On the microstructure and properties of 100Cr6 steel processed in the semi-solid state

A review on steel thixoforming

“…However, the effect on resulting mechanical properties must also be carefully weighed. [30]. Figure 3 summarises liquid fraction behaviours of the investigated steels.…”

Microstructure of Cr–V–Mo Steel Processed by Recrystallization and Partial Melting and Its Effect on Mechanical Properties

“…11(b), transgranular fractures with cleavage planes were observed on the impact fracture surface of the quenched specimen. The high residual stress stored in the martensite and the brittle chainlike carbides along the former liquid films resulted in this result in impact tests, according to the work of Püttgen et al 14) The tempering treatment changed the morphology of the carbides, reduced the residual stress inside the martensite, and rearranged the retained austenite. The microstructural evolution that occurred during the tempering treatment resulted in the higher impact energy of the RAP-processed specimen.…”

Characterization of semisolid deformation behavior and constitutive analysis of Ti230 alloy

“…Due to the presence of a small volume of liquid, the alloy in a semisolid state can be processed more easily with lower deformation resistance, lower energy cost, and better formability than that in a solid state (Eskin et al 2004;Chino et al 2003 On account of these advantages, the semisolid deformation behaviors of Al, Mg alloy, and steel have been carried out by many scientists and engineers all over the world, and many useful results have been obtained (Püttgen et al 2007;Iwasaki et al 1998;Möller et al 2010;Hu et al 2009). However, the semisolid deformation behavior of titanium alloys, which is widely used in many fields, has not been investigated.…”
