Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Austempered High Boron Cast Iron with Modification and its Mechanism Discussion

Article Preview

Abstract:

A kind of austempered boron alloyed high silicon cast alloy was developed though modification with Ti and controlling austempering temperature, the impact toughness of which increases to 20.7 J/cm2, which is more than triple that of the previous work. The alloy with modification exhibits obvious grain refining both in matrix and boride, improved the morphology of boride into discontinuous network and small particles. The phenomenon and mechanism are discussed in the article, it proved TiC is possible to act as the nuclei of eutectic boride and Ti can be an effective modifier.
