摘要: The effect of manganese (Mn) on the microstructure, tensile and impact properties SA508Gr.4N steel has been experimentally investigated. influence Mn content substructure was investigated using scanning electron microscope, back-scattered diffractometer transmission microscope. It found that increased had a beneficial both strength toughness. Examination microstructure revealed smaller size block larger number high-angle grain boundaries with higher content. change ultimate toughness increasing attributed to hardenability, crack propagation path by refining.
