Conclusions
-
1.
Heating of deformed steel 1Kh21N5T at 650° for 10 h before quenching and tempering increases the impact strength. After the standard heat treatment the toughness of the steel is low.
-
2.
Postdeformation heating at 650° leads to precipitation of dispersed particles in ferrite and their coalescence during prolonged heating. As the result, the largest particles are not completely dissolved during solutioning, and they serve as precipitation centers during subsequent tempering, which prevents precipitation in other sections. The relatively large size of the particles and the low density of particles (distribution) have a favorable effect on the impact strength of the steel.
