A TRANSMISSION ELETRON MICROSCOPY STUDY ON A NEW TYPE OF ULTRAHIGH STRENGTH STAINLESS STEEL S280

摘要:

为了防止涂层工艺产生的副作用，开发了一种环保型的飞机起落架用超高强度不锈钢S280。新超高强度不锈钢S280具有等于或高于常规超高强度钢的力学性能，且有更好的耐腐蚀性。通过热处理工艺实验确定了超高强度不锈钢S280合适的热处理工艺（1080 ℃，保温1 h，油冷；-73 ℃，2 h，空气中回到室温：540℃，4 h，空冷）。S280钢热处理后，强度大于1900 MPa，K1C大于90 MPa?m1/2。利用透射电子显微镜和高分辨电子显微镜研究了540℃和600℃时效态的S280新型超高强度不锈钢微观组织结构。结果表明：S280钢540℃时效状态，在高密度位错的板条状马氏体基体上析出弥散细小的强化相，一种是已为很多研究报道的超高强度钢中强化相Fe2Mo[1]，另一种析出相是Cr2C，目前还没有相关报道。本文首次发现了这种强化相，测定了其与马氏体的晶体学取向关系为： ( 1 -1 0 )M // (-1 2 -1 )Cr2C，[ 1 1 1 ]M // [ 1 1 1 ]Cr2C。 S280钢在600℃时效态也析出这两种Cr2C和Fe2Mo相，与540℃时效态相比，只是其有所长大。利用X射线能谱分析法对Cr2C析出相进行了分析，结果表明，Cr2C析出相中Cr和Mo的含量较高。

Abstract:

The ultra-high-strength stainless steel with high strength and toughness, high inherent fatigue strength and good corrosion resistance can be mainly used in some load- bearing components, such as landing gear, gas turbine engine shaft, and wheel bolts that working under corrosion environment. An environmental friendly ultra high strength stainless steel S280 for a new type of aircraft landing gear was developed in order to avoid the toxic effect of protective coating processes. The new ultra high strength stainless steel S280 has mechanical properties equal to, or better than conventional ultrahigh strength steels with the added benefit of modest corrosion resistance. By heat treatment process experiments and mechanical tests, the appropriate heat treatment process of S280 steel (Heating to 1080 ℃，holding at heat for one hour, and quenching in oil, cooling to -73℃, holding at this temperature for two hours, and warming in air to room temperature and then heating to 540℃, holding at heat for four hours, and cooling in air) was found in this paper. After heat treated under the appropriate heat treatment process,S280 steel can get good comprehensive performance, with the strength of 1900MPa, and KIC of 90MPa?m1/2. The new ultrahigh strength stainless steel S280, which apply low-carbon martensitic transformation hardening and aging strengthening superimposed, has high performance and can replace the existing Aer-Met100,300M steel material used for aircraft landing gear. The microstructures of new ultrahigh strength stainless steel S280 after thermal ageing at 540℃ and 600℃ was investigated by optical microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM).The results show that the S280 steel aged at 540℃ has desirable microstructures, which is fine lath martensite matrix with high-density dislocation and finely dispersed precipitate strengthening phase, and film-like reversed austenite precipitated from the boundary of martensite. The strengthening phases of the steel include Fe2Mo[1], Fe3C and Cr2C. There is no related report about that Cr2C precipitated from ultrahigh strength steel as a strengthening phase. In this paper, it was firstly discovered. And the crystallographic orientation relationship between Cr2C and matrix was measured: (1 -1 0 )M // ( -1 2 -1 )Cr2C, [ 1 1 1 ]M // [ 1 1 1 ]Cr2C The steel aged at the different temperature of 600℃ and 540℃ have the same precipitated phases Cr2C and Fe2Mo. The precipitated phases are relatively bigger than that of sample aged at 540℃.The strengthening phases of S280 steel have a high content of Cr and Co analyzed by energy spectrum analysis (EDS).
