The carbon in the steel distribution

On the dual phase steel C and distribution of X-ray element Fe (sample by TU Eindhoven)

Accurate determination of carbon content of steel production and steel processing and distribution is crucial, because the lighter elements have important effects on physical properties of materials.Dual phase steel difference of two phase may show that the carbon content: in this case, martensite shows 0.3 wt. % C, ferrite showed 0.01 wt. % C.

Because QUANTAX WDS to lightElements are very sensitive, so it is in a short time, create the perfect analysis of light elements trace change tool.This figure in a short span of five minutes, shows green martensite (C content is relatively high) and red ferrite (C content is relatively low).
