Composition equivalents of stainless steels understood via gamma stabilizing efficiency

Abstract The phase-type of a stainless steel is generally predicted by equivalent equations in terms of a major austenitic (γ) or ferritic (α) stabilizer Ni or Cr. The present paper attempts to understand the equivalent methods in stainless steels via the slopes of the phase boundary lines separatin...
