Structure and Mechanical Properties of High Si and Low C Steels

Abstract

Abstract: The investigation on lath martensitic transfor- mation has been carried out for 24SiMnNi2CrMoA steel using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction.The austenite and martensite in the alloy adopt the intermediate orientation relationship between Kurdjumov-Sachs and Nishiyama.The adjacent laths in a packet are small-angle related or twin-related.The retained austenites which accommodate shape deformation of martensites appear commonly between adjacent laths.High Si content increases the volume fraction of retained austenites and its stability.The excellent combination of high strength and toughness of this steel is attributed to its fine martensite laths mingled with more than 5% continuous retained austenite films.

Key words: martensitic transformation, high Si low C steel, toughness, orientation relationship
