Effect of Heating Temperature on Decomposition Transition Behavior of M2C Carbide in High-vanadium High-speed Steel
Based on the need of high wear resistance, a new kind of high-vanadium high-speed steel named W3Mo4Cr5V6 was designed. The transformation behavior of metastable M

C carbides in the high temperature heating process of the steel was analyzed by means of SEM and EMPA. The results show that the cophortic M

C phase. With the increase of temperature from 950 ℃ to 1 150 ℃, the high temperature transformation of M

C, and the lamellar or fibrous morphology distributed in the austenite grain boundary with discontinuous network is transformed into the granular morphology distributed at the grain boundary, which can effectively reduce the harm of network carbides to the grain boundary. The research can provide an effective reference for the composition and morphology control of carbides distributed at the grain boundaries of high-speed steel and the optimal selection of parameters such as temperature and time of hot processing and heat treatment process.
