Avoidance of hot cracks and seam quality improvement of CrïºNi steels
Authors: Dr.-Ing. Niyameddin Süleymanov, Dr.-Ing. Driss Bartout
In a lot of different industrial fields such as the electronics industry, the
automobile and aerospace industries, energy generation as well as toolmaking,
the most stringent requirements are set on the materials and
workpieces to be processed. In many cases, the design necessitates components
in energy conversion installations (e.g. conventional steam power
stations or gas turbines) which are made of materials exhibiting a sufficient
elevated-temperature strength and corrosion resistance. Very often, such
components must withstand the thermal, mechanical and chemical loads
at the high working temperatures. The Cr-Ni steels are very popular here.
They combine good mechanical properties with good corrosion resistance
in moderately aggressive media.
