Effect of Al content on the g transformation and M23C6 precipitation behavior in 18Cr-xAl-Si ferritic heat-resistant stainless steel during solidification process
JOURNAL OF MATERIALS RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGY-JMR&T(2022)
Abstract
Aimed at clarifying delta -> gamma transformation and M23C6 precipitation behavior in18Cr-xAl-Si (x = 0, 0.43wt.%, 0.91wt.% and 1.82wt.%) ferritic heat-resistant stainless steel (FHSS), high temperature confocal scanning laser microscopy (CSLM) was used for in-situ observation during solidification. The results demonstrated that increasing of Al content reduced the nucleation temperature of delta-ferrite, and at the same time reduced the free energy difference between delta-ferrite and gamma-austenite, which increased the difficulty of delta -> gamma transformation, in turn reduced the temperature of delta ->gamma transformation. The gamma-austenite preferentially precipitated at the delta-ferrite phase boundaries and gradually along the sides of the delta-ferrite phase boundaries as the temperature decreased, and part of the martensite transformed inside the gamma-austenite phases. M23C6 carbides mainly precipitated at the phase boundaries between delta-ferrite and gamma-austenite/martensite. With the increase of Al content, the amount of gamma-austenite/martensite and M23C6 carbides decreased. In addition, the solidification mechanism of the complex nucleus was also discussed.
