Evaluation of Temper Embrittlement in 2.25 Cr- 1 Mo Weld Metals Utilizing X-Ray Diffraction.

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Temper embrittlement in low alloy steel is a phenomenon of reversible embrittlement occurring when a susceptible alloy is held in or slowly cooled through a temperature range of 1100 - 650 °F (13). Characteristics of this type of embrittlement are a reduction in notch toughness, an increase in the ductile-to-brittle transition temperature as measured by Charpy vee-notch impact tests, and a change in fracture mode from ductile transgranular to brittle intergranular.
