Carburized High Temperature Steels.
Abstract:
A detailed fracture toughness evaluation before and after a 1000-hour treatment at 315 C 600 F of candidate steels for use at elevated temperatures in the carburized condition showed that CBS1000 offered the best combination of toughness and retention of hardness at elevated temperature. The toughness of X2M and X-53 decreased by about 50 during the 1000-hour treatment while that of CBS1000 changed very little. A separate study comparing six experimental steels concluded that a composition similar to that of CBS1000 had the highest impact fracture strength, even higher than that of SAE 9310. Author
