Improving the sensitisation resistance of ferritic stainless steels

An analysis based on the moments theorem of bonding in transition metals indicates that addition of Sc and Y, possibly in the form of a master alloy, to other ferrite-stabilizing elements, Ti and Nb in steels is worth investigating experimentally. The two elements could be promising with regard to i...

Description
Summary:An analysis based on the moments theorem of bonding in transition metals indicates that addition of Sc and Y, possibly in the form of a master alloy, to other ferrite-stabilizing elements, Ti and Nb in steels is worth investigating experimentally. The two elements could be promising with regard to improving the sensitisation resistance of ferritic stainless steels.
