Abstract
Investigations were performed of the influence of microalloying chromium-nickel deposited metal of 18-10 type with yttrium and cerium oxide on its intercrystalline corrosion resistance. A positive role of modifying by cleaning the crystal boundaries and more favorable distribution of intermetallic inclusions is demonstrated.
Keywords: chromium-nickel-molybdenum austenitic de¬posited metal, rare-earth metals, microalloying, corrosion resistance, carbon diffusion, intercrystalline corrosion, non-metallic inclusions, grain boundaries, chemical microinhomogeneity, heat treatment, chromium carbides
