Effect of Regimes of Processing Pulsed Flows of Plasma on the Corrosion Properties of Structural Steels
摘要
Abstract
An investigation is performed of the effect the treatment of a pulsed plasma flow has on samples of two shapes (flat and cylindrical) made of structural steels (St45, 40Kh, 65G, ShKh15, 40KhN2MA). Processing is done under different conditions with varying parameters (pulse duration, capacitor bank charging voltage, and the type of working gas). Data show that after treatment, corrosion resistance increases for most of the considered grades of steel. The most effective processing parameters are established for each grade of steel.
