Education is a wonderful thing. If you couldn't sign your name you'd have to pay cash -Rita Mae Brown (1944--), U.S. novelist
The Fe-C system Hypoeutectoid steels - strength vs P content
Martensite (MAR) Quenching suppresses diffusion AUS ––> P rxn doesn't go! But something has to happen - a. too much carbon for FE b. AUS needs to change structure AUS ––> MAR (very fine structure)
Martensite (MAR) MAR is metastable…… C is trapped in wrong structure MAR comes from AUS AUS wants to exsolve C & change atom arrangement
Martensite (MAR) martensite start martensite finish Transformation to MAR is time independent ….but temperature dependent
Martensite (MAR) TTT curves & MAR formation
Martensite (MAR) Very hard, very strong due to: solution hardening by xs carbon residual internal strain But……
Martensite (MAR) Toughness = ??
Hardenability Definitions - For steels: harden = make MAR hardenability = ability to make MAR
