Abstract

Abstract: Effects of Si, V and Ti alloying elements on the microstructure and mechanical properties of 40Cr13 martensitic stainless steel were studied by means of optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, room temperature tensile test and room temperature impact test. The results show that the addition of V and Ti alloy elements to the 40Cr13 martensitic stainless steel effectively inhibit the precipitation of (Fe, Cr)₂₃C₆ carbides. The hardness and impact property of the 40Cr13 martensitic stainless steel are effectively improved by increasing the content of Si element. The addition of 0.21%V improves the strength and hardness of the 40Cr13 martensitic stainless steel, but the addition of 0.21%Ti reduces the strength and hardness of the 40Cr13 martensitic stainless steel. The addition of V and Ti alloy elements at the same time reduces the tensile strength and yield strength of the 40Cr13 martensitic stainless steel slightly, but improves the impact toughness of the 40Cr13 steel effectively.
