Embodiment 1

[0021] 1) Add 2m concentrated hydrochloric acid with a mass concentration of 36.5% to 30ml of concentrated nitric acid with a mass concentration of 69%, stir evenly and let it stand for 10 minutes before use.

[0022] 2) Wipe the polished surface with absorbent cotton dipped in the prepared etchant for 20 seconds, and the surface of the sample is observed to be gray in color.

[0023] 3) Rinse the sample with running water, rinse the sample with absolute ethanol, dry it with a hair dryer and observe it.

[0024] 4) Take pictures of the grain size. If you take a good picture, you can properly adjust the brightness and contrast of the picture. The purpose is to make the grain boundary darker, the contrast stronger, and the structure tend to be white and bright, so as to highlight the grain boundary morphology. The photo of its grain size is shown in image 3 .

Abstract

The invention discloses a metallographic corrosion method for a martensitic precipitation hardening stainless steel crystal boundary, wherein the stainless steel is 05Cr17Ni4Cu4Nb martensitic precipitation hardening stainless steel. The method comprises the following steps: 1, coarsely grinding, finely grinding, polishing, cleaning and drying a metallographic sample to obtain a shine scratch-freepolished surface; and 2, picking up a corrosive agent, wiping the polished surface for 15-20s, flushing, and drying, wherein the corrosive agent is prepared by pouring 2-3ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid into 30ml of concentrated nitric acid, uniformly stirring and allowing the obtained solution to stand for above 5min. According to the invention, the 05Cr17Ni4Cu4Nb martensitic precipitation hardening stainless steel crystal boundary can be intelligibly and completely displayed, and the color and the morphology of the tissue have no influences on the observation of the contour of the crystal boundary. The method has the following advantages: the crystal boundary display effect is excellent; normal temperature corrosion and no need of heating are realized; and the corrosion time is short, and only 15-20 seconds are needed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a technology in the field of metallographic inspection of metal materials, in particular to a method for metallographic corrosion of martensitic precipitation hardening stainless steel grain boundaries. Background technique [0002] The US grade of 05Cr17Ni4Cu4Nb martensitic precipitation hardening stainless steel is 17-4PH. In addition to directly obtaining martensitic structure after solution treatment, this steel is further strengthened by subsequent aging treatment to obtain precipitation hardening phase (copper-containing phase). The metallographic structure after solid solution aging is tempered sorbite with martensitic orientation + a small amount of delta ferrite + fine dispersed precipitates that are difficult to distinguish. The metallographic structure etchant of the steel is very mature, mainly including high ferric chloride + hydrochloric acid aqueous solution, aqua regia or hydrochloric acid nitric acid solution s...
