Abstract

In situ observation of the bainite carbide precipitation processes in 40CrMnSiMoV steel by means of high-temperature transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is conducted. It is evident that carbides can precipitate either in bainitic ferrite or from austenite when carbide-free bainite (meta-bainite) obtained by isothermal transformation is tempered at higher temperatures. In view of the quantity of carbides precipitated from ferrite in combination with the result of an X-ray diffraction analysis of the bainitic ferrite carbon content, it can be concluded that bainitic ferrite growth involves supersaturation of carbon content to some degree.
