Influence of Deformation and Quenching Temperature on Structures and Properties of High Nitrogen Stainless Bearing Steel

Article Preview

Abstract:

The influence of deformation and quenching temperature on microstructure and properties for high nitrogen stainless bearing steel was studied using the calculation of Thermo-Calc software and relevant Fe-based database and some experiments. The results showed that there was a small precipitation amount of carbide in the sample after a large deformation. The value of impact toughness (AKU) was increased from 2.0 J to 12.0 J with the deformation increasing from 71% to 83%. When the quenching temperature reached 1050, the value of the hardness was up to the tiptop. Additionally, according to the calculation, it was found that there was a linear functional relation between the precipitation of carbide M23C6 (M) and quenching temperature (T). And the relational model could be expressed as: MM23C6=55.34 - 0.05T (T1000).
