Abstract

The composition of M23C6 precipitates in thermally treated AlSl 304 stainless steel was investigated as a function of ageing time at T=600 and 650° C using X-ray fluorescence induced by electron bombardment. With increasing ageing time, it appears that the M23C6 precipitates become progressively enriched in Cr and depleted in Fe. However, a tendency towards saturation appears, the Cr content being higher at T=650° C.
