Microstructure evolution of carbidic austempered ductile iron at different austempering temperatures
Journal of Materials Science, 2020This work aims to elucidate the microstructure characteristics of each phase in carbidic austempered ductile iron and the nucleation and growth of acicular ferrite in an austempering temperature range of 250–450 °C. The research results showed that the carbides (Fe, Cr)3C obtained by the eutectic reaction had high indentation hardness and indentation ...

Abstract The tribological behavior of austempered ductile iron (ADI) obtained at different austempering temperatures is investigated. The microstructure of ADI is consisted of spheroidal graphite, retained austenite and acicular ferrite. The volume fraction of retained austenite and the thickness of acicular ferrite increase with increasing ...

Effect of austempering temperature on microstructure of ausferrite in austempered ductile iron
Materials Science and Technology, 2019The effect of austempering temperature on the microstructure of ausferrite in austempered ductile iron was investigated. The results show that the grain sizes of retained austenite and acicular bainitic ferrite both become larger with the increase of austempering temperature.

Dependence of fracture toughness of austempered ductile iron on austempering temperature
Metallurgical and Materials Transactions A, 1998Ductile cast iron samples were austenitized at 927 °C and subsequently austempered for 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 2 hours at 260 °C, 288 °C, 316 °C, 343 °C, 371 °C, and 399 °C. These were subjected to a plane strain fracture toughness test. Fracture toughness was found to initially increase with austempering temperature, reach a maximum, and then decrease

Tensile properties of copper alloyed austempered ductile iron: Effect of austempering parameters
Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance, 2004A ductile iron containing 0.6% copper as the main alloying element was austenitized at 850 °C for 120 min and was subsequently austempered for 60 min at austempering temperatures of 270, 330, and 380 °C. The samples were also austempered at 330 °C for austempering times of 30–150 min.
