Investigation on the Correlation between Inclusions and High Temperature Urea Corrosion Behavior in Ferritic Stainless Steel

The influence of inclusion size and number density on high-temperature urea corrosion (HTUC) behavior of ferritic stainless steels was investigated in a simulated working environment of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system in commercial vehicles. There is a positive correlation between the con...

Investigation on the Correlation between Inclusions and High Temperature Urea Corrosion Behavior in Ferritic Stainless Steel
description The influence of inclusion size and number density on high-temperature urea corrosion (HTUC) behavior of ferritic stainless steels was investigated in a simulated working environment of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system in commercial vehicles. There is a positive correlation between the control level of inclusions and the resistance of HTUC. By slightly increasing the content of Nb in ferritic stainless steels, the inclusions, especially TiN, were significantly refined, and thus displayed an improvement in HTUC resistance. The interface between inclusions and the matrix becomes a fast channel for chromium precipitation during high-temperature nitriding induced by the decomposition of urea. Chromium nitrides will precipitate around the inclusions and wrap the inclusions, which will decrease the chromium equivalent of the matrix and reduce the resistance of ferritic stainless steels to HTUC. In addition, the high-temperature oxidation accompanied with thermal fatigue also makes the inclusions more likely to become the crack nucleation source, which can accelerate the material thinning and reduce its service life.
