Role of Chromium in the Formation of Phases in Mechanically Synthesized Alloys of Cementite Composition Alloyed with Chromium and Nickel

Аннотация

Phase transformations and aspects of alloying the phases of alloys of cementite composition, alloyed with chromium and nickel in the state immediately after mechanical synthesis and subsequent annealing, are studied. It is shown that cementite after mechanical synthesis is basically alloyed with chromium, while the amorphous phase is alloyed with chromium and nickel. Cementite produced upon the crystallization of the amorphous phase at T_ann = 300°C is enriched with nickel. At medium temperatures of annealing, the cementite regions with the highest nickel content decompose to form para- or ferromagnetic austenite.
