Microstructure and corrosion properties of the AISI 904L weld cladding obtained by the electro slag process

The AISI 904L steel is a superaustenitic stainless steel, which presents a good combination of properties like high strength, weldability, and good corrosion resistance. Despite its wide use in several industrial segments, the literature reporting the performance of claddings deposited with this all...
