Susceptibility of low-carbon Cr‑Ni steel to intercrystalline corrosion
Abstract
Steel 000Kh16N20 is not susceptible to ICC with less than 0.008% C or with Nb/C≥17.Alloying with around 2% molybdenum and tungsten reduces susceptibility to ICC somewhat. The steel is susceptible to ICC at higher temperatures.The higher the nickel content, the lower the premissible carbon content at which the steel is not susceptible to ICC.
