Grain growth kinetics of austenite in a hypoeutectoid steel(containing carbon of 0.35%)at 920 ℃ and in a hypereutectoid steel(containing carbon of 1%)at 980 ℃ for holding time ranging from 1 h to 6 h was investi...Grain growth kinetics of austenite in a hypoeutectoid steel(containing carbon of 0.35%)at 920 ℃ and in a hypereutectoid steel(containing carbon of 1%)at 980 ℃ for holding time ranging from 1 h to 6 h was investigated.The hypoeutectoid steel exhibited normal grain growth without solute drag hindrance with a time exponent(0.51)close to the theoretical value(0.5).However,the grain growth of austenite in the hypereutectoid steel held up to 3 h was extremely slow,characterizing by a low value of time exponent(0.08).Thereafter,a breakaway occurred and the grain growth in the hypereutectoid steel held from 3 h to 6 h progressed normally with a time exponent(0.52)close to the theoretical value(0.5).展开更多

A novel technique of three dimensional atom probe was used to investigate solute distributions in these steels. The results indicate that C concentration decreases, whereas V increases during overaging in both bake hardening steels. The conclusion that no vanadium carbides pre- cipitate during the overaging is therefore originally obtained by microanalysis in bake hardening steels. Moreover, bake hardening values of all the specimens were tested by tensile experiments with 2 0/~ pre-deformation. However, those of overaged specimens were further measured with higher levels of pre-deformation because no bake hardening phenomenon was present at 2% pre-deformation. As the pre-deformation increases from 2% to 6% and 8%, both overaged steels show bake hardening values, and the value data are almost the same.展开更多
