Cm - FeCl3+HCl+H2O Etched MicroDf - Dendritic
Micrographic detail of the cored alpha structure with light segregation at intergranular regions (light layer at grain boundaries), and a white euctetoid structure (alpha and delta) at interdendritic space. This structure is in a region close to the ring surface, where the solidification was quicker.

Cm - FeCl3+HCl+H2O Etched MicroDf - Grain boundary intermetallics
Micrographic detail of the cored alpha structure with strong segregation at intergranular regions (dark layer at grain boundaries), and a white euctetoid structure (alpha and delta) at interdendritic space. This structure is in a region close to the center of the ring, where the solidification was slower.

ML00164 — Austenitic SS Casting for Valve BodyM - Austenitic Stainless SteelP - CastingAp - ValveCd - Typical manufacturing
Micrography of a longitudinal section, in the center of the valve body. The structure is austenitic with delta ferrite in interdendritic spaces. The austenite presents a cored matrix in the dendrites, indicating the chemical composition was not homogeneized during the heat treatment.

Cm - Oxalic Acid Electrolytic EtchDf - Austenite
Micrography of a longitudinal section, in the valve wall 1" thick. The structure is austenitic with delta ferrite in interdendritic spaces. The austenite is clean indicating that the homogeneization of a smaller thickness in the heat treatment is considered effective.
