Abstract
The methods of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and electron diffraction are used to study the carbides precipitated in Hadfield steel Mn13 during 2-h aging at 475°C. It is shown that carbides of types (Fe, Mn, Cr)23C6 and mixed (Fe, Mn, Cr)7C3 + (Fe, Mn, Cr)3C precipitate simultaneously over austenite grain boundaries. The data on precipitation of M23C- and M7C3-type carbides in a Hadfield steel after water quenching and aging are pioneer ones. Strict orientation relations of the M23C6 carbides and of the austenite matrix are determined.
