Effectsof carbon content on the weldability of B-containing 620 grade high Cr ferritic cast steels were investigated. Cast steel with lower carbon content of 0.07% showed lower HAZ hardness because of the formation of lower carbon martensite in HAZ. It also showed less solidification cracking susceptibility in weld metal because of the formation of delta ferrite. However, hot ductility showed no difference between cast steels with lower and higher carbon contents. Cast steel with lower carbon content showed greater HAZ softening after PWHT in the region heated between AC1 and AC3 because of its higher base metal hardness.

Exhaust manifold is a very important component that is directly connected to air environment pollution and that requires strict mechanical properties such as high temperature fatigue and oxidation. Among stainless steels, the ferritic stainless steel with body-centered cubic structure shows excellent resistance of stress-corrosion cracking, ferromagnetic at room temperature, very excellent cold workability and may not be enhanced by heat treatment. The microstructural characteristics of four cast ferritic stainless steels which are high heat-resistant materials, were analyzed. By comparing and evaluating the mechanical properties at room temperature and high temperature in a range of 400℃~800℃, a database was established to control and predict the required properties and the mechanical properties of the final product. The precipitates of cast ferritic stainless steels were analyzed and the high-temperature deformation characteristics were evaluated by comparative analysis of hardness and tensile characteristics of four steels at room temperature and from 400℃ to 800℃.

Weldability of high Cr ferritic steel for $620^{\circ}C$ grade turbin casing were investigated. The effect of carbon content on the cold and hot cracking susceptibility and HAZ softening was determined. The cast steel with higher carbon content showed higher HAZ hardness because of the dissolution of cabonitrides during welding thermal cycle. Moreover, it showed higher solidification cracking sensitivity because of the little S-ferrite formation in weld metal. Both steels showed HAZ softening at $900^{\circ}C$ peak temperature after PWHT.

We aimed to develop a Fe-($16{\sim}19$)Cr-($0.1{\sim}0.6$)Ti-($0.1{\sim}0.6$)Nb stainless steel for automotive exhaust parts with high corrosion resistance. The alloys with high Cr content showed high resistance to general corrosion and also localized corrosion. The increase of Ti and Nb contents resulted in a linear increase in the general corrosion resistance, while the pitting potential was improved by addition of these elements up to about 0.4 wt.%. The low-carbon Fe-17Cr-0.4Ti-0.4Nb alloy annealed at $850^{\circ}C$ and air-cooled was considered to be the optimum alloy for our purpose with the critical anodic current density of $247{\mu}A/cm^2$ in 0.05 M $H_2SO_4$ solution and the pitting potential of 310 mVSCE in 0.2 M NaCl solution.

A Study on microstructure and elevated temperature strength of 18Cr-2Mo ferritic stainless steel castings strengthened by alloying small amounts of titanium and carbon, has been conducted. The morphology of titanium carbides showed spherical in shape and their distribution depended on the amount of alloying elements. Maximum density ($7{\times}10^5/cm^2$) of titanium carbides has been formed in the alloy containing 2.0 wt.% titanium and 0.5 wt.% carbon as alloying elements and the size of carbide particles is in the range of 0.5 to $3.0\;{\mu}m$. High temperature tensile and fatigue strength of this alloy were the highest among the alloys tested in this research. The fracture mode of the alloys containing alloying elements less that 2.0 wt.% titanium and 0.5 wt.% carbon showed intercrystalline fracture at room temperature, while the alloys containing higher amounts of alloying elements showed transcrystalline fracture. All of the alloys showed creep or ductile rupture mode at elevated temperature.
