The results show that corrosion resistance of the steel increases with elevating tempering temperature from 200 to 500 °C and finally, to 680 °C. Additionally, a severe shot peening (SSP) treatment was applied in the sample with the best corrosion behavior (TT680), in order to modify the grain structure. Results evidence that corrosion resistance of the TT680 sample decreases after the applied SSP treatment (10A and 5000% coverage). Corrosion behavior is discussed through the different microstructural singularities induced both the heat treatments and the SSP.
