A Review of Austenite Memory Effect in HAZ of B Containing 9% Cr Martensitic Heat Resistant Steel

During the welding process of B containing 9% Cr martensitic heat resistant steel (9Cr-B steel), austenite memory effect (referred to that the prior austenite grains in the heat affected zone (HAZ) after welding inherit the shape and size of prior austenite grains before welding) occurs in its norma...
