An Overview of Sensitization Dynamics in Ferritic Stainless Steel Welds

Besides the problem of low ductility and poor notch toughness of ferritic stainless steel welds due to the microstructure characteristics of the weld section as a result of the weld heat input rate and the heat transfer factor, susceptibility to intergranular corrosion caused by the depletion of the...
