Effect of particle size on the amount of residual austenite in atomized high-speed steel powders

  • Published:
Soviet Powder Metallurgy and Metal Ceramics Aims and scope

Conclusions

The presence of δ-phase and decomposition of martensite in fine particles as a result of heating by large particles alter the relative intensities of the austenite and martensite lines. Because of this, determination of the amount of residual austenite in a fine fraction by the existing x-ray methods gives low results. A more accurate estimate of the amounts of residual austenite in fine and coarse particles is obtained by measuring the areas of corresponding austenite lines.
