To control austenite transformation of ductile iron, thermodynamics procedures were used to calculate the Ae3, the Gr/γ (Acm), and the A1 phase boundaries of high Mn and Ni-Cu-Mn alloyed iron as a function of austenitization temperature. The results of calculation show that segregation of Mn in the intergraphite regions reduces the carbon content of austenite at the Ae3 phase boundary to the lowest value. If one ignores the effect of substitutional alloying elements on the nucleation of austenite, the austenite should first nucleate in the cell boundaries and then grow to the graphite nodules. In addition, the calculated results show that the A1 temperature is the lowest in the intercellular region of a high Mn alloy. Therefore, if the austenitization temperature is not sufficiently high, only those parts of the matrix that have the A1 phase boundary below the austenitization temperature transform to austenite, and dual formation of the α and γ phases will occur. By using the procedure introduced in this study, the volume fraction of each phase can be evaluated by calculating the A1 phase boundary as a function of intergraphite distance. In the case of Ni-Cu-Mn alloy, Ni stabilizes austenite, which lowers the Ae3 phase boundary. In this alloy, carbon content of austenite at the Ae3 phase boundary is lower near the graphite nodule and higher in the intergraphite regions. However, the variation of carbon content of austenite at the Ae3 phase boundary in the matrix of this alloy is much lower than in the high Mn alloy. 相似文献

A ductile iron containing 0.6% copper as the main alloying element was austempered at a fixed austempering temperature of
330 °C for a fixed austempering time of 60 min after austenitization at 850 °C for different austenitization periods of 60,
90, and 120 min. The austempering process was repeated after changing austenitization temperature to 900 °C. The effect of
austenitization temperature and time was studied on the carbon content and its distribution in the austenite after austenitization.
The effect of austenitization parameters was also studied on austempered microstructure, structural parameters like volume
fraction of austenite, X

after austempering. The average carbon content of austenite increases linearly with austenitization time and reaches a saturation
level. Higher austenitization temperature results in higher carbon content of austenite. As regards the austempered structure,
the lowering austenitization temperature causes significant refinement and more uniform distribution of austempered structure,
and a decrease in the volume fraction of retained austenite. 相似文献

The austenite to ferrite transformation start temperature was measured in two low-C, Si-Al grain non-oriented electrical steels
using in situ x-ray diffraction and the direct comparison method with the (111)γ and (110)α diffracted intensities. It was shown that increasing Al content from 0.2 to 0.6 wt.% in a 0.06 wt.% C, 0.6 wt.% Si and 0.5 wt.%
Mn steel increases the Ae3 temperature from 928 to 955 °C. The results are supported by microstructural observations of isothermally transformed samples
and used to discuss the loss of ductility during high temperature deformation (e.g. hot rolling) of this type of materials. 相似文献

Structure of a metastable austenitic invar alloy Fe-32% Ni preliminarily quenched for martensite and subjected to α → γ transformation
using slow heating to various temperatures (430–500°C) with the formation of variously oriented nanocrystalline lamellar austenite,
which was subjected to an additional annealing at 280°C (below the calculated temperature of ordering of the γ phase), has
been studied electron-microscopically. An electron diffraction analysis revealed the presence of an L10 superstructure in the disperse nickel-enriched nanocrystalline γ phase both after annealing at 280°C and in the unannealed
alloy immediately after α → γ transformation upon slow heating to 430°C. 相似文献

The effect of austenitizing conditions on the microstructure and impact properties of an austempered ductile iron (ADI) containing
1.6% Cu and 1.6% Ni as the main alloying elements was investigated. Impact tests were carried out on samples of initially
ferritic matrix structure and which had been first austenitized at 850,900, 950, and 1000°C for 15 to 360 min and austempered
at 360°C for 180 min.
Results showed that the austenitizing temperature, Tγ, and time, tγ, have a significant effect on the impact properties of the alloy. This has been attributed to the influence of these variables
on the carbon kinetics.
The impact energy is generally high after short tγ, and it falls with further soaking. In samples austenitized at 850 and 900°C, these trends correspond to the gradual disappearance
of the pro-eutectoid ferrite and the attainment of fully developed ausferritic structures. In initially ferritic structures,
the carbon diffusion distances involved during austenitization are large compared to those in pearlitic structures. This explains
the relatively long soaking periods required to attain fully ausferritic structures, which in spite of the lower impact energy
values, have a better combination of mechanical properties.
Microstructures of samples austenitized at 950 and 1000°C contain no pro-eutectoid ferrite. The impact properties of the former
structures are independent of tγ, while those solution treated at 1000°C are generally low and show wide variation over the range of soaking time investigated.
For fully ausferritic structures, impact properties fall with an increase in Tγ. This is particularly evident at 1000°C. As the Tγ increases, the amount of carbon dissolved in the original austenite increases. This slows down the rate of austenite transformation
and results in coarser structures with lower mechanical properties. Optimum impact properties are obtained following austenitizing
between 900 and 950°C for 120 to 180 min. 相似文献

The phase equilibria among the α(A1), β(A2), and γ(D83) phases in the Cu-Al-X systems (X: Ti, V, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, Sn, and Sb) at 700 and 800 °C were investigated, and the effects
of these alloying elements on the phase boundaries, homogeneous solid solution ranges, and tie-lines among the α, β, and γ phases were accurately determined by the diffusion couple method. The phase stabilities among α, β, and γ phases are discussed in terms of the partition coefficient. In addition, a modified Guillet’s method, which is used to estimate
the effect of alloying elements on microstructure, is proposed by taking into account the change of equivalent coefficient
with the phase fraction, and applied to predict the effect of alloying elements on the microstructure of the Cu-Al base alloy. 相似文献

A mathematical model was developed in the current study to understand the progress of austenitization process in ductile irons.
The austenitization time required to produce homogeneous austenite in a two-phase region of austenite and graphite has been
estimated in terms of (a) time required for transformation of matrix to austenite and (b) time required for dissolution of
graphite in austenite to attain uniform carbon content, which remains in equilibrium with graphite. The time required been
related to the structural parameters of cast ductile iron-like radius of graphite nodule, radius of austenite cell, volume
fraction of graphite, volume fraction of ferrite in cast matrix, and diffusion constant. The model was used to determine the
minimum austenitization time required to achieve homogeneous austenite in three commercial ductile irons when austenitized
at a temperature of 900 °C. The results were compared with those obtained. The uniformity of the carbon content in austenite
of ductile iron was verified indirectly by measuring microhardness. 相似文献

The microstructural changes that occur during aging and cold rolling of a new Fe-Mn-Al-Cr-C duplex alloy have been investigated.
Two treatments were developed to produce either a good combination of tensile strength and ductility (σ

=525 MPa, and A=46%) or a high strength (σ
u
=1340 MPa, σ
y
=1200 MPa, and A=15%) with a ductile type of fracture after aging at 320 °C. Aging between 550 °C and 700 °C led to a significant decrease
in strength and ductility due to the precipitation of the brittle βMn phase. However, aging above 750 °C showed a considerable increase in strength and ductility due to the precipitation of
very fine grains of ferrite within the austenite phase. 相似文献

The variation in the austempered microstructure, the volume fraction of retained austenite, Xλ, the average carbon content of retained austenite, Cλ, their product XλCλ and the size of bainitic ferrite needles with austempering temperature for 0.6% Cu alloyed ductile iron have been investigated
for three austempering temperatures of 270, 330, and 380 °C for 60 min at each temperature after austenitization at 850 °C
for 120 min. The austempering temperature not only affects the morphology of bainitic ferrite but also that of retained austenite.
There is an increase in the amount of retained austenite, its carbon content, and size of bainitic ferrite needles with the
rise in austempering temperature. The influence of austempering time on the structure has been studied on the samples austempered
at 330 °C. The increase in the austempering time increases the amount of retained austenite and its carbon content, which
ultimately reaches a plateau. 相似文献

A ductile iron containing 0.6% copper as the main alloying element was austenitized at 850 °C for 120 min and was subsequently
austempered for 60 min at austempering temperatures of 270, 330, and 380 °C. The samples were also austempered at 330 °C for
austempering times of 30–150 min. The structural parameters for the austempered alloy austenite (X

tensile properties such as 0.2% proof stress, ultimate tensile strength (UTS), percentage of elongation, and quality index.
These properties have been correlated with the structural parameters of the austempered ductile iron microstructure. Fracture
studies have been carried out on the tensile fracture surfaces of the austempered ductile iron (ADI). 相似文献

The effect of electric current (EC) heating on deformation and phase transformation behavior is studied for plain low carbon
steel. It is shown that EC heating does not sensibly influence the deformation resistance of austenite. During deformation
at the upper temperatures of the α+γ range the EC-effect is positive (flow stress decreases upon application of EC) while
at the lower temperatures of the α+γ range the EC-effect is negative. This is accompanied by variations in the work hardening
rate of the same sign. The EC-effect in the α+γ range is more pronounced at lower strain rates when the contribution of the
EC heating to the overall temperature of the specimen is higher. EC heating combined with deformation leads to an increase
in the Ar3 temperature. The magnitude and the sign of EC-effects on deformation resistance and transformation behavior in the α+γ range
are related to the differences in electric resistivity and deformation resistance between the emerging and the parent phases.
A negative difference in electric resistivity and deformation resistance accelerates the phase transformation and leads to
a positive EC-effect, and vice versa. 相似文献

Alloy 903 and Alloy 909 are well-known Fe-Co-Ni-Al-Ti-Nb alloys with controlled low thermal expan-sion, but they have some
properties that can be improved. To improve stress-accelerated grain boundary oxidation embrittlement of Alloy 903 and instability
of theγ phase of alloy 909, two new alloys with good stress-rupture ductility, high creep-rupture strength, high tensile strength
at high temperature, and good controlled thermal expansion were developed. These property improvements were accomplished by
the combination of optimizing the Fe-Co-Ni ratio of the matrix and stabilizing theγ phase with the addition of aluminum. 相似文献

The low-temperature Fe-Ni phase diagram was assessed experimentally by investigating Fe-Ni regions of meteorites using high
resolution analytical electron microscopy techniques. The present phase diagram differs from the available experimental phase
diagram based on observations of meteorite structure, but it is consistent with the available theoretical diagram in that
α/Ni3Fe equilibrium was found at low temperatures. The a phase containing 3.6 wt.% Ni is in local equilibrium with the γ′ (Ni3Fe) phase containing 65.5 wt.% Ni, while the γ′' (FeNi) phase is present as a metastable phase. The new phase diagram incorporates
a monotectoid reaction (γ1 → α + γ2, where (γ1 is a paramagnetic fcc austenite, a is a bcc ferrite, and γ2 is a ferromagnetic fcc austenite) at about 400 °C, a eutectoid reaction (γ2 → α + γ′) at about 345 °C, and a miscibility gap associated with a spinodal region at low temperatures. The miscibility gap
is located between 9.0 and 51.5 wt. % Ni at ∼200 °C. The new low-temperature Fe-Ni phase diagram is consistent with all the
phases observed in the metallic regions of meteorites. 相似文献

In the present investigation, the effect of alloying elements on the austempering process, austempered microstructure, and
structural parameters of two austempered ductile irons (ADI) containing 0.6% Cu and 0.6% Cu/1.0% Ni as the main alloying elements
was investigated. The optical metallography and x-ray diffraction were used to study the changes in the austempered structure.
The effect of alloying additions on the austempering kinetics was studied using the Avrami equation. Significantly more upper
bainite was observed in the austempered Cu-Ni alloyed ADI than in Cu alloyed ADI. The volume fraction of retained austenite
(X
γ), the carbon level in the retained austenite (C
γ), and the product X
γ
C
γ in an austempered structure of Cu-alloyed ADI are higher than in Cu-Ni-alloyed ADI. The austempering Kinetics is slowed down

This study discusses the development of a phase transformation in 24Cr-14Ni-0.7Si stainless steel after aging under various
aging temperatures, times, and N2/Air ratios. The observation of OM indicated that the initial state of δ-ferrite in the test material appeared as complete
dendrite structures at short aging times and then exhibited lacy and dispersed structures when the aging time increased. This
led to a gradual austenitization transformation as the nitrogen/air ratio increased, accelerating the δ/σ phase transformation
and retarding the δ/γ phase transformation at the same time. The δ/σ phase transformation was dominant when the aging temperature
was 800 °C. A line scanning analysis of the EPMA showed that the X-ray spectrum of Cr at the δ/γ interphase boundary was raised.
In addition, Si showed lower X-ray spectrum energy after the δ/γ phase transformation. Clearly, Si had a stabilizing effect
on the δ-ferrite and σ-phase. Furthermore, it had the fastest precipitation ratio for the δ/σ phase transformation at 800°C
among all aging temperatures. 相似文献

Phase transformation from austenite to ferrite is an important process to control the microstructures of steels. To obtain finer ferrite grains for enhancing its mechanical property, various thermomechanical processes followed by static ferrite transformation have been carried out for austenite phase. This article reviews the dynamic transformation (DT), in which ferrite transforms during deformation of austenite, in a 6Ni-0.1C steel recently studied by the authors. Softening of flow stress was caused by DT, and it was interpreted through a true stress–true strain curve analysis. This analysis predicted the formation of ferrite grains even above the Ae3 temperature (ortho-equilibrium transformation temperature between austenite and ferrite), where austenite is stable thermodynamically, under some deformation conditions, and the occurrence of DT above Ae3 was experimentally confirmed. Moreover, the change in ferrite grain size in DT was determined by deformation condition, i.e., deformation temperature and strain rate at a certain strain, and ultrafine ferrite grains with a mean grain size of 1 μm were obtained through DT with subsequent dynamic recrystallization of ferrite. 相似文献

Aging austenitic alloys with a stable (N26Kh5T3; M
s < −196°C) and metastable (N25Kh2T3; M
s = −130°C) austenite have been investigated after employing different methods of heat and thermomechanical treatments, namely,
(1) aging at a temperature T
a = 600°C (A); (2) strengthening using phase-transformation-induced hardening (“phase naklep” (PN)) and subsequent aging at
T
a = 600°C (PN + A); (3) deformation to 30% (D) at T
d = 600°C after preliminary aging at the same temperature (A + D); and (4) PN + A + D. In this case, the alloy with stable
austenite has not been strengthened by phase naklep. Structure, fracture mode, ultimate strength, yield strength, relative
reduction of area, and relative elongation have been studied depending on the duration of aging τa upon these strengthening treatments. It has been established that the physicomechanical properties of the alloys depend not
only on τa, but also on the testing temperature. It is shown that all above physicomechanical characteristics of the alloys under consideration
are affected substantially by the austenite stability. 相似文献
