Popis: | Recently, a new classification of structures has been proposed, on the basis of three groups: macrostructure (dendritic and polyhedral structure, the size and orientation of grains); mesostructure (structure within grains, cells, polygons, subgrains); and microstructure (linear and point defects, particles of second phase). In dimensional terms, macrostructure corresponds to 10 − 1 ‐10 ‐4 m; mesostructure to 10 ‐4 ‐10 ‐7 m; and microstructure to 10 ‐7 ‐10 ‐9 m. The latter group is also known as nanostructure. It has been shown that, in controlled thermoplastic hardening, the structure of steel may be regulated at all three dimensional levels. The decrease in austenite grain size is the macro level; the creation of regular dislocational structures in small grains is the meso level; and the formation of a second phase in the ferrite‐pearlite structure after diffusional transformation of small particles (plates) is the nano level. |
