Abstract |
Carbon diffusion of ultra low carbon steel treated at 880℃ and 930℃ for 10, 30, 60 and 120 minutes was investigated using optical microscopy, SAM, EPMA, and Micro Vickers. The martensite patterns of the specimens treated at 880℃ and 930℃ were different. Martensite in the ferrite region was found in the specimen treated at 880℃ because of grain boundary diffusion. Such phenomena is explained by a carbon diffusion model. |
