Yilmaz, A. (author), He, X. (author), Pletincx, Sven (author), Hauffman, Tom (author), Sietsma, J. (author), Gonzalez Garcia, Y. (author) The role of prior austenite grain size (PAGS) on the passive layer properties of martensitic steels is studied. Electron backscatter diffraction analysis shows that PAGS between 5 and 66 µm were obtained after applying different heat treatments. The barrier properties of passive film deteriorate with grain refinement up to 28 µm, attributed to...
