Duplex stainless steels are typically known to have a dualphase microstructure that contains both ferrite and austenite grains. This so-called microstructure offers a uniquely beneficial combination ...

Changing the carbon content of the alloy changes the microstructure of the pearlite and hence the mechanical properties of the alloy. The vertical alloy composition line on the partial phase diagram ...

Duplex 2205 is a two-phase, austenitic (γ) and ferritic (α) stainless steel alloyed with 5 to 6% Ni, 3% Mo and 22% Cr. It is characterized by general corrosion in harsh environments, excellent ...

DP steels contain islands of hard martensitic second phase in a ferritic matrix. Steel strength improves when the volume fraction of hard second phases increases. The formation of DP steels involves ...
