The intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) in heat affected zone (HAZ) of weldable super martensitic stainless steels has been reported. The Cr-carbide precipitation surrounded by Crdepletion zone was discussed as the cause of IGSCC for Ti-free martensitic stainless steels. The Crdepletion along grain boundary in the vicinity of the surface oxide layer on HAZ formed by welding was also reported and the initiation mechanism was discussed based on the Cr-depletion of the surface area. The improvement of SCC resistance by Post Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT) has been recognized. PWHT can be effective to reduce the IGSCC susceptibility because of the healing for Cr-depletion (sensitized zone and surface area). It has been also proposed that the effect of PWHT on the propagation of IGSCC can be explained by the enrichment of molybdenum at the grain boundary, which has the positive effect for enhancing the corrosion resistance, and/or by the elimination of the harmful effect of phosphorus segregation to be drained from the grain boundary to the molybdenum enriched phase. In this study, the molybdenum precipitation behavior along grain boundary by PWHT of super martensitic stainless steels is determined in detail. The quantitative analysis by the extracted residue is carried out with the varied combination of temperatures and durations of PWHT. The relation between the IGSCC susceptibility and the molybdenum precipitation along grain boundary is discussed.
