The microstructure of the steel as determined by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, electron backscattering diffraction and X-ray diffraction was presented, and the low-temperature mechanical properties were given. The size of prior austenite grain did not change a lot as Mn content increased. Film-like reversed austenite, having high stability, was found mainly in the specimens with lower Mn content; however, in the specimen with the highest Mn content, the role of Mn was not obvious in stabilizing reversed austenite. Besides, with increasing Mn content, the amount of reversed austenite at grain boundaries gradually decreased. The variable Mn content had a significant effect on cryogenic toughness~ but not apparent on cryogenic tensile strength or yield strength. An excellent combination of cryogenic tensile and impact properties was obtained when Mn content of steel was 0.13%.展开更多

The effect of Mn-Zn ferrites doped with H3BO3 was investigated on the basis of microstructure analysis. The results of the samples doped with H3BO3 less than 5 × 10^-5 showed that the doping had no significant effect on power loss, initial permeability, fine grain microstructure, and density of Mn-Zn ferrites. With the further increase in H3BO3 doping （up to 1 × 10 ^-4 ）, the microstructure of Mn-Zn ferrites is in the critical state between fine grain and ＂sandwich＂, and the initial permeability and density of Mn-Zn ferrites begin falling quickly; the increased H3BO3 doping also results in deteriorated power loss properties. Thus, the control of the boron content in iron oxide is of utmost importance for the quality of Mn-Zn ferrites in producing process.展开更多
