Effect of quenching and tempering on microstructure and mechanical properties of 1Cr16Ni4Nb steel

Abstract

The effect of quenching and tempering performed before general heat treatment on the microstructures and mechanical properties of the new Nb-added martensitic heat-resistant stainless steel 1Cr16Ni4Nb was studied.The results show that the microstructures of 1Cr16Ni4Nb steel are more homogeneous,and the toughness improves after adding quenching and tempering.
