Abstract

Nano-steels are used in automotive applications to accomplish resource-efficiency while providing high-tech properties. Quantitative data and further understanding on the precipitation kinetics in Nano-steels can contribute to fulfil this goal. Small-Angle Neutron Scattering measurements are performed on a Fe-C-Mn-V steel, previously heat-treated in a dilatometer at 650o C for several holding times from seconds to 10 hours. The evolution of the precipitate volume fraction, size distribution and number density is calculated by fitting the experimental Small-Angle Neutron Scattering curves. The effect of phase transformation on precipitation kinetics is also discussed. Complementary Transmission Electron Microscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy and Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy measurements are performed to support the Small-Angle Neutron Scattering data analysis.
