Abstract
A study of sigma phase formation, its characterization, and its effect on the properties of duplex stainless steel 2205 are presented. The steel has been heat treated according to the mode: heating to a temperature of 850°C, holding during 6 h and cooling in various media, i.e., furnace, air, and water. The optical metallographic methods reveal sigma phases within the ferrite region of the steel microstructure after all the heat treatments; a slightly elevated amount of the phase is detected after cooling with the furnace. Some fine carbides and nitrides are encountered along with the sigma phase. The SEM and EDS characterization confirms that the chemistry of the sigma phase is Fe – 12.2Cr – 2.1Mo. The hardness of the water-quenched steel is 336 HB, which is 47% higher than its hardness before the heat treatment.
