eng Abstract:
Phase composition of the steel P91 during annealing was studied with the aim to reveal the evolution of new phases. In this paper, the precipitation was characterized using energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and electron diffraction in transmission microscopy (TEM). Only Nb-rich particles were found in the studied samples austenitized at 1423 °C for 20h and water cooled. After tempering at 673 °C for 2 h, the formation mainly M3C type carbides and after tempering at 873 °C for 2 h, the formation of M7C3 and M23C6 was observed. These structure changes play an important role for stability and also carbon diffusion.
