E. Otero et al., RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MICROSTRUCTURE AND HIGH-TEMPERATURE CORROSION BEHAVIOR OF A X20CRMOV 12-1-STAINLESS-STEEL, Materials at high temperatures, 13(2), 1995, pp. 93-98
A study of the corrosion kinetics of a X20CrMoV 12-1 heat resistant st
ainless steel, at temperatures between 973 and 1273 K, has been carrie
d out. The kinetic laws that rule the process and the corresponding co
nstants for each temperature have been determined. The relation k = f(
T) has also been established for the kinetic laws obtained. The result
s are justified by the microstructural changes observed during heat tr
eatment.
