Effect of Heat Treatment on Impact Strength of Powder Steels with 0 – 2%Nickel

  • Published:
Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

The microstructure and impact strength of powder steels containing 0 – 2 wt.% Ni and 0.3 wt.% graphite is studied after quenching from the intercritical region (from 730 to 760°C) and tempering.
