Abstract
The corrosion behavior of type 304L and type 316L austenitic stainless steels, produced by powder metallurgy, when exposed to a ferric chlor ide solution was studied. The exposures were conducted according to AS TM G48-76, Method A. The influence of ferric chloride concentration an d exposure temperature on the corrosion kinetics of these materials wa s evaluated. A mechanism is proposed to explain the associated morphol ogy observed in the microstructures produced after exposure of these P IM alloys to the aggressive medium.
