Electrochemical Pitting Corrosion Behavior of the Steel Matrix Induced by MnS Inclusion Precipitation in Fe–22Mn–5Al–C Low-Density Steel: Effect of Temperature
摘要
This study examines the precipitation behavior of MnS in Fe–22Mn–5Al–C steel, revealing pronounced sulfur segregation at a solid fraction of 0.96 (29.51 vs. 1.99 for Mn). MnS preferentially nucleates on the c plane of AlN, exhibiting a lattice mismatch of 5.01 pct. As the temperature increases from 25 °C to 50 °C, micro-galvanic corrosion enlarges the pit diameter from 13.93 to 19.01 μm, leading to the formation of circular corrosion areas and Fe–O–Cl products.
