Study of the kinetics of dissolution and preciptitation of complex carbides and their effect on martensitic transformation in corrosion-resistant steels

Conclusion Separation of martensitic transformation into several stages in martensitic corrosionresistant steels may be explained by a concentration gradient for carbon and carbide-forming elements in austenite as a result of precipitation of them during cooling.Spain.
