The microstructure of an (α + γ) duplex Fe-10.1Al-28.6Mn-0.46C alloy has been investigated by means of optical microscopy
and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In the as-quenched condition, extremely fine D03 particles could be observed within the ferrite phase. During the early stage of isothermal aging at 550 °C, the D03 particles grew rapidly, especially the D03 particles in the vicinity of the α/γ grain boundary. After prolonged aging at 550 °C, coarse K’-phase (Fe, Mn)3AlC precipitates began to appear at the regions contiguous to the D03 particles, and —Mn precipitates occurred on the α/γ and α/α grain boundaries. Subsequently, the grain boundary β-Mn precipitates
grew into the adjacent austenite grains accompanied by a γ→ α + β-Mn transition. When the alloy was aged at 650 °C for short
times, coarse. K-phase precipitates were formed on the α/γ grain boundary. With increasing the aging time, the α/γ grain boundary
migrated into the adjacent austenite grain, owing to the heterogeneous precipitation of the Mn-enrichedK phase on the grain boundary. However, the α/γ grain boundary migrated into the adjacent ferrite grain, even though coarse
K-phase precipitates were also formed on the α/γ grain boundary in the specimen aged at 750 °C. 相似文献

The microstructure of an (α + γ) duplex Fe-9.0Al-29.5Mn-l.2Si alloy has been investigated by means of transmission electron
microscopy. In the as-quenched condition, extremely fine D03 particles were formed within the ferrite matrix by a continuous ordering transition during quenching. After being aged at
550 °C, the extremely fine D03 particles existing in the as-quenched specimen grew preferentially along (100) directions. With increasing the aging time
at 550 °C, a (Si, Mn)-rich phase (designated as “L phase”) began to appear at the regions contiguous to the D03 particles. The L phase has never been observed in various Fe-Al-Mn, Fe-Al-Si, Fe-Mn-Si, and Mn-Al-Si alloy systems before.
When the as-quenched specimen was aged at temperatures ranging from 550 °C to 950 °C, the phase transformation sequence occurring
within the (α + D03) region as the aging temperature increases was found to be (α + D03 + L phase) → (α + D03 + A13 β-Mn)→ (B2 + D03 + A13 β-Mn)→ (B2 + A13β-Mn)→ (α + A13 β-Mn)→ (α +γ)→α. 相似文献

The tensile deformation behavior of mechanically-stabilized austenite is investigated in Fe-Mn binary alloys. A 30 pct thickness
reduction by rolling at 673 K (above the Af temperature) largely suppresses the austenite (γ) to hcp epsilon martensite (ε) transformation in 17Mn and 25Mn steels. However,
the deformation behavior of the mechanically stabilized austenite in the two alloys differs significantly. In 25Mn steel,
the onset of plastic deformation is due to the stress-induced γ→ ε transformation and results in a positive temperature dependence of the yield strength. The uniform elongation is enhanced
by the γ → ε transformation during deformation. In 17Mn steel, bccα′ martensite is deformation-induced along with e and a plateau region similar to Lüders band deformation appears at the beginning
of the stress-strain curve. The mechanical stabilization of austenite also suppresses the intergranular fracture of 17Mn steel
at low temperatures.

The microstructures of two alloys with Fe-8.0Al-29.0Mn-0.90C, one without Si and one with 1.5 wt pct Si, have been investigated
by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In the as-quenched condition, the alloy without Si is single-phase austenite;
however, some discrete particles along the austenite grain boundaries can be observed in the Si-bearing alloy. The discrete
particles have a mixture of (α + D03) phases, indicating that the Si addition enhances the formation of (α + D03) phases. This result is in disagreement with those reported by other research on Fe-Al-Mn-Si-C alloys. Transmission electron
microscopy examinations reveal that the (α + D03) phases are formed by an ordering transition during quenching. When the quenched specimen is aged at temperatures ranging
from 450 °C to 1050 °C, the phase transformation sequence occurring within the (α + D03) region as the temperature increases is found to be D03→ (D03 +K phase) → B2 → α. 相似文献

The martensite ⇌ austenite transformations were investigated in Fe-Ni-Co alloys containing about 65 wt pct Fe and up to 15
wt pct Co. A change in morphology of martensite from plate-like to lath-type occurred with increasing cobalt content; this
change in morphology correlates with the disappearance of the Invar anomaly in the austenite. The martensite-to-austenite
reverse transformation differed depending on martensite morphology. Reversion of plate-like martensite was found to occur
by simple disintegration of the martensite platelets. Reverse austenite formed from lath-type martensite was not retained
when quenched from much aboveA
s, with microcracks forming during theM→γ→M transformation. 相似文献

On the nature of eutectic carbides in Cr-Ni white cast irons 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The mechanical and tribological properties of white cast irons are strongly dependent on whether they contain M7C3 or M3C carbides (M = Fe, Cr,etc.). In an effort to improve the wear resistance of such materials, the United States Bureau of Mines has studied the effects
of adding 0.3 to 2.3 wt pct (throughout) Si to hypoeutectic irons containing approximately 8.5 pct Cr and 6.0 pct Ni. The
eutectic carbides formed were identified by electron microprobe analysis, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron (SEM) and
optical microscopies. In addition, differential thermal analysis (DTA) was used to study the process of solidification. At
Si contents of 0.3 and 1.2 pct, the eutectic carbides exhibited a duplex structure, consisting of cores of M7C3 surrounded by shells of M3C. Additionally, the microstructure contained ledeburite (M3C + γFe (austenite)). At the higher Si content of 1.6 pct, the eutectic carbides consisted entirely of M7C3, and some ledeburite remained. Last, when the Si content was raised to 2.3 pct, the eutectic carbides again consisted entirely
of M7C3, but ledeburite was no longer formed. These observations can be explained in terms of the effects of Si and, to a lesser
extent, of Ni on the shape of the liquidus surface of the metastable Fe-Cr-C phase diagram. The addition of Si reduces the
roles played by the four-phase class IIp reactionL + M7C3 → M3C + γFe and the ledeburitic eutectic reactionL → M3C + γFe in the overall process of solidification.

The eutectoid transformation of austenite in cast iron is known to proceed by both the meta-stable γ → α + Fe3C reaction common in Fe-C alloys of near eutectoid composition, and by the direct γ → α + Graphite reaction, with the graphite
phase functioning as a car-bon sink. In addition, the meta-stable cementite constituent of the pearlite can dissolve near
the graphite phase (Fe3C → α + Graphite), producing free ferrite. Isothermal trans-formation studies on a typical ductile iron (nodular cast iron)
confirmed that all of these reaction mechanisms are normally operative. The addition of 1.3 pct Mn was found to substantially
retard all stages of the transformation by retarding the onset of the eutectoid transformation, decreasing the diffusivity
of carbon in ferrite, and stabilizing the cemen-tite. Minor additions of Sb (0.08 pct) or Sn (0.12 pct) were found to inhibit
the γ →α + Graphite reaction path, as well as the Fe3C → α + Graphite dissolution step, but did not significantly affect the meta-stable γ → α + Fe3C reaction. Scanning Auger microprobe analysis indicated that Sn and Sb adsorb at the nodule/metal interphase boundaries during
solidification. This adsorbed layer acts as a barrier to the carbon flow necessary for the direct γ → α + Graphite and Fe3C → α + Graphite reactions. With the graphite phase dis-abled as a sink for the excess carbon, the metal transforms like a
nongraphitic steel. The effects of Mn, Sn, and Sb on the eutectoid transformation of ductile iron were shown to be consistent
with their behavior in malleable iron. 相似文献

The transformation of carbides with austenization time of a high speed steel (HSS) roll material, manufactured by a centrifugal
casting method, has been studied. The correlation between wear resistance and the type, morphology, volume fraction, and distribution
of the carbides has also been investigated. Microstructural observations, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, hardness measurements,
and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) have been used to characterize the carbides. The type and volume fraction of carbides
were found to change with austenizing time. During austenization, the transformation of the M3C carbides can be postulated as M3C + γ-Fe → M2C, with much finer nodular and rodlike MC carbides also forming through a solid-state transformation. The M2C carbide decomposes as M2C + γ-Fe → MC + M7C3 + M6C. The decomposed carbide substantially maintains a platelike shape until the end of decomposition. The most important finding
of this study is that austenization results in changes in the type, morphology, volume fraction, and distribution of carbides
and that it can be controlled to produced a homogeneous distribution of hard carbides, resulting in an improvement in the
wear resistance of HSS rolls. This finding may be of great use for the industrial production of HSS rolls. 相似文献

The phases in the δ-Al2O3 fibers were investigated using the methods of transmission electron microscopy (TEM): convergent beam electron diffraction
(CBED) and high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM). A phaseγ′-Al2O3 discovered previously by Vewerly in oxide layers with an fcc structure was found and new atomic positions are proposed. A

γ′ The correlation of the observed A12O3 lattices to the spinel lattice is discussed and translation of atom positions during theγ′ →γ →δ transformation is studied. All anions must change their positions by a small amount; one-third of the cation positions inγ′ and more than 90 pct of cation positions inδ experience a large translation during that transformation. This implies that for theγ′ it→γ} →δ transformation, the positions of cations in both lattices are important. The results are discussed in relation to the fiber-matrix
interaction under spinel formation during thermal loading ofδ-Al2O3-fiber-reinforced aluminum piston alloys. 相似文献

γ, of the matrix (γ) and dispersed γ′-type (Ni3X) phases in polycrystalline binary Ni-Al, Ni-Ga, Ni-Ge, and Ni-Si alloys as functions of temperature, up to about 680 °C.
Concentrated alloys containing large volume fractions of theγ′ phase (∼0.40 to 0.50) were aged at 700 °C to produce large, elastically unconstrained precipitates. The room-temperature
misfits are 0.00474 (Ni-Al), 0.01005 (Ni-Ga), 0.00626 (Ni-Ge), and -0.00226 (Ni-Si), with an estimated error of ± 4 pct. The
absolute values of the lattice constants of theγ andγ′ phases, at compositions corresponding to thermodynamic equilibrium at about 700 °C, are in excellent agreement with data
from the literature, with the exception of Ni3Ga, the lattice constant of which is much larger than expected. In Ni-Ge alloys, δ decreases to 0.00612 at 679 °C, and in
Ni-Ga alloys, the decrease is to 0.0097. In Ni-Si and Ni-Al alloys, δ exhibits a stronger temperature dependence, changing
to-0.00285 at 683 °C (Ni-Si) and to 0.00424 at 680 °C (Ni-Al). Since the times required to complete the high-temperature X-ray
diffraction (XRD) scans were relatively short (2.5 hours at most), we believe that the changes in δ observed are attributable
to differences between the thermal expansion coefficients of theγ andγ′ phases, because the compositions of the phases in question reflect the equilibrium compositions at 700 δC. Empirical equations
are presented that accurately describe the temperature dependences ofa
γ,a
γ′, and δ over the range of temperatures of this investigation. 相似文献

The effects of carbon content and ausaging on austenite γ ↔ martensite (α′) transformation behavior and reverse-transformed
structure were investigated in Fe-32Ni-12Co-4Al and Fe-(26,28)Ni-12Co-4Al-0.4C (wt pct) alloys. TheM
s
temperature, the hardness of γ phase, and the tetragonality of α′ increase with increasing ausaging time, and these values
are higher in the carbon-bearing alloys in most cases. The γ → α′ transformation behavior is similar to that of thermoelastic
martensite; that is, the width of α′ plate increases with decreasing temperature in all alloys. The αt’ → γ reverse transformation
temperature is lower in the carbon-bearing alloys, which means that the shape memory effect is improved by the addition of
carbon. The maximum shape recovery of 84 pct is obtained in Fe-28Ni-12Co-4Al-0.4C alloy when the ausaged specimen is deformed
at theM
s
temperature and heated to 1120 K. There are two types of reverse-transformed austenites in the carbon-bearing alloy. One
type is the reversed y containing many dislocations which were formed when the γ/α′ interface moved reversibly. The plane
on which dislocations lie is (01 l)γ if the twin plane is (112)α′. The other type of reverse-transformed austenite exhibits γ islands nucleated within the α′ plates. 相似文献

A regular solution model for the difference of the chemical free energy between γ and ε phases during γ→ε martensitic transformation in the Fe-Mn binary system has been reexamined and partly modified based on many articles concerning
the M
s
and A
s
temperatures of Fe-Mn alloys. Using the regular solution model, the measured M
s
temperatures, and a thermodynamic model for the stacking fault energy (SFE) of austenite (γ), the driving force for γ→ε martensitic transformation, and the SFE of γ have been calculated. The driving force for γ→ε martensitic transformation increases linearly from − 68 to − 120 J/mole with increasing Mn content from 16 to 24 wt pct.
The SFE of γ decreases to approximately 13 at. pct Mn and then increases with increasing Mn content, which is in better agreement with
Schumann’s result rather than Volosevich et al.’s result. 相似文献

Phase transformation and microstructural evolution have been studied in Ti-44Al-4Nb-4Zr-0.2Si-0.1B alloys that were cooled
from theα +β phase region with various cooling rates. It has been shown that the cooling rates have different influence on the morphology
of the transformation products for the three phase transformations studied,α →α
2, B2 →ω, andα →γ. Under slow cooling, all three transformations can be fulfilled. Under rapid cooling, B2 →ω is partially detained and a diffuseω phase forms as metastable phase, butα →γ is almost completely suppressed, which supports that theγ lamellae formation is diffusion controlled. 相似文献

Three industrial gas turbine blades made of conventionally cast (CC) IN-738 and GTD-111 and directionally solidified GTD-111
Ni-base superalloys were examined after long-term exposures in service environments. All three blades exhibit similar, service-induced
microstructural changes (MCs) including γ′ coarsening and coalescence, excessive secondary M23C6 precipitation, and primary MC degeneration, regardless of the chemical composition and the grain size. Special attention
was paid to the primary MC decomposition. It is shown that the primary MC decomposition occurs by carbon diffusion out of
the carbide into the γ + γ′ matrix, resulting in the formation of Cr-rich M23C6 carbides near the initial carbide/matrix interface. A transition zone is shown to develop between the original MC core and
its perimeter, demonstrating the gradual outward diffusion of carbon and a slight inward increase in nickel concentration.
The hexagonal Ni3(TiTa) η-phase was also found in the MC transition zone and on the MC-γ/γ′ interface. The primary MC decomposition can be expressed by the reaction MC + γ/γ′ → M23C6 + η. Finally, it is shown that the grain-boundary (GB) MC decomposes more rapidly than that in the grain interiors. This is consistent
with the more rapid GB diffusion that leads to the acceleration of the MC diffusional decomposition processes. 相似文献

Microstructural dependence of Fe-high Mn tensile behavior 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The tensile properties of Fe-high Mn (16 to 36 wt pct Mn) binary alloys were examined in detail at temperatures from 77 to
553 K. The Mn content dependence of the deformation and fracture behavior in this alloy system has been clarified by placing
special emphasis on the starting microstructure and its change during deformation. In general, the intrusion of hcp epsilon
martensite (ε) into austenite (γ) significantly increases the work hardening rate in these alloys by creating strong barriers
to further plastic flow. Due to the resulting high work hardening rates, large amounts of e lead to high flow stresses and
low ductility. Alloys of 16 to 20 wt pct Mn are of particular interest. While these alloys are thermally stable with respect
to bcc α’ martensite formation, 16 to 20 wt pct Mn alloys undergo a deformation induced ε →α’ transformation. The martensitic transformation plays two contrasting roles. The stress-induced ε→ α’ transformation decreases the initial work hardening rate by reducing locally high internal stress. However, the work hardening
rate increases as the accumulated α’ laths become obstacles against succeeding plastic flow. These rather complicated microstructural
effects result in a stress-strain curve of anomolous shape. Since both the Ms and Md temperatures for both the ε and α’-martensite transformations are strongly dependent on the Mn content, characteristic relationships
between the tensile behavior and the Mn content of each alloy are observed. 相似文献

The microstructure of the solutionized and aged nickel-base superalloy B-1900 + Hf was examined after additional aging at
982 °C for 72, 250, and 1000 hours. Alloy compositions that were examined contained the normal 1.34 at. pct (4.3 wt pct).
Ta as well as 0.67 at. pct and zero Ta levels. The γ phase agglomerated, became plate-like in morphology, and decreased in
volume fraction for all three alloys throughout the aging treatments. Changes which occurred in the γ and γ' phase compositions
were nearly complete after 72 hours of aging while changes in the MC carbide composition continued throughout the aging. Blocky
M6C carbides precipitated along the grain boundaries of all three alloys in the first 72 hours of aging. In addition, an acicular
form of this Mo/Cr/Ni-rich carbide developed in the intragranular regions of the Ta-containing alloys.

The annealing of large cast pieces in duplex stainless steel (SS) and the different heat cycles resulting from repairs involve
significant structural changes characterized by carbide and intermetallic phase precipitation. This yields to lower local
corrosion resistance in sea water due to changes in the local content of alloying elements. The precipitation of chromium
carbide affects the resistance to the intergranular corrosion and the repassivation behavior. The eutectoidal decomposition
of ferritic phase into regenerated austenite and in sigma phase (α → γ
r
+ σ) results in weakening the resistance to pit nucleation in synthetic sea water. In contrast, such precipitation will not have
any significant effect when the treatment temperature is high enough to involve a rapid rehomogenization of depleted zones
and ensure a self-healing. 相似文献

Interstitial additions and precipitation hardening in fully lamellar gamma TiAl have been investigated in recent years, with
a prime objective of improving the high-temperature creep resistance. As a result of this alloy development effort, the alloy
system K5 (Ti46Al-2Cr-3Nb-0.2W) was found to show remarkably improved creep resistance when reinforced with C or C+Si additions
and then aged appropriately. Precipitation strengthening is the proposed mechanism accounting for the observed creep strengthening
of K5SC alloys, with emphasis being paid on the effect of B2 particles, ζ-type silicides, and H-type carbide precipitates delineating γ/γ interfaces. In this study, the creep-deformed microstructures of fully lamellar K5 (S-C)-type alloys in aged and unaged conditions
were characterized using detailed electron microscopy, involving high-resolution imaging techniques and in-situ heating studies. Overall, the presence of these particles and their relative distribution result in strengthening of the
lamellar structure. The particular effect of each type of precipitate (silicides vs carbides) on creep has been assessed. New information about the nature of the light-element precipitation processes has been
obtained by studying the nucleation and growth of the carbide and silicide precipitates at the expense of dissolving α
2 laths during aging.

The stacking-fault energy (γ
sf
) of iron-based shape-memory alloys was calculated by the extended dislocation-node method. The results show that Ni and Mn
increase the γ
sf
of the alloys with an austenite structure, while Cr and Si decrease it. An expression relating the alloying elements of Ni,
Cr, Mn, and Si to the γ
sf
of the alloys is established. Moreover, in terms of the γ
sf
values of the alloys and the Schaeffler diagram, the alloy design of iron-based shape-memory alloys is carried out. It is
found that the alloy having the lowest γ
sf
has the best shape-memory effect (SME), with a martensite transition temperature (M
s
) being a little lower than ambient temperature. The corresponding composition of the alloy is located in the γ-phase zone near the phase line between the γ and γ+ε phase zone and the triple point of α+γ+ε in the Schaeffler diagram. 相似文献
