Conclusions
-
1.
The modulus of elasticity E at 20–625°C is highest for high-speed tungsten-molybdenum steel R8M3K6S and R6M5 with HRC 63-67.
-
2.
The lower homogeneity of the structure induced by uneven distribution of carbides in high-speed steel or the formation of excess ferrite in die steels lowers the modulus of elasticity.
-
3.
In all steels investigated the modulus of elasticity decreases almost linearly with increasing temperature.
