The kinetics of Nb(C,N) precipitation occurring during the isothermal ferritic (alpha) transformation were quantitatively measured, along with the transformation kinetics at intercritical temperatures ranging from 710 to 790 degrees C in a Nb-microalloyed steel by means of electrical resistivity and dilatometry. The precipitation occurred most rapidly at 750 degrees C, which corresponds to a bay temperature on the start curve of the ferritic transformation of the transformation-time-temperature diagram. While interphase precipitation was observed at and above the bay temperature, precipitation in the alpha matrix was predominantly below the bay temperature. However, precipitation in the untransformed austenite (gamma) matrix during the ferritic transformation was also observed, regardless of the intercritical temperatures. It is suggested that the precipitation occurring in the untransformed gamma matrix during the ferritic transformation was accelerated owing to carbon enrichment from the alpha matrix to the gamma matrix during the ferritic transformation. The average size of Nb(C,N) particles observed in the alpha matrix was slightly larger than that of the gamma matrix at a given intercritical temperature. This result is proposed to arise primarily from the rapid diffusion of solute Nb atoms in the body-centered cubic alpha matrix. (C) 2013 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
