Effect of Different Tempering Temperatures on Microstructure and Impact Property of 20CrMnTi Steel

Abstract:

The effect of different tempering temperatures on microstructure and impact property of 20CrMnTi steel has been studied on Zwick/roell Amsler PKP 450 pendulum machine, SU-8020 scanning electron microscope (SEM) and optical microscope. The results shows that the impact property of 20CrMnTi steel is dramatically improved after high-temperature tempering. However, the minimum value occurs when it was tempered at 350°C because of low-temperature tempering brittlement at this degree. The SEM fracture morphology was typical dimples after high temperature tempering, and the type of fracture was ductile fracture; the type of cleavage characteristic and quasi cleavage characteristic were generated on the fracture morphology at low-temperature and medium-temperature tempering respectively, and the type of fracture was brittle.
