Hi,
What changes will happen to retained austenite in a martensite matrix during tempering of martensite in an alloy steel @740 C-760 C (ie, below Ac1 temperature)?Will retained austenite transform to martensite (untempered) during tempering or retained austenite will stay as it is during tempering??Is there any possibility for a transformation from retained austenite to pearlite/bainite during tempering??I am confusedAny help would be highly appreciated.
PS:I am not looking for a cryogenic treatment to transform all retained austenite to martensite and further tempering solution to this problem.
Thanks
