One Minute Mentor: Transformation behavior of Austenite
The transformation behavior of retained austenite in M2 steel was examined under varying tempering conditions. The steel was initially subjected to interrupted quenching at 105 °C (225 °F), a process that elevated the retained austenite content to approximately 55 vol %, compared to the typical 25 vol % observed after direct quenching to room temperature. This was followed by […]
