Theoretical analysis of changes in cementite composition during tempering of bainite

H. K. D. H. Bhadeshia

Abstract

An attempt has been made to model the kinetics of changes of composition in cementite during the aging of creep resistant low alloy steels of the type used in power plant. The method gives insight into safe ways of extrapolating short-term data and predicts a previously unknown carbide particle-size effect.
