This investigation is to develop the nickel-free high manganese austenitic heat resisting steel. The effect of alloying elements on the forgeability, microstructure, creep rupture life, oxidation resistance, PbO corrosion resistance and sulfidation resistance was investigated. It was found that the 12M41 alloy whose composition was 12% Mn, 17% Cr, 4.5% W, 0.9% Mo, 0.3% Nb, 0.3% C, 0.6% N, 0.01 % B exhibited good hot workability, creep rupture life and corrosion resistance. |
