Abstract
Abstract In this study, the influence of reversed austenite on the mechanical and corrosion resistance properties of 13Cr4NiMo martensitic stainless steel was investigated. The results reveal that the reversed austenite content in the sample increases with the increase of tempering times. The presence of an appropriate amount of reversed austenite not only improves the comprehensive mechanical properties of martensitic stainless steel but also reduces the susceptibility to pitting corrosion.
