TLDR
Using residual activity technique, diffusion of carbon-14 in 304, 347, and 316 steels has been studied in the temperature range of 450-1200°C as mentioned in this paper, and the results indicate that the segregation of carbon is due to the preferential precipitation of Cr23C6 along the grain boundaries of stainless steels.

Colossal carbon supersaturation in austenitic stainless steels carburized at low temperature

TL;DR: A low-temperature (470 °C) gas-phase carburization treatment, developed by the Swagelok Company, increases the surface hardness of 316 austenitic stainless steels from ≈200 to ≈1000 HV25 and improves the corrosion resistance as discussed by the authors.

Corrosion of 316 stainless steel in high temperature molten Li2BeF4 (FLiBe) salt

TL;DR: In this paper, corrosion tests of 316 stainless steel were performed in the potential primary coolant, molten Li2BeF4 (FLiBe) at 700°C for an exposure duration up to 3000h.

The non-equilibrium segregation of boron during the recrystalization of Nb-treated HSLA steels

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of boron segregation on recrystallization was investigated in two Nb and two nb-free steels, and the results indicated that the addition of B to a Nb steel retards the recrallization of austenite after high temperature deformation to a significant degree.

Tribological properties of stainless steels treated by colossal carbon supersaturation

TL;DR: In this article, the tribological properties of the colossal supersaturation carburized Type 316 stainless steel were investigated and benchmarked against non-treated steel, showing that carburised surfaces exhibited higher hardness, higher elastic modulus, and higher resistance to acid etching than non-treatment surfaces.

Enhanced Carbon Diffusion in Austenitic Stainless Steel Carburized at Low Temperature

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a calibrated scanning Auger microprobe (SAM) analysis of cross-sectional specimens under dynamic sputtering to determine the fraction-depth profile of carbon.
