Microstructure, Hardness, and Tensile Properties of Vacuum Carburizing Gear Steel

We investigated the effects of the austenitizing temperature on the microstructure, hardness, and tensile properties of case-carburized steel after vacuum carburization at 930 °C and then re-austenitization at 820–900 °C followed by oil quenching and tempering. The results show that fractures occurr...
