Casting and processing considerations
The phase balance and freedom from intermetallic phases such as sigma depend on a correct solution anneal followed by rapid quenching; slow cooling of heavy sections is the main risk. Ferrite content, impact toughness and corrosion testing are frequently specified as acceptance tests and should be defined at the enquiry stage.
