Abstract
The influence has been studied of thermo-mechanical treatment, sensitization conditions, and neutron irradiation on the pitting corrosion resistance of austenitic 316LN stainless steel variants in 10% FeCl3·6H2O at 22 °C. Variants of this steel were modified with additions of nitrogen, manganese, copper, and tungsten, as well as testing cast, cold-rolled, grain boundary engineered (GBE), and as-received variants. It was found that the 316LN steel variant with additions of 0.2% N and 2% Mn had the best pitting corrosion resistance of all studied conditions. When irradiated in a light water reactor (LWR) to a maximum fluence of 3 × 1017 n/cm2 (E > 1.1 meV, Tirr < 50 °C), neutron irradiation surprisingly increased the resistance of GBE steels to pitting corrosion. An anisotropy of corrosion resistance of GBE and cold rolled steels was observed.
