Dear All, I have done my FESEM-EDS analysis of steel sample and result shows- 70% Fe + 15% Cr + 10% Mn + 2% Cu + 0.3% Ni + 0.5% N +0.2% C. I am confused with the high % of Mn. Please help me to finding out exact steel grade and its industrial use, thank you
Was there no-one at your institute that could help you with this query?
I don't know about the exact steel grade and it's name, but a bit of Googling came up with the following:
https://www.jmcampbell.com/tip-of-the-month/2013/10/the-stainless-steel-family-an-overview/ which yield the 20x series of steels.
I expect you might have to look through some tables of steel composition supplied by the steel manufacturers out there. You might also want to look up a searchable table, e.g. http://www.matweb.com/search/CompositionSearch.aspx.
Thank You Matthew Wheal, I found this steel was 200 series, but in my institute material department is not there so I was a little confused with a high percentage of Mn. Also on google, not more research papers found on 200 steel.
