HEAT TREATMENT OF IRON-SILICON RELAY STEELSX2.1 Heat treatment of parts made from iron-silicon relaysteels is necessary to obtain the best magnetic performance.

37、Magnetic behavior improves (that is, permeability increasesand coercive field strength decreases) when heat treating isperformed at temperatures as low as 700C. For steel Types 2,2F, and 3, further improvement in magnetic performanceoccurs as the heat-treating temperature is increased. SteelTypes 1

38、and 1F will show a decline in magnetic performancewhen heat treated above 870C as a result of austenitizationand subsequent grain refinement upon cooling. Most com-monly, heat treatment is conducted at temperatures of approxi-mately 840C for a minimum of 2 h followed by slow cooling.X2.2 A protectiv

39、e nonoxidizing, noncarburizing, and non-nitriding atmosphere should be used. Low dew-point atmo-spheres such as hydrogen, forming gas (5 to 15 % hydrogen-nitrogen), and dissociated ammonia can be used. Vacuum heattreatment can also be used.X2.3 Further improvement in magnetic characteristics isachie

40、vable by using a higher dew-point (20 to 5C) hydrogenor forming gas atmosphere to promote decarburization. How-ever, the high dew-point atmospheres should not be used (1) attemperatures in excess of 950C, (2) when heat treating steelType 3, or (3) when the part, produced from any type, is to beplate

41、d after heat treatment.X2.4 Iron-silicon relay steels are very prone to rustingunder ordinary atmospheric conditions. A protective coatingshould be applied to heat-treated parts as soon as possible.Chromium, nickel, or cadmium plating is most commonlyused.ASTM International takes no position respect
