Influence of Multi-Step Austempering Temperature on Tensile Performance of Unalloyed Ductile Iron
Abstract:
Austempered ductile iron (ADI) has been widely used in various industries due to its excellent combination of high strength, ductility and good wear resistance. The tensile behavior of an unalloyed commercial ADI with a multiphase structure designed by a novel multi-step austempering treatment is investigated. The developed austempering process consists of austenitizing at 890°C for 20min, then initial rapid quenching to 180°C, and isothermal holding at 190, 220, 250°Cfor 120min, and finally air cooling to room temperature. The optimum mechanical properties with an ultimate tensile strength of 1350MPa, a yield strength of 1090MPa, as well as an elongation of 3.5% is achieved at 220°C. This is attributed to a synergistic strengthening effect of multiphase structure including a prior martensite with fine needle bainitic ferrite and film retained austenite.
