Description

An analytical method of precipitates/inclusions existing a few μm from the surface in steel sheets has been established. Less than 0.1 g of a steel surface was electrolyzed, and the extracted precipitates/inclusions were decomposed with 2-step microwave digestion (1st step with H2SO4 and 2nd step with HF-HNO3). Al, Ti, Mn, Cu, Nb, V and Mo in the sample solution was determined by ICP-MS. The lower limits of detection in the surface of the steel sample were less than 1 μg g-1 for all elements that formed precipitates/inclusions. Furthermore, the concentration of the chelating agent (acetylacetone) in the electrolyte was reduced to 0.2%, which enabled us to quantitatively extract precipitates/inclusions that were unstable in the conventional 10% AA electrolyte. The procedure was applied to steel samples before and after annealing, and depth profiles of the precipitates/inclusions were obtained.<br>
