The hardness and corrosion resistance of the martensitic stainless steel X30Cr13 depend directly on the applied heat treatment. This article describes and discusses the relationships between alloy composition, thermodynamic phase stabilities, heat treatment parameters, resulting microstructures, and achievable corrosion resistance. To investigate these

Failure Investigation of Alloy 625 Sockolets After Prolonged Service in an Ammonia Cracker Unit
The failure of the sockolets was caused by intergranular cracking and fracture. The thick and highly brittle nitrided layer formed intergranular surface cracks, which propagated along grain boundaries into the base alloy substrate due to the presence of brittle Cr‐rich carbides. ABSTRACT Several sockolets of Alloy 625 operating at 540°C in contact with

Cu/diamond heat spreaders are limited by low thermal boundary conductance. Using DFT + DMM, we identify the phonon‐transport factors governing TBC and show that optical–phonon contributions and branch conversion are essential. High‐k $k$ carbides (B4C, WC) and residual B and Cr improve interfacial heat transfer, enabling robust performance versus ...
