Effect of Copper on Carbon Diffusivity in PremoMet® Alloy Problem Statement: Determine the mechanism behind PremoMet® alloys’ mechanical proper/es. Objec/ve: Determine how carbon diffusivity is affected by alloying elements such as copper? Key Findings: • • Carbon diffusion coefficients • • Decreased with increasing copper content from 0 to 0.5 wt.%, then increased. More dependent on copper at higher temperatures. Carbon clustering • Up to 20 at.% carbon enrichment at clusters. • 0 wt.% Cu had longer clusters. • 0.5 wt.% Cu had much less clustering. • 1 wt.% Cu had more clustering and a smaller cluster size. Dynamic Characteriza/on Group Approach: • Direct Method: Carburiza/on • Calcula/on of diffusion coefficients from carbon profiles. • Mechanical proper/es. • Indirect Method: Tempering Kine/cs • Mechanical proper/es. • Atom Probe Tomography (APT) analysis of carbon clustering.
