Scope

GB/T 41076-2021 is the English-translated version of 微束分析 电子背散射衍射 钢中奥氏体的定量分析.

GB/T 41076-2021 describes how to quantify austenite in steel with electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) in a scanning electron microscope.

It covers both the amount and the morphology of the austenite, and sets out the method principle, the equipment, sampling and sample preparation, the measurement steps, data processing and the content of the inspection report.

It defines the equivalent circle diameter and the aspect ratio used to describe grain shape. The method applies to medium and low carbon steels and alloy steels whose austenite grains are larger than 50 nm; finer austenite is excluded because it would seriously affect the accuracy of the result.

An informative annex works through an example on TRIP590 steel. It was issued on 31 December 2021 and has applied since 1 July 2022.

Foreword

This document is in accordance with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part 1 Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents" drafted.

1 Scope

This document specifies the measurement of austenite in steel by electron backscatterdiffraction (EBSD) method.

Methods, equipment, sampling and sample preparation, measurement procedures, data processing and inspection reports for integration and morphology.

This document is applicable to the analysis of medium and low carbon steels and medium and low carbon alloy steels containing austenite with a grain size above 50 nm.

This document is not applicable to the analysis of austenite with a grain size smaller than 50 nm, which will seriously affect the quantification The accuracy of the analysis results.

NOTE: The lower grain size limit is the smallest observable austenite grain size. The lower grain size limit depends on equipment conditions and operating parameters.

3.1 Equivalent circle diameter

The diameter of the circle equivalent to the grain cross-sectional area.

3.2 Aspect ratio

The ratio of the short axis to the long axis of the grain cross-section fitting ellipse.

Note 1. Also known as the elongation of the grain.

Note 2. The value range of the aspect ratio is 0~1.

Note 3. There are various methods for ellipse fitting of grain sections, and the obtained aspect ratios are slightly different. […]
