Evolution of equilibrium phases and non-equilibrium phases in 30Cr3Si2Mn2NiNb steel during austenitizing was simulated via Thermo-Calc thermodynamic software.Effect of C,Mo,Nb and V on undissolved phases in steel was studied.Experimental analysis was carried out by SEM and XRD on microstructure of as-quenched 30Cr3Si2Mn2NiNb steel.Results show that there are Mo-enriched M6C and Nb-enriched MC phases in steel after austenitizing below 950℃,and MC phases are dramatically reduced while M6C phases are almostly dissolved above 950℃.The proper austenitizing temperature of 30Cr3Si2Mn2NiNb steel is 950-1000℃.The results of calculation indicate that C,Nb retard dissolution of MC phase while V,Mo promot the dissolution.

YANG Wei-guang, ZHAO Jia-qi, NAN Hai, WU Guo-qing. Effects of HIP Treatment Parameters on Microstructure of ZTC4 Casting Titanium Alloy[J]. Journal of Materials Engineering, 2011, 0(9): 25-28.
Quantitative metallography technique was used to investigate the effects of hot isostatic pressing(HIP) treatment parameters on microstructure of ZTC4 casting titanium alloy.The results show that the β grain size and α lamella thickness of ZTC4 increase obviously after HIP treatment relative to as-cast microstructure of ZTC4 alloy.With the increase of temperature and holding time of HIP treatment,β grain size and α lamella thickness increase in a near linear manner with a range of 40-70μm and 0.6-1μm respectively.However,with the increase of pressure of HIP treatment,the change of β grain size and α lamella thickness occurs from increase to decrease.Compared with as-cast microstructure,the growth rates of β grain size and α lamella thickness of ZTC4 titanium alloys after HIP treatment are 12%-25% and 57%-100% respectively.

In order to understand the effect of Cu on sea water corrosion resistance of low alloy steels,two Cu-containing low alloy steels and carbon steels were selected.Their general and pitting corrosion resistance was evaluated by indoor interval hanging plate tests,marine tide hanging plate tests and simulating occluded corrosion cell tests.The composition of inclusions,corrosive feature and characteristics of rust layers were studied by scanning electron microscopy(SEM),energy dispersive analysis of X-ray(EDAX),electron probe micro-analyzer(EPMA) and X-ray diffraction(XRD).The results indicate that general corrosion resistance and pitting corrosion resistance are enhanced by addition of Cu.In macro cathodic region,addition of Cu facilitates formation of α-FeOOH,and then improves protective ability of rust layer for matrix.In acidified pits,the insoluble salt that Cu formed can repair and fill the slots and holes in rust layers,which are effective in improving resistance to pitting corrosion.
