Abstract

Experimetnal spectrum of crystal curvature enables to discriminate between bainite and marnetsite and quantify them. To this end a main phase is fitted first to relevant spectrum tail.Derived by means of EBSD, statistics of crystal curvature in quenched low carbon steel is analyzed with allowance for its transformation kinetics in terms of dilatometry data. Based on curvature spectra sensitive to the distribution of dislocation density, fractions of martensite and bainite are quantified at high and low cooling rates. Distinction between the resulting microstructures is ascribed to various proportions of their athermal and thermally activated (rate-dependent) constituents.
