Conclusions
-
1.
Treatments II and III increase the heat resistance up to the softening temperature (700°C for the KhN77MVTYuB alloy and 750°C for the KhN70MVTYuB alloy).
-
2.
Treatment III is preferable to treatment II. Treatment II increases the deformability, decreases the sensitivity to notches, and the intragranular tendency to crack persists up to higher temperatures.
-
3.
Treatment II is easy to apply to machine parts and is carried out by ordinary technological processes, and is therefore more economical and more advantageous for commercial applications.
-
4.
For alloys which are subjected to higher temperatures (700–800°C) in operation it is not logical to carry out intermediate deformation in the hardening process.
