The study of heterostructured materials (HSMs) answered one of the most pressing
questions in the metallurgical field:“is it possible to greatly increase both the strength and the …

Steels with sub-micrometre grain sizes usually possess high toughness and strength, which
makes them promising for lightweighting technologies and energy-saving strategies. So far …

High-Mn austenitic steels, usually deformed via the TWIP (twinning induced plasticity)
mechanism, suffer high cost and other technical issues (eg, hot-dip galvanizing, welding …

Biomedical metals are widely used as implant materials in the human or animal body to
repair organs and restore function, such as heart valves, meninges, peritoneum and artificial …

The evolution of mechanical properties of an AISI 316L austenitic stainless steel was studied
during cold rolling via unidirectional and cross-rolling routes. It was shown that the low …

The effects of addition of different Cu content (0, 2.5 and 3.5 wt%) on mechanical properties,
corrosion resistance and antibacterial performance of 316L austenitic stainless steel (SS) …

The oxidation behavior of 316L stainless steel exposed at 400, 600 and 800 C air for 100,
500 and 1000 h was investigated using different characterization techniques. Weight gain …

Abstract Effects of Ni/Cu replacement and subsequent aging treatment on tensile and
hydrogen embrittlement (HE) properties were investigated in Fe-Cr-Ni austenitic stainless …

A Cu precipitation-mediated austenitic transformation during ageing treatment of a 15–5 PH
stainless steel is revealed through atom probe tomography, in situ synchrotron X-ray …
