Mr. Da Silva et al., The use of thermomagnetic analysis for detection quantification of 475 degrees C embrittlement of duplex stainless steels, J MAGN MAGN, 226, 2001, pp. 1103-1105
A duplex stainless steel was aged at 475 degreesC for different times up to
500 h. The thermal embrittlement was investigated by thermomagnetic analys
is using a vibrating sample magnetometer and a thermomagnetic balance. The
results obtained with the two equipment were similar and show that the Curi
e temperature increases-with the ageing time. Relationships between T-c and
mechanical properties (hardness and toughness) were proposed. (C) 2001 Els
