Seamless Tube Externally Cladded with SS

Image by scanning electron microscopy of the metallurgically bonded interface of the composite seamless tube (carbon steel externally claded with stainless steel), in the side of the stainless steel where a strain hardening effect plus a carbide precipitation in twins is shown. The hardness of this region (279 HV0.3) is a lot higher than the value obtained out of this region (167 HV0.3) for the same stainless steel.

Description

The externally cladded probably corresponds to a co-extruded tube, of a substrate externally cladded with an (to resist the black liquor environment). The interface shows a decarburized layer at the side and a strain hardening layer at the side, with at twins, suggesting that the temperature of the was not high enough to create new grains.

Micrographic detail of the interface in the longitudinal section of the pipe showing the Vickers (300g) microhardness values, close to the interface in the carbon steel side and in the stainless steel side. Although the Nital etch does not allow to reveal the structure in the stainless steel side, the high hardness values show that the structure is different.
