Abstract:
The microstructures and nano-scale precipitate phases of Custom 455 stainless steel quenched from 850 °C and over-aged at 480 °C for 256 h have been studied in a quantitative way by using transmission electron microscopy and atom probe tomography. The results show that plate reverted austenite is formed between the martensite laths. In the reverted austenite, a rod-shaped Ni3Ti phase particle of about 40 nm long is precipitated at the interphase interface between martensite and reverted austenite, with an adjacent Cu-rich precipitate with a size of ∼20 nm. In the martensite, spherical G-phase particles with a diameter of about 8.0 ± 1.6 nm are precipitated adjacent to the Cu-rich precipitates with a size of about 10.0 ± 2.0 nm. These Cu-rich precipitates in the martensite are much smaller than those in the reverted austenite, but have a ten times higher number density than that in the latter. The orientation relationships between the martensitic matrix, reverted austenite, Ni3Ti phase, G-phase and Cu-rich precipitates are: (01−1)M//(1−11)γ//(0004)η//(02−2)G//(111)Cu, [111] M //[011]γ//[2−1−10]η//[111]G//[11−2]Cu. © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
