Abstract
Three different white cast irons alloyed with Cr, V, Mo and W were prepared in order to study their transformation behavior of matrix structures in heat-treated conditions. The specimens were produced using a 15kg-capacity high frequency induction furnace. Melts were super-heated to $1600^{\circ}C$, and poured at $1550^{\circ}C$ into Y-block pepset molds. Three combinations of the alloying elements were selected so as to obtain the different types of carbides and matrix structures : 3%C-10%Cr-5%Mo-5%W(alloy No. 1), 3%C-10%V-5%Mo-5%W(alloy No. 2) and 3%C-17%Cr-3%V(alloy No. 3). The heat-treatments were conducted as follows: frist of all, as-cast specimens were homogenized at $950^{\circ}C$ for 5h under the vacuum atmosphere. Then, they were austenitized at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 2h and followed by air-hardening in air. The air-hardened specimens were tempered at $300^{\circ}C$ for 3h. The observation of morphology of the matrix structures was carried out in the states of as-cast(AS), air-hardened(AHF) and tempered(AHFT). The matrix structures of each alloy were almost fully pearlitic in the as-cast state but it was transformed to martensite, tempered martensite and retained austenite by the heat-treatments such as air-hardening and tempering.
3%C-10%Cr-5%Mo-5%W, 3%C-10%V-5%Mo-5%W 및 3%C-17%Cr-3%V의 3종류 고합금백주철에 있어서 열처리후의 기지조직의 변태거동을 연구하였다. 15kg 용량의 고주파 유도용해로에 선철, 고철, Fe-Cr, Fe-V, Fe-Mo 및 Fe-W 등을 장입시켜 용해시킨 후 슬래그를 제거시키고 $1550^{\circ}C$에서 Y-block의 펩 주형에 주입시켰다. 적당한 크기로 절단한 시편을 진공분위기하에$950^{\circ}C$에서 5시간동안 우선 균질화처리를 실시하였다. 그 후 다시 이 시편을 $1050^{\circ}C$에서 2시간동안 오스테나이징시킨 후 강제공냉을 행하였다. 강제공냉된 시편을 $300^{\circ}C$에서 3시간 유지시킨 후 템퍼링을 실시하였다. 주방상태에서의 기지조직은 3합금 공히 퍼얼라이트이었으며 강제공냉후에는 마르텐사이트 및 오스테나이트로 변태하였다. 또한 기지조직내에 무수히 많은 이차탄화물 입자들의 석출되었다. 템프링 후 일부 오스테나이트 및 마르텐사이트는 템퍼드마르텐사이트로 변태하였다. 변태하였다.
