5000 series aluminium alloys and austenitic stainless steels have excellent corrosion resistance and sufficient strength, which are widely used as materials for marine equipment and their parts in the marine environment. The corrosion characteristics of materials are important factors for selecting the appropriate material due to fluid component changes in the estuarine and coastal areas where seawater and fresh water are mixed. Therefore, for 5083 Al alloy, STS304 and STS316L widely used in the marine environment, anodic polarization experiments were performed to compare the corrosion damage characteristics of each material by three kinds of solutions of 100 % tap water, 50 % tap water+50 % natural seawater and 100 % natural seawater. As a result of the anodic polarization experiments, aluminum alloy (5083) caused locally corrosion on the surface in the tap water, and corrosion damage occurred all over the surface when the seawater was included. Stainless steels (STS304 and STS316L) presented almost no corrosion damage in tap water, but they grew pitting corrosion damage with increasing seawater concentration. STS316L showed better corrosion resistance than STS304.

Laser welding was carried out on austenitic 304 (STS 304) and 22 APU stainless steels. In this case, the differences between the corrosion characteristics of the welding zones of the two stainless steels were investigated using electrochemical methods. The Vickers hardness values of the weld metal (WM) zones in both cases, the STS 304 and 22 APU stainless steels, showed relatively higher values than those of other welding zones. The corrosion current densities of the heat affected zone (HAZ) of the 22 APU and the base metal (BM) zone of the STS 304 exhibited the highest values compared to the other welding zones. It is generally accepted that when STS 304 stainless steel is welded using a general welding method, intergranular corrosion is often observed at the grain boundary because of its chromium depletion area. However, when laser welding was performed on both the STS 304 and 22 APU stainless steels, no intergranular corrosion was observed at any of the welding zones. Consequently, it is considered that the intergranular corrosion of stainless steel can be controlled with the application of laser welding.

N- or O-doped STS304 stainless films were synthesized by an unbalanced magnetron sputtering process with various argon and reactive gas ($N_2$, $O_2$) mixtures. These films were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and Knoop microhardness tester. The Results from X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that a STS304 stainless steel film synthesized without reactive gas using a bulk STS304 stainless steel target had a ferrite bcc structure ($\alpha$ phase), while the N-doped STS304 stainless film was consisted of a nitrogen supersaturated fcc structure, which hsa a strong ${\gamma}$(200) phase. In the O-doped films, oxide Phases ($Fe_2$$O_3$ and $Cr_2$$O_3$) were observed from the films synthesized under an excess $O_2$ flow rate of 9sccm. AES analysis showed that nitrogen content in N-doped films increased as the nitrogen flow rate increased. Approximately 43 at.%N in the N-doped film was measured using a nitrogen flow rate of 8sccm. In O-doped film, approximately 15 at.%O was detected using a $O_2$ flow rate of 12sccm. the Knoop microhardness value of N-doped film using a nitrogen flow rate of 8 sccm was measured to be approximately $H_{ k}$ 1200 and this high value could be attributed to the fine grain size and increased residual stress in the N-doped film.

For many years and primarily for economical reasons, Dissimilar Metal Welds have been used as transition joints in a variety of equipment and applications. But Dissimilar Metal Welds have several fabrication and metallurgical drawbacks that can often lead to in-service failures. For example, the most pronounced fabrication faults are hot cracks. Laser welding techniques have been characterised for various materials. In this paper, the laser weldability of STS304 stainless steel and SM45C at dissimilar metal welds using a continuous wave Nd：YAG laser are experimentally investigated. An experimental study was conducted to determine effects of welding parameters, on eliminating or reducing the extent welding zone formation at dissimilar metal welds and to optimize those parameters that have the most influence parameters such as focus length, power, beam speed, shielding gas, and wave length of laser were tested

Nitrided compound layer and diffusion layer structure were observed by SEM. The compound layer and the constituent of nitrided surface of STS 304, STS 316, STS 410 and SACM 645 steel were analysed using EMPA and XRD respectively. The depth of nitriding layer that is obtained from similar nitriding condition decrease in the order of SACM 645 > STS 410 > STS 316 > STS 304. Result of phase transformation of the nitrided at $550^{\circ}C$ by XRD analysis were as follows; The austenitic stainless steel was mainly consist of $Cr_2N$ accompanying with $Fe_4N$ and $Fe_{2-3}N$ phase and martensitic stainless steel was mainly consist of present $Fe_{2-3}N+Cr_2N$ phase, but SACM 645 steel was $Fe_{2-3}N$ phase present only.

The aim of this study is to analyze the welds characteristics of the 205 stainless steel pipe for application of street pole material. The welds corrosion behavior of STS 205 pipe in 0.1 N sulphuric acid solution and 5% NaCl solution at room temperature was studied using both salt spray test and potentiodynamic polarization experiment. The morphology and components of corrosion products on surface of STS 205 pipe welds were investigated using SEM/EDX. The tensile strength and yield strength values of STS 205 plate were 715 MPa and 369 MPa respectively. The microvickers hardness values of STS 205 pipe welds were slightly increased than that of STS 304 pipe welds. Corrosion current density($I_{corr.}$) and critical current density($I_{crit.}$) values of STS 205 pipe welds in 3.5% NaCl solution were $1.89{\times}10^{-6}$ $A/cm^2$ and $15.8{\times}10 ^{-6}$ $A/cm^2$. The corrosion resistance of SIS 205 pipe welds was similar to its STS 304 pipe welds. The STS 205 and 304 pipe welds passive films were chromium oxide. Especially, the STS 205 pipe welds showed good corrosion resistance in 0.1 N sulphuric acid. This is attributed to the forming of protective chromium oxide on the surface of STS 205 pipe welds.
