Duplex stainless steels (DSS) are high strength corrosion resistant materials used in the chemical and petrochemical industries. When compared to conventional austenitic grades (AISI 304L, 316L, 317L), DSS are more expensive, but present higher strength levels and are more resistant to Cl − environments. In the present work it was investigated how microstructural variations can affect the...
