Abstract

The microstructure of pearlitic 12Kh1MF steel having spent its service life is studied with a Neophot-32 optical microscope. A cementite grain is identified and its elemental composition is determined using a multipurpose EVO-50 scanning electron microscope equipped with an EDS/WDS X-ray spectrometer. A newly formed grain of alloyed cementite is detected at a triple junction. The diffusion processes that occur in loaded steel are refined.
