磁性法分析束状贝氏体基体渗碳钢

钢件渗层中存在的大量残留奥氏体影响着渗层硬度,而深冷处理可以减少钢中的残留奥氏体含量,针对这一问题,采用振动样品磁强计(VSM)磁性分析与直读光谱分析等相结合的方法对比分析了试验钢渗碳空冷后453K×1h低温回火(T)以及113K×30min深冷处理,并453K×1h低温回火(CT)下的组织结构状态,探究了1 203K×9h渗碳空冷的贝氏体钢的深冷处理效果。结果表明,二者的有效硬化层深度均约为1.35mm;在有效硬化层中,残留奥氏体质量分数分别约为29.8%(T)和12.6%(CT),最高硬度分别达到679HV(T)和821HV(CT);基体组织为束状贝氏体,其中残留奥氏体质量分数分别约为7.4%(T)和6.9%(CT),基体硬度均为430 HV左右。经过深冷处理,有效降低了渗层的残留奥氏体含量,使有效硬化层的最高硬度提高20%以上,可在重型钎具方面推广使用,降低材料成本,经济效益显著。

Analysis of carburizing steel with lath bainite in matrix by magnetic method

The cryogenic treatment is used to reduce the large amount of retained austenite in the steel infiltration layer which affects the hardness. The vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and direct reading spectroscopy are combined to compare and analyze the organization structure status of the test carburizing steel after air-cooling and low temperature tempering (T) at 453 K × 1 h, or after cryogenic treatment at 113 K × 30 min and low temperature tempering (T) at 453 K × 1 h. The cryopreservation effect of the 1 203 K × 9 h carburizing air-cooled bainitic steel is carried out. The results show that both the effective hardening layer depths are about 1.35 mm. The retained austenite mass fractions of T and CT in the effective hardened layer are approximately 29.8% and 12.6%, respectively, and the highest hardnesses of the effective hardened layer of T and CT are 679 HV and 821 HV, respectively. The matrix structure is lath bainite, and the retained austenite mass fractions in the matrix are approximately 7.4% for T and 6.9% for CT, respectively, and both the hardnesses of the matrixes are approximately 430 HV. After the cryogenic treatment, the austenite content in the infiltration layer is effectively reduced, so that the maximum hardness of the hardened layer increases by 20% or more. It can be widely used because of the decreased material cost and remarkable economical benefit.
