Precipitation behaviors of Fe-18Cr-18Mn-0.63N and Fe-18Cr-18Mn-2Mo-0.69N high-nitrogen austenitic stainless steels during isothermally aging at 850℃ have been investigated by optical microscopy （OM）, scan- ning ele...Precipitation behaviors of Fe-18Cr-18Mn-0.63N and Fe-18Cr-18Mn-2Mo-0.69N high-nitrogen austenitic stainless steels during isothermally aging at 850℃ have been investigated by optical microscopy （OM）, scan- ning electron microscopy （SEM）, transmission electron microscopy （TEM） and X-ray diffraction （XRD）. The experimental results show that precipitation displays a discontinuous cellular way and the precipitates are identified as Cr2N in Fe-18Cr-18Mn-0.63N steel. The addition of Mo makes precipitation occur not only at the grain boundary but also inside the grain and precipitation also displays discontinuous cellular way. The precipitates at the grain boundary and in the cell are both identified as Cr2N phase and X phase and the precipitates inside the grain are identified as X phase in Fe-18Cr-18Mn-2Mo-0.69N steel. The nucleations of X phase and Cr2N phase at the grain boundary are both governed by the diffusion of Cr atoms. The formation and growth of X phase inside the grain are induced by the impoverishment of N atoms with increasing aging time.展开更多

The aging treatments have led to the decomposition of nitrogen supersaturated austenitic matrix through discontinuous cellular precipitation. The precipitated cells comprise alternate lamellae of M2N precipitate and austenitic matrix. This kind of precipitate morphology is similar to that of pearlite. However, owing to the non-eutectoidic mechanism of the reaction, the growth characteristic of the cellular precipitates is different from that of pearlite in Fe-C binary alloys. M2N precipitate in the cell possesses a hexagonal crystal structure with the parameters a = 0.4752nm and c = 0.4429nm, and the orientation relationship between the M2V precipitates and austenite determined from the SADP is [01^-10]M2N//[101]γ, [2^-1^-10]M2N//[010]γ.展开更多
