Abstract

The relationship between evolution in grain boundary characteristics and intergranular corrosion properties of cold rolled 443 ultra-pure ferritic stainless steel was investigated. The results showed that low-angle (LA) grain boundaries, special grain boundaries (SGB), and high-angle (HA) grain boundaries had a high intergranular corrosion sensitivity after cold deformation in reducing acid medium. In oxidative acid medium, the LA and SGB boundaries had a high intergranular corrosion resistance in comparison to HA boundaries, and their inhibitory effect on the corrosion continuance of the dynamic recrystallization high-angle (RHA) grain boundaries can improve the corrosion resistance of the RHA grain boundaries.
