic stainless steels
At high temperatures, these steels have an austenitic structure. When treating these steels, in order to obtain...
