The principal objective of this investigation was to examine the role of adding elements such as molybdenum, niobium, tungsten and boron in the high manganese heat resistant steel in which nickel was completely replaced by manganese. The influence of alloying elements on the aging hardenability, elevated temperature tensile strength, oxidation resistance and creep rupture was investigated. It was found that the alloy whose composition is 16% Mn, 20% Cr, 0.2% C, 0.6% N, 3% Mo, 1% Nb, 1% W, 0.01% B exhibits good high temperature mechanical properties. |
