Properties of these martensitic stainless steel are heavily influenced by chemical composition and structure of the material after heat treatment. Structure of these steels after quenching is formed with martensite and residual austenite. When tempering the steel the carbon content in martensite is reduced and gently deposited carbides occur. The way of heat treatment has a major impact on structure of martensitic steels with low carbon content and thus on strength, hardness and elongation to fracture of these steels. Chemical composition of the melt has been treated to the desired composition of the lower, middle and upper bounds of the nickel content in the steel within the limits allowed by the standard. Test blocks were gradually cast from the melt. The influence of the nickel equivalent value on structure and properties of the 1.4317 steel was determined from results of mechanical tests.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Influence of Heat Treatments and Ni Content on Properties of Martensitic Stainless Steel}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/106809/PDF/AFE%202_2018_40.pdf}, keywords={Stainless steels, Nickel equivalent, mechanical properties, structure, volume of ferrite}, }
