  1. 1. Aspects of microstructural evolution in chromium steels in high temperature applications

    Author : Åsa Gustafson; KTH; []
    Keywords : Cr-steels; nucleation; coarsening; model; DICTRA; precipitates; carbides; carbo-nitrides; MX; VN; M23C6; TiC; TEM; EFTEM; Curie-temperature;

    Abstract : In this thesis 9-12 % Cr steels, used for high-temperaturecomponents in fossil-fired power plants are considered. Thecreep strength of thees steels depend on their microstructurethat consists of a matrix of tempered lath martensite withdensely distributed precipitates. READ MORE

  3. 3. Atomistic simulation and experimental studies of transition metal systems involving carbon and nitrogen

    Author : Jiaying Xie; Seshadri Seetharaman; Oleg Ostrovski; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transition metal carbides; Transition metal nitrides; Transition metal carbo-nitrides; Lattice inversion method; Interatomic potential; Atomistic simulation; Metallurgical process engineering; Metallurgisk processteknik;

    Abstract : The present work was initiated to investigate the stability, structural and thermodynamic properties of transition metal carbides, nitrides and carbo-nitrides by atomistic simulations and experimentations. The interatomic pair potentials of Cr-Cr, Mn-Mn, Fe-Fe, C-C, Cr-C, Mn-C, Fe-C, Cr-Fe, Cr-N and Mn-N were inverted by the lattice inversion method and ab initio cohesive energies, and then employed to investigate the properties of Cr-, Mn- and Fe-carbides by atomistic simulations in this work.

  4. 4. Development of Composition Gradients in Cemented Carbides

    Author : Robert Frykholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; EPMA; DICTRA; functionally graded materials; gradient sintering; diffusion; APFIM; thermodynamic modelling; SEM; surface zones;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the formation of tough surface zones, depleted of cubic carbo-nitrides, in cemented carbides. Several materials with varied phase compositions, binder phase volume fraction, and carbon content have been investigated. READ MORE

  5. 5. Thermodynamic investigations of transition metal systems containing coabon and nitrogen

    Author : Lidong Teng; Seshadri Seetharaman; Tooru Matsumiya; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; thermodynamic activity; galvanic cell technique; transition metal carbides; transition metal nitrides; phase equilibrium; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : In view of the important applications of carbides and carbo-nitrides of transition metals in the heat-resistant and hard materials industries, the thermodynamic activities of Cr and Mn in the Cr-C, Fe-Cr-C, Mn-Ni-C and Mn-Ni-C-N systems have been studied in the present work by the use of the galvanic cell technique. CaF2single crystals were used as the solid electrolyte. READ MORE
