Precipitation of Intermetallic Phases in Austenitic-Ferritic Duplex Steels
Myška, Martin ; Foret, Rudolf (referee) ; Čech, Jan (referee) ; Záděra, Antonín (advisor)
This PhD thesis addresses the issue of precipitation of intermetallic phases in cast duplex stainless steel according to the ASTM A890 Gr4A standard. The aim of the thesis was to determine the amount of precipitated intermetallic phases depending on the temperature and holding time during isothermal annealing and under anisothermal conditions during cooling of the material in the temperature range from 1000 to 600 °C. The partial aim of the work was to determine the relationship between the amount of precipitated intermetallic phases and the mechanical properties of cast steel ASTM A890 Gr4A. As part of the work, the description and prediction of the kinetics of precipitation of intermetallic phases using the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami equation were verified. The relationship between the amount of precipitated intermetallic phases and the failure character of the material was determined by fractographic evaluation. The critical cooling rate of the casting was determined to ensure the minimum toughness of the steel that is desirable to reduce the risk of cracking during cooling of duplex stainless steel castings.
