Abstract
The influence of both tempering temperature and time on the microstruc ture of 0.3C- 1.1 Mn-0.3Mo-0.2.Cr steel was investigated. The developm ent of carbide particles from various points of view that is crystallo graphy, chemical composition, size, morphology, and distribution, were also considered. Carbide particles were studied by means of transmiss ion electron microscopy including EDX and electron diffraction. The on ly carbide type found in the microstructure of the experimental steel was M(3)C. Manganese was discovered to be the most active in partition ing of alloying elements between ferrite and M(3)C carbide.
