Samples were formed by die wall lubricated warm compaction method,then,sintered in hydrogen atmosphere at 1 150 ℃ for 1 h and cooled at 4.6,2.9 and 1.5 ℃/s,respectively,from 900 ℃ down to 600 ℃.

The sintered material has a tensile strength of 872 MPa and an apparent hardness of HB 257 at a cooling rate of 4.6 ℃/s. Slight shrinkage is observed. Heterogeneous microstructures containing martensite,bainite,pearlite and nickel-rich retained austenite are observed in the material. Higher martensite content can be obtained at higher cooling rate,while,at lower cooling rate,pearlite and retained austenite dominated the microstructure.展开更多
