Abstract

Structural mechanism of intermetallic aging of the N26Kh5T3 steel at 600 and 700°C with the precipitation of particles of an ordered γ′ phase Ni3Ti of different sizes has been clarified. Neutron diffraction analysis was used to determine variations in the crystal structure, phase composition, and microdistortions in the samples depending on the aging conditions.
