2. Physical properties and mechanical characteristics

2.1 Martensitic stainless steels

Martensitic stainless steels are almost always used in a quenched and tempered state. The curves in Figure 35 show the evolution of mechanical properties: $R_{m}$ (breaking strength in N · mm ^–2 ), $R_{p0,2}$ (yield...
