Abstract

The chromium composition along the grain boundaries of sensitized austenitic stainless steel are calculated using several different quantitative theories of sensitization. The results of the calculations are compared to measured values of the chromium composition along the grain boundary in an effort to assess the validity of the various theories. The experimental results point out two facts not previously emphasized in prior studies: (1) the amount of carbide precipitation required to sensitize austenitic stainless steel is small; (2) significant de-sensitization does not occur until after large amountsof carbide precipitation have occurred.
