Combined with TEM analysis, the calculated result confirms that the carbide in equilibrium state is M_7C_3 carbide. The dissolution of M_7C_3 carbide in steel is predicted by DICTRA program. It was shown that the temperature remarkably affects the dissolution process of M_7C_3 carbide, but the influence of alloy elements such as manganese and molybdenum can be neglected in this steel.展开更多
