The effect of heat treatment on microstructure and hardness of internal crack healing in a low carbon steel was studied. The internal cracks were produced into the samples by a drilling and compression method. The microstructure of crack healing zone was examined using optical microscopy (OM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The hardness of crack healing zone was measured using a Vickers micro-hardness testing machine (FM-800). The results show that healing temperature plays a more significant role in internal crack healing than holding time. Compared as-quenched samples with as-normalized samples under the same healing parameters, it is found that cooling speed is also an important factor for internal crack healing. The migration and enrichment of iron atoms provide material source for recrystallization and grain growth of crack healing zone. The existence of micro-voids leads to the hardness of the ferrite in the crack healing zone lower than that in the matrix.

Abstract With the rapid development of materials, metal materials are used less and less, but at this stage, metal materials are still widely used, and iron and steel materials are the most widely used. Cracks often appear in the process of metal material processing and use, and these cracks will have a certain impact on the use of metal materials. The existence of microcracks will affect the mechanical properties of materials to some extent, but in most cases, the mechanical properties of materials will be greatly reduced, and in serious cases, metal materials will break directly in the process of use or processing. The crack healing process needed after the emergence of cracks can effectively change this situation, but so far, the research on metal crack healing is still not perfect. In this paper, taking the internal crack of low carbon steel as the object, the recovery of mechanical properties of low carbon steel by cyclic phase transformation heat treatment was studied. The results show that with the increase of the healing area, the microhardness of the area after crack healing also increases, and the tensile strength of the specimen also increases after the healing. When the healing area is similar, increasing the healing time and temperature will result in grain coarsening, resulting in the decrease of microhardness and tensile strength in the crack healing zone.
