To improve the mechanical properties in supermartensitic stainless steel weld deposits, suitable post weld heat treatments (PWHT) are required, since these properties are controlled by the resulting microstructure. ...

The supermartensitic stainless steels (SMSS) have a better combination of weldability, toughness and corrosion resistance than conventional martensitic and duplex stainless steels. Nevertheless, for both base material ...

To increase the toughness, ductility and resistance to localized corrosion in supermartensitic stainless steel weld deposits, suitable post weld heat treatments are required, since these properties are controlled by the ...
