Increased Fracture Toughness in a 300 Grade Maraging Steel as a Result of Thermal Cycling
Systematic changes in the fracture toughness of a 300 grade commercial maraging steel were obtained using a non-standard heat-treating process. Microstructures consisting of variable amounts of retained austenite in an aged martensitic matrix were produced. A mathematical model is presented relating these toughness values to the properties of the individual constituents. Increases in fracture toughness resulting from the non-standard heat-treatment were attributed to the nature of the distribution of the tough phrase (retained austenite) in a brittle matrix of precipitation hardened martensite. In some cases, a strain-induced transformation to martensite was observed which greatly added to the toughness. Some improvements in fatigue crack propagation characteristics also resulted from this heat treatment. (Author)
