In this paper the effect of normalizing and tempering (N&T) thermal treatment on mechanical properties of a novel 7.0% Cr steel for forged components is studied. The main innovation is in the increased hardenability following the higher Cr content with respect to the more common 5% Cr steel allowing to lower the content of other chemical elements aimed to achieve the target mechanical properties. Results show that in the case of 7.0% Cr steel, following the high intrinsic hardenability, the austenitic grain size effect on microstructure after cooling is really poor.

In this paper the effect of quenching and tempering (Q&T) thermal treatment on mechanical properties of a novel 6.5% Cr steel for forged components is studied. The main innovation is in the increased hardenability following the higher Cr content with respect to the more common 5% Cr steel allowing to lower the content of other chemical elements aimed to achieve the target mechanical properties. Following to the high intrinsic hardenability of such steel based on the Cr content a poor effect of prior austenite grain size should be expected after quenching. Aim of this work is to evaluate such effect and to analyse the dependence of mechanical properties on it.

The paper presents results of investigations of α-Ti microhardness modified by aluminum ions having diverse grain sizes, namely: 0.3 μm, 1.5 μm, and 17 μm. These investigations show that the decrease of the grain size and the additional ion implantation result in the significant modification of the structural and phase state of the alloy and its mechanical properties.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of grain size on mechanical properties of commercially pure grade 2 (CP2) titanium bar with a diameter of 5 mm. The results reveal that the microstructure of β-phase forms when the annealing temperature exceeds 800oC. The formation of β-phase leads to reduce the ductility but increase hardness. The strength coefficient, yielding stress and hardness decrease with increasing of grain size when the microstructure of specimen is the α-phase.
