Abstract
In this work, AISI 4340 steel was produced by powder metallurgy. Samples were sintered at 1150?C for 90 min. and then cooled in the furnace. Except to those in the as-sintered condition, one of the produced samples was homogenized at 1150?C for 1 h and then cooled in air. Other samples were deformed at the temperature range of 1150-930?C and deformation rate of 30 and 60% followed by cooling in sand, air and water mediums. The grain size gradually decreased depending on the deformation rate or cooling rate in AISI 4340 steel. Small grains occurred due to completely recrystallization at 60% deformation rate. Density and hardness also increased by the increase in deformation rate. The results showed that hot deformation is a process that is capable of improving the properties of AISI 4340 steel produced by powder metallurgy without rising the addition of alloying elements.
期刊介绍：
Science of Sintering is a unique journal in the field of science and technology of sintering.
Science of Sintering publishes papers on all aspects of theoretical and experimental studies, which can contribute to the better understanding of the behavior of powders and similar materials during consolidation processes. Emphasis is laid on those aspects of the science of materials that are concerned with the thermodynamics, kinetics and mechanism of sintering and related processes. In accordance with the significance of disperse materials for the sintering technology, papers dealing with the question of ultradisperse powders, tribochemical activation and catalysis are also published.
Science of Sintering journal is published four times a year.
Types of contribution: Original research papers, Review articles, Letters to Editor, Book reviews.
