In this study, the phase transformation behaviour of the carburised layer and the matrix of 23CrNi3Mo steel was comparatively investigated by constructing continuous cooling transformation (CCT) diagram, determining the volume fraction of retained austenite (RA) and plotting dilatometric curves. The results indicated that Austenite formation start temperature (Ac1) and Austenite formation finish temperature (Ac3) of the carburised layer decreased compared to the matrix, and the critical cooling rate (0.05 °C/s) of martensite transformation is significantly lower than that (0.8 °C/s) of the matrix. The main products of phase transformation in both the carburised layer and the matrix were martensite and bainite microstructures. Moreover, an increase in carbon content resulted in the formation of lamellar martensite in the carburised layer, whereas the martensite in the matrix was still lath. Furthermore, the volume fraction of RA in the carburised layer was higher than that in the matrix. Moreover, the bainite transformation kinetics of the 23CrNi3Mo steel matrix during the continuous cooling process indicated that the mian mechanism of bainite transformation of the 23CrNi3Mo steel matrix is two-dimensional growth and one-dimensional growth.

ABSTRACTGadolinium zirconate, Gd2Zr2O7, undergoes an order-disorder transition at ∼1550°C, transforming from a defect fluorite structure (Fm3m) to a pyrochlore structure (Fd3m). Both cations and anions are ordered in the low-temperature, pyrochlore structure. In order to understand the interplay between anion and cation order parameters and ordering rates, the transformation kinetics of Gd2Zr2O7 have been examined via X-ray diffraction. Gadolinium zirconate is of particular interest because the oxygen ion conductivity of the ordered phase is significantly greatly than that of the disordered phase, in contrast to virtually every other known solid electrolyte. This difference in conductivity has provided a second technique for characterizing the transformation kinetics: in situ A.C. impedance spectroscopy. Results of the X-ray diffraction showed the growth of superstructure peak intensity to follow an apparent (time)½ dependence, rather than that expected from a nucleation and growth model. The impedance spectroscopy measurements, on the other hand, showed the conductivity to increase linearly with time. These results suggest the transition is second order in nature.

The modelling of the correlation between pressure, specific volume and temperature (pvT) of polymers is highly important for applications in the polymer processing of semi-crystalline thermoplastics, especially in injection moulding. In injection moulding, the polymer experiences a wide range of cooling rates, for example, 60 °C/min near the centre of the part and up to 3000 °C/min near the mould walls. The cooling rate has a high influence on the pvT behaviour, as was shown in the continuous two-domain pvT model (CTD). This work examined the Hoffman–Lauritzen nucleation and growth theory used in the modified Hammami model for extremely high cooling rates (up to 300,000 °C/min) by means of Flash differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) measurements. The results were compared to those of the empirical continuous two-domain pvT model. It is shown that the Hammami model is not suitable to predict the crystallisation kinetics of polypropylene at cooling rates above 600 °C/min, but that the continuous two-domain pvT model is well able to predict crystallisation temperatures at high cooling rates.
