Crystallographic Features of Phase Transformations in Steel 100KhN3A

  • Published:
Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

The structure of the surface layer of steel 12KhN3A after carburizing is studied. The content of carbon in the surface layer is shown to correspond to steel 100KhN3A. The crystallographic features of decomposition of supercooled austenite in the layer are investigated. Orientation microscopy is performed with the use of a scanning electron microscope. The orientation relations arising in the martensitic and pearlitic transformations are considered. It is shown that the orientation relations in the γ → α′ transformation are intermediate between the orientation relations of Kurdyumov–Sachs, Nishiyama–Wasserman and {113}γ ∥ {112}α, ⟨110⟩γ ∥ ⟨111⟩α.
