  The samples wear tempered at 520-720 °C for 3-10 h and air cooling to investigate the effect of tempering treatment on microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of13%Cr SuperMartensitic Stainless Steel. After heat treatment, hardness and tensile strength tests were performed for investigation of mechanical properties. Moreover, optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were performed for investigation of microstructure observations. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) was carried out to measure of austenite retained in the samples. The results indicated that the optimization of mechanical properties were achieved by austenitizing treatment at 1050 °C for 1 h and water quenching and then tempering treatment at 600 °C for 3 h with air cooling.The results indicated that the optimization of mechanical properties were achieved by austenitizing treatment at 1050 °C for 1 h and water quenching and then tempering treatment at 600 °C for 3 h with air cooling.The results indicated that the optimization of mechanical properties were achieved by austenitizing treatment at 1050 °C for 1 h and water quenching and then tempering treatment at 600 °C for 3 h with air cooling.

  In this research, UNS S42000 martensitic stainless steel (SS) samples were subjected to tempering heat treatment at constant temperature of 550 oC for different time duration, ranging between 0.5 and 24 h, so as to assess the intergranular corrosion (IGC) behavior of the alloy. The microstructural characteristics and electrochemical properties of the alloys were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and anodic polarization method, respectively. The localized attack of the samples was investigated by potentiodynamic electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (PD-EIS) in the transpassive potential region. The results indicated that tempering up to 2 h would be followed by severe intergranular attack at martensite lath interfaces; however, the effect of tempering on corrosion performance of the alloys would be suppressed at prolonged tempering due to desensitization. Moreover, the PD-EIS results revealed that the charge transfer resistance (Rct) values of specimens at 1.10 V can be employed as a primary criterion in order to assess the localized attack of the martensitic SS. In this regard, the lower the Rct value at this DC bias potential, the lower the corrosion resistance to the IGC. These results were in good agreement with the SEM morphologies from the surfaces of corroded samples, indicating uniform corrosion, severe attack and desensitization for samples experiencing no-tempering, short tempering time and prolonged tempering, respectively.
