Abstract
The effect of aging at 700 °C for various times on the intergranular corrosion behavior of LDX 2404 duplex stainless steel is investigated by morphological observation and electrochemical detection. Scanning electronic microscopy and transmission electronic microscopy analysis reveal that Cr2N, M23C6 and the sigma and chi phases nucleate simultaneously at the initial stages of aging. The granular particles of sigma phase grow larger but fewer with the increase of aging time. The electrochemical detection results show that intergranular corrosion become more severe and the corrosion type evolves from intergranular corrosion into general corrosion as the holding time extends to 48 h.
