    Abstract: An investigation was carried out to determine the effect of soaking time during sensitization on the Mechanical properties of Austenitic stainless steels [1]. The selected samples of AISI 316 and AISI 304 were cut into several pieces so that different amount of sensitization was introduced into the different pieces. To induce sensitization, the sam...

    Abstract: Use of natural material for development of sound absorbers received considerable significance since in past few years. Natural materials are preferred due to their ease of availability, low environmental impact, distinctive internal structure and reusability. One such natural material Peanut shell is made up of natural cellulose fibers and has good... Show More

    Abstract: An experimental analysis was carried out to investigate the corrosivity of sensitized welded and unwelded austenitic stainless steel AISI 316, in oxidizing (H2SO4) and non-oxidizing (HCL) media. The selected samples were cut into several equal pieces. To induce sensitization, the samples were heated and soaked at 750°C at different soaking time int... Show More
