| Abstract Scope |
Processing parameters, such as solidification times, rolling reductions, and heat treatments, are known to affect the microstructures and final properties of alloyed steel. Small differences in processing, such as starting microstructure, may have large implications for the final properties and microstructure, but are not always well understood and documented. Here, the effect of cooling rate during heat treatment of a highly hardenable, 10Ni quench-lamellarize-temper (QLT) steel is investigated through in-situ neutron diffraction. Insights into phase development and solute partitioning throughout the QLT heat treatment are provided, with an emphasis on the effect of cooling rate on microstructural development. |
