Popis: |
The role of prior austenite grain size (PAGS) on the passive layer properties of martensitic steels is studied. Electron backscatter diffraction analysis shows that PAGS between 5 and 66 µm were obtained after applying different heat treatments. The barrier properties of passive film deteriorate with grain refinement up to 28 µm, attributed to increased donor density and a decrease in the fraction of γ-Fe2O3 in passive films. However, the further refinement of PAGS to 5 µm leads to improvement in the barrier properties due to the changes within the martensite structure. This improvement stems from the increase in γ-Fe2O3 fraction. |
