Abstract

The aim of this study is to reveal the effect of Mo on coarsening of (Ti, Mo)C particles in austenite of a Ti-Mo-bearing steel. (Ti, Mo)C particles with a core–shell structure including a Ti-rich core and a Ti, Mo-rich shell were directly observed using high-resolution, high-angle, angular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy. Coarsening of (Ti, Mo)C particles is significantly decelerated due to the formation of a Mo-enriched shell, which is expected to reduce interfacial energy.
