This investigation examines the intergranular corrosion resistance of both welded and unwelded type 304, 304L, 321, 321L, and 347 alloys after various sensitizing and or stabilizing heat treatments. The intergranular corrosion resistance was characterized using ASTM A262 test methods and the double loop electrochemical potentiodynamic reactivation testing (EPR). The results show that stabilization by itself is not sufficient to render austenitic stainless steel immune to sensitization. The EPR testing demonstrates that the double loop parameters for all alloys correlate well with corrosion rates measured with the ASTM A262 Practice B test.
