Microstructure properties of tempered D6ac steel

摘要

The aim of this study was to determine the microstructure and surface mechanical properties of tempered D6ac. The obtained microstructures exhibited a number of misfit dislocations from work hardening, with the degree of disorder dislocation decreasing gradually upon increasing the temperature at 650 ℃. XRD spectra observed that the residual austenite and/or mixed structures of ferrite with the precipitation of carbides at 650℃ will result in a softer state than that of the room temperature specimen. In addition, the forming process has a high microhardness of martensite phase at surface layer, subjected to heat treatment until a stable state is achieved. The content of ferrite atoms decreased and that of carbon and chromium elements increased upon increasing the tempering temperature.
