Carburizing implies the existence of a carbon gradient from the surface to the core of the steel, which in turn will affect both the critical temperature for austenite formation and the kinetics of the bainitic transformation during the austempering treatment. Therefore, for future development of carbo-austempered steels with nanobainitic microstructures in the case, it is key to understand the effect of such carbon gradient has on the final microstructure and the mechanical properties reached by the heat treatments used. This work was divided into two parts, firstly two alloys with similar carbon content to those at the surface and center of the carburized steel were used to establish the optimal heat treatment parameters and to study bainite transformation kinetics by high resolution dilatometry. In a second step, a carburized alloy is produced and subjected to the designed heat treatments, in order to evaluate the microstructure and mechanical properties developed. Results thus obtained are compared with those obtained in the same carburized alloy after following the most common quench and temper treatment.

Abstract: This paper shows results for the evaluation of ASTM A36 carbon steel welded joints by Magnetic Barkhausen Noise (MBN). V-groove shape welded samples were made in a 6 mm thickness plates, with one-pass and two-pass. Microstructural and microhardness characterization were made on a transversal section of welds. In the surface was made measurement of MBN. The signal of MBN

Para el estudio se utilizaron dos tipos de electrodos: austenítico AWS E309L y dúplex AWS E2209-16, ambos con un diámetro de 3,2 mm. Las uniones soldadas se realizaron con un solo pase y se variaron simultáneamente la corriente y la velocidad de soldadura; las condiciones fueron 49 A y 2,4 mm.s -1 como valores bajos y 107 A y 4,3 mm.s -1 como valores altos. Se evaluó la influencia del tipo de electrodo y de los parámetros de soldadura en la evolución microestructural de las zonas afectadas por el calor y de las zonas de fusión, encontrando diferencias en la morfología y cantidad de ferrita delta para todas las condiciones estudiadas. Se evidenció crecimiento y refinación de grano ferrítico y formación de martensita en la zona afectada por el calor del metal base ferrítico. Se evaluó también la resistencia a la tensión hallando similitudes en todas las soldaduras.Palabras-clave: Soldadura de aceros inoxidables; SMAW; Metalurgia de la soldadura; Acero inoxidable austenítico; Acero inoxidable ferrítico.
Microstructural Transformations in Dissimilar Welds between Austenitic Stainless Steel and Ferritic Stainless SteelAbstract: This research studies the metallurgical transformations taking place the SMAW welding of AISI 316L austenitic stainless steel with AISI 430 ferritic stainless steel. To perform the study were used two different electrodes, AWS E309L austenitic and AWS E2209-16 duplex stainless steels 3.2 mm diameter. The joints were made with a single-pass welding including current and welding speed variations; the low values were 49 A and 2,4 mm.s -1 and the high values were 107 A and 4,3 mm.s -1 . This study evaluated the influence of the type of electrode and the welding parameters on the microstructural evolution of heat affected and fusion zones. Also, differences were found on morphology and delta ferrite amount for all weld metals. The heat affected zone of the ferritic side showed grain coarsening and grain refinement with martensite at the grain boundaries. Tensile strength was similar for all welded joints.

IntroducciónLos aceros inoxidables (AI) son ampliamente usados en aplicaciones a elevadas temperaturas cuando los aceros al carbono y los aceros de baja aleación no presentan una adecuada resistencia a la corrosión. Los aceros inoxidables austeníticos (AIA) tienen mejor resistencia a la corrosión que los aceros inoxidables ferríti...
