Austenitic stainless steels of 300 series are widely used as the structural material due to excellent their cryogenic mechanical properties at cryogenic temperature. There are 316 steel which molybdenum is added to improve the austenitic stability, 316L which carbon contents is reduced to decrease the grain boundary precipitation during welding process, and 316LN which nitrogen is added to improve the austenitic stability and the mechanical strength. But material researches for the welding conditions and mechanical properties at the cryogenic temperature were insufficient so far. In this paper, the characteristics of mechanical properties considering the effect of welding conditions and cryogenic temperature are studied.

This paper was studied on the damage behavior of stainless steel (STS 304) for gas boiler with specific resistance. The electrochemical polarization test of STS304 for gas boiler was carried out. And the anodic polarization and damage aspect, such as pitting corrosion, was considered. With being low specific resistance, the passive current density of STS 304 increases, passive region and pitting potential is low. Also, the patting aspect of STS304 In specific resistance $74{\Omega}{\cdot}m$ water little appears, the pitting number increases and the damage behavior, such as pitting aspect, gradually grow bigger with being low specific resistance.

Transformation of austenite to martensite during cold rolling has been widely used to strengthen metastable austenitic stainless steel grades. Aging treatment of cold worked metastable austenitic stainless steels, including ${\alpha}'$-martensite phase, results in the further increase of strength, when aging is performed in $200^{\circ}C$ to $450^{\circ}C$ temperature range. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of time and temperature on the stress-strain behavior of cold worked austenitic stainless steels. The amount of ${\alpha}'$-martensite during cold working and aging was examined by ferrite scope and X-ray diffraction (XRD). During aging at $450^{\circ}C$ for 1hr, tensile strength dramatically increased by 150MPa. Deformed metastable austenitic steels containing the "body-centered" ${\alpha}'$-martensite are strengthened by the diffusion of interstitial solute atoms during aging at low temperature.

Recently many automotive parts have been made with stainless steels by deep drawing processes, But there are various problems occurred in deep drawing works of stainless steels compared with low carbon steels. For the severe deep drawing of complex cylindrical housing optimum process planning is required to eliminate intermediate annealing improve shape accuracy and maintain surface integrity without drawing defects such as tears wrinkles and scratches or galling. Therefore in this study a sample process planning of the severe of the severe deep drawing process is applied to a complex cylindrical housing needed for a 6 multi-stepped deep drawing of type STS 305 . A series of experiments are performed to investigate optimum process variables such as drawing rate radius and clearance. Through experiments the variations of the thickness strain distribution and hardness distribution in each drawing step are observed. Also the effects of other factors on formability such as drawing oil, blank holding force and die geometry are examined and discussed.

The tensile tests to identify the statistical tensile properties and the acoustic emission characteristics were conducted for STS304 stainless steel at $600^{\circ}C,\;700^{\circ}C$. From tensile tests performed by constant cross head speed controls with 1mm/min, rates at each elevated temperature, the scatters were observed in tensile strength, reduction of area, elongation and the acoustic emission parameters. The effect of temperature on the scatter of tensile behavior was larger at $700^{\circ}C$. The distributions of tensile properties was well followed in 3-parameter Weibull. The AE counts and energy of the $700^{\circ}C$ specimens were smaller than the $600^{\circ}C$.

스테인리스강은 내식성, 내열성, 내산화성이 좋으므로 화학산업, 의학용기, 고정밀 산업 등에서 많이 사용되고 있다. 스테인리스강은 열전도율이 낮고 용융물의 점성이 크고 가공경화가 심하기 때문에 인코넬 티탄합금 등과 함께 난삭재로 알려져 있다. 스테인리스강의 고합금강을 사용한 기계가공은 공구의 마모가 심하게 일어나므로 가 공이 어렵다. 화염절단(Flame dutting)도 합금물의 버닝(burning)현상을 막는 성질 때문에 잘쓰이지 않고 플라 즈마-아크(plasma-arc) 절단은 수중에서 이루어질 경우 절단끝이 산화되지 않는 좋은 절단면을 얻을 수 있으나 수중에서 사용해야 하는 어려움이 있다. 레이저를 이용한 가공은 절단폭이 작아 재료의 손실이 적으며 복잡한 형상의 절단도쉽고 공구의손실이 없는등 많은 장점이 있어서 사용이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 스테인리스 강의 절단메커니즘에대한 이해를 돕기 위해 절단가공에 큰 영향을 끼치는 레이저 출력, 절단속도, 절단가스의 압력, 재질, 절단두께를 절단변수로채택하여 절단을 수행하였다. 절단결과를 비교 검토하여 절단변수가 절단에 미치는 영향을 분석하였고 최적의 절단을 얻는 가공조건을 제시하였다.

Stainless steel type 304L has been nitrided in the low pressure (600Pa) and high nitrogen (80% $N_2$+20% $H_2$) environment for 5 hours by the square-wave-pulsed-d.c. plasma as a function of temperature $400{\sim}550^{\circ}C$ and pulsation. At the lower temperature range of $400{\sim}500^{\circ}C$ and at the relatively high ratio of pulse duration to pulse period. "S-phase" has been developed in the form of thin nitrided surface layer which has many cracks, leading to be nearly impossible for the industrial anti-wear and anti-corrosion applications. At the higher temperature up to $550^{\circ}C$ with the increasing ratio of the pulse duration to pulse period up to $50{\mu}s/100{\mu}s$, the nitrided layer, whose growth rate has increased also, has been composed mainly of CrN and $Fe_4N$ phases and has become thick, uniform and nearly crack-free.

The deformation behavior of stainless steel-clad aluminum sheet metals under uniaxial tension has been investigated. The differences in mechanical properties such as elastic modulus, flow stress and plastic strain ratio, of component layers of the composite sheet gave rise to warping of the tensile specimens. The warping has been analyzed by FEM and the total force and momentum equilibria. The analyzed radii of curvature of the warped specimens were smaller than the measured data possibly due to elastic recovery during unloading. The differences in mechanical properties may also give rise to transverse stresses in the component layers. The transverse stresses have been analyzed on the assumption of isostrain and by the FEM in which the warping has been taken into account. The transverse stresses calculated by the FEM were lower than those by the isostrain hypothesis due to stress relaxation by the warping and turned out to be negligible compared with the longitudinal stresses. Consequently, the flow stresses of the composite sheets follow the rule of mixtures.

Graphene was coated on austenitic and martensitic stainless steels to simulate the metallic bipolar plate of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). Graphene oxide (GO) was synthesized and was reduced to reduced graphene oxide (rGO) via a hydrazine process. rGO was confirmed by FE-SEM, Raman spectroscopy and XPS. Interfacial contact resistance (ICR) between the bipolar plate and the gas diffusion layer (GDL) was measured to confirm the electrical conductivity. Both ICR and corrosion current density decreased on graphene coated stainless steels. Corrosion resistance was also improved with immersion time in cathodic environments and satisfied the criteria of the Department of Energy (DOE), USA. The total concentrations of metal ions dissolved from graphene coated stainless steels were reduced. Furthermore hydrophobicity was improved by increasing the contact angle.
