Abstract
Nowadays, stainless steel is one of the most important materials. Stainless steel resistance to corrosion and staining, low maintenance, relatively low cost and familiar luster make it an ideal base material for a host of commercial applications. The material usage in this project is type 304 stainless steel. This project will present the effect of different heat sensitization temperature toward microstructure, corrosion and hardness of stainless steel. Type 304 stainless steel is suit to make all types of dairy equipment such as Kitchen sink, storage tank and piping. So it always use in industry equipment that has corrosive or chemical process. Sodium chloride solution was used in cyclic polarization test. The microstructure was determined by Optical Microscope and the hardness was determined by Vicker’s Hardness Tester. Besides that, the present of some elements in the stainless steel was determined by x-ray diffraction machine. In addition, the corrosion test used was cyclic polarization. Next, a discussion, conclusion and recommendation were constructed from the result obtained. The microstructure was showed the precipitation of chromium carbide and precipitation of chromium carbide was proved by x-ray diffraction results. The hardness of the specimens was not had much different although corrosion was reduced the strength of the specimens. This is because chromium carbide is a hard phase. Lastly, the effect of sensitization was reduced the corrosion resistance of type 304 stainless steel.
