Tensile Strength Properties of Niobium Alloyed Austempered Ductile Iron on different austempering time
This study focused on tensile strength properties inclusive of ultimate tensile strength and elongation values of niobium alloyed ductile iron in as cast and austempered conditions. The tensile specimens were machined according to TS 138 EN 10002-1 standard. Austempering heat treatment was conducted by first undergoing austenitizing process at 900ⅹC before rapidly quenched in salt bath furnace and held at 350ⅹC for 1 hour, 2 hours and 3 hours subsequently. The findings indicated that austempering the samples for 1 hour had resulted in improvement of almost twice of the tensile strength in niobium alloyed ductile iron. Improvement of elongations values were also noted after 1 hour austempering times. Increasing the austempering holding times to 2 hour and 3 hours had resulted in decrement in both tensile strength and elongations values.
