The microstructure and deformation behavior in 22Cr-0.2N micro-duplex stainless steels with various Ni and Mn contents were compared using by OM, TEM, and XRD. The 22Cr-0.2N duplex stainless steel plates were fabricated and hot rolled, followed by annealing treatment at the temperature range of $1,000-1,100^{\circ}C$. All the samples showed the common strain hardening behaviour during the tensile test at a room temperature. The steels tested at the temperatures of $-30^{\circ}C$ or $-50^{\circ}C$ showed a distinct inflection point in the stress-strain curves, which should be resulted from the formation of strain-induced martensite(SIM) of austenite phase. This was confirmed by TEM observations. The onset strain of a inflection point in a stress-strain curve should be depended up the value of $M_d30$. With the decrease of the tensile test temperature, the inflection point appeared earlier, and the strength and fracture strain were higher. The tensile behaviour was discussed from the point of austenite stability of the micro-duplex stainless steels with the different Ni and Mn content.

In this work, an integrated model including molecular dynamics and chemical rate theory was implemented to calculate the growth of point defect clusters(PDC) and copper-rich precipitates(CRP) which could change the mechanical properties of reactor pressure vessel(RPV) steels in a nuclear power plant. A number of time-dependent differential equations were established and numerically integrated to estimate the evolution of irradiation defects. The calculation showed that the concentration of the vacancies was higher than that of the self-interstitial atoms. The higher concentration of vacancies induced a formation of the CRPs in the later stage. The size of the CRPs was used to estimate the mechanical property changes in RPV steels, as is the same case with the PDCs. The calculation results were compared with the measured values of yield strength change and Charpy V-notch transition temperature shift, which were obtained from the surveillance test data of Korean light water reactors(LWRs). The estimated values were in fair agreement with the experimental results in spite of the uncertainty of the modeling parameters.

Hot dip metallic coated steels like as galvanized (GI), zinc-aluminium (GL) and aluminium coated steels are mostly used where corrosion resistance is needed. There are two kinds (type 1 and type 2) of aluminium coated steel being commercially used among them. Type 1 aluminium coated steel is coated with an Al-5~11 wt%Si alloy and Type 2 aluminium coated steel consists of commercially pure aluminium. Type 1 Al coated steel is generally used in automotive components and electrical appliances while type 2 aluminium coated steel is mainly used in construction applications such as building cladding panels, air conditioning and ventilation system. In this study, Type 1 aluminium coated steels have tested by accelerated conditions (salt spray or corrosive gas) and outdoor exposure condition in order to understand their corrosion behaviour. Due to the distinct corrosion mechanism of Al which exposes to the severe chloric condition, Salt Spray Test cannot predict the ordinary atmospheric corrosion of Al based coated materials. In addition, the test results and their corrosion feature of Al coated steel sheets will be discussed comparing with other metallic coated steel sheets of GI and GL.

The corrosion damage of materials in marine environment mainly occurs by Cl^- ions due to the breakdown of passive films. Additionally, various characteristics in seawater such as salinity, temperature, immersion time, flow rate, and biological activity also affect corrosion characteristics. In this study, the corrosion characteristics of stainless steels (STS 304 and STS 316L) and anodized aluminum alloys (AA 3003 and AA 6063) were evaluated with seawater temperature parameters. A potentiodynamic polarization experiment was conducted in a potential range of -0.25 V to 2.0 V at open circuit potential (OCP). Corrosion current density and corrosion potential were obtained through the Tafel extrapolation method to analyze changes in corrosion rate due to temperature. Corrosion behavior was evaluated by measuring weight loss before/after the experiment and also observing surface morphology through a scanning electronic microscope (SEM) and 3D microscopy. Weight loss, maximum damage depth and pitting damage increased as seawater temperature increased, and furthermore, the tendency of higher corrosion current density with an increase of temperature attributed to an increase in corrosion rate. There was lower pitting damage and lower corrosion current density for anodized aluminum alloys than for stainless steels as the temperature increased.

In this paper, evaluation and development of corrosion resistant materials for smokestacks is summarized mainly on the basis of the author's experimental results. Operating environments of smokestacks and the problems of conventional lining materials for smokestacks are described briefly. The emphasis is focused upon the evaluation and development of recently developed corrosion resistant steels such as YUS260 for heavy oil fired smokestacks, WELACC5 for LNG fired smokestacks and NSL310MoCu Clad steel for coal fired smokestacks. Corrosion resistance of these steels under laboratory corrosion testing environments and actual environments are evaluated. Finally future problems of corrosion resistant materials for smokestacks are touched on briefly.

Effects of retained austenite contents on ductility of medium carbon spring steels according to steel alloy compositions and heat treatment conditions were studied. Contents of retained austenite varied with steel compositions and heat treatment conditions, and some retained austenite were found to transform to martensite on stress. Reduction of area (RA) increased with contents of retained austenite, then saturated through its maximum, and subsequently decreased. Increase in RA with retained austenite contents could be due to crack blunting effect by retained austenite on stress, however, more contents of martensite transformed from retained austenite in its higher contents could cause decrease in RA.

Results of corrosion testing for different grades of titanium, copper, zinc, alluminium alloys and steels after two years of outdoor exposure under humid tropical urban and marine conditions have been presented and discussed. Mass loss and corrosion product characteristics for the exposed specimens at Hanoi testing site with high humidity and Nhatrang marine stations (at 100 and 1,000 meters distances from sea) with different airborne salinities (35.9 and $90.0mg/m^2.d$ respectively) have been selected for investigation. From time dependence of the specimen mass loss and corrosion product characteristics, the strong influence of environmental parameters upon durability for the investigated metals and alloys has been demonstrated. Only titanium alloys show high resistance to the marine conditions. All the other specimens (copper, zinc, alluminium alloys and steels) have been underwent strong deterioration under influence of aerosol salinity. Results of corrosion products analysis have been also presented for characterization of environmental impact on the metal degradation processes.

Hot-dip galvannealed sheet (GA) with high strength of $45kg/mm^2$ in tensile strength, has developed for automotive applications. However, for a successful application, the powdering behaviour of GA must be minimized. The powdering of galvannealed coatings was reduced as the silicon content in the steel increased. Rapid heating and rapid cooling rate during the galvannealing process improved the powdering resistance due to the suppression of not only the ξ phase, but also the $ \Gamma _1$, phase. An analysis of the Fe-Zn alloy phases and its relation to the powdering behaviour are discussed with SEM micrographs.

In this paper, the real-time prediction of high temperature creep life was carried out for the friction welded joints of dissimilar heat resistintg steels (CulCr0.5Zr-STS316L). Various life prediction methods such as LMP (Larson-Miller Parameter) and ISM (initial strain method) were applied. The creep behaviors of those steels and the welds under static load were examined by ISM combined with LMP at 300, 400 and 50$0^{\circ}C$, and the relationship between these two methods was investigated. A real-time creep life (tsub/r/, hr) prediction equation by initial strain ($\varepsilon_0$, %) under any creep stress ($\sigma$, MP$\alpha$) at any high temperature (T, K) was developed

The effects of post-oxidation and sulfnitriding treatments on the phase transformation in the nitrided case of tool steels have been studied. Dense and compact $Fe_3O_4$ layer was formed at the outer surface of nitride compound layer by post-oxidation treatment and multi layer of iron sulfide(FeS) was formed in the compound layer by sulfnitriding treatment. The surface hardness decreased because of formation of the soft oxide or sulfide at the nitride surface. Diffusion layer of nitride case was not affected by post-oxidation treatment or sulfnitriding treatment of nitrided alloy tool steels.
