Özet
Purpose - The paper aims to clarify the effect of bonding on the corrosion behavior and mechanical properties of AISI 304 austenitic stainless steel. Design/methodology/approach - The commercially available steel was subjected to a bonding treatment with Ekabor III powders at temperatures of 1,223-1,273 K with bonding durations of 2-4 h. Microstructural characterization of the steel was carried out with optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analyses. Static immersion corrosion tests were made using a 10 percent H2SO4 acid solution and salt spray tests were carried out in accord with the ASTM B-117 standard. Findings - Grain boundary precipitation of carbides was observed in the transition zone beneath the boride layers. The corrosion resistance of the steel against the acid solution increased to about seven times its untreated value with the bonding treatment. Research limitations/implications - The boride coating improved the corrosion resistance of the AISI 304 stainless steel against acidic media, but suffered from spalling in the salt spray test. Future work will focus on improving the adhesion between the coating and the substrate by changing the parameters for the bonding process. Practical implications - Pack bonding is a simple, environmentally friendly coating process and can be recommended for use in small and medium enterprises. The boride coatings deposited have potential in further improving the wear and corrosion resistance of stainless steels. Originality/value - The outcome of the research is of great importance for the industry using wear- and corrosion-resistant coatings.
