STRUCTURAL TRANSFORMATION DURING COLD DEFORMED CARBON STEEL TEMPERING

Abstract

The influence of parameters of degree of plastic deformation for 30…80 % and subsequent temper on the structure and yielding stress in the microyield region of preimproved carbon steels has been studied. The classification of dispersed phase of ferrite into two types containing the high angle boundaries and substructure boundaries respectively in relation to steels has been discussed.
