The Effect of Heat-Treatment Modes on Microstructure of Reduced-Activation Ferritic-Martensitic Steel EK-181

  • Published:
Russian Physics Journal Aims and scope

The effect of heat-treatment (HT) modes on the structural-phase state of heat-resistant ferritic-martensitic steel EK-191 is investigated. The use of intermediate (between quenching and tempering) annealing at reduced temperatures is shown to result in a higher dispersion of nanoparticles of vanadium carbonitride than that achieved by traditional heat treatment. The HT modes ensuring high density of nanoparticles and a simultaneous reduction of the martensite tempering intensity are found out.
