HREM Study on Heterogeneous Formation of Titanium Carbonitride in Ti Microalloyed Steel

Article Preview

Abstract:

HREM study on Ti-carbonitride particles in Ti-microalloyed steels has been carried out. It shows that many tiny Ti-carbonitride precipitates formed on nitride, sulfide or oxide particles. These carbonitrides possess twin relationship or have continuous interface with the particles existed already. The results imply that the twinning and epitaxial growth may be the important mechanisms for Ti-carbonitride formation in the steels. These nucleation mechanisms can highly lower the interfacial energy of new precipitates, resulting in the nucleation rate greatly increased. Therefore, the mechanical properties of the Ti-microalloyed steels are effectively improved.
