Solution-treated Super304H austenitic steel samples containing a few primary carbonitrides were aged at 923 K for 5000 h. The results show that the primary carbonitrides in the Super304H steel are non-stoichiometric compounds enriched in Nb and with a NaCl-type structure. The crystal structure of the Nb-rich carbonitrides is in a disordered state in the solution-treated steel, while in an ordered state in the aged steel. This observation suggests the occurrence of a disorder?order structural transition in the primary carbonitrides during long-term aging. We found that such a disorder?order structural transition is accompanied by carbon diffusion from the primary carbonitrides into the austenitic matrix. The ordering phenomenon is discussed based on the long-range ordering of structure vacancies in the non-metal lattice of the superstructure, providing new insights for the understanding of ordering in non-stoichiometric compounds. dc:format: application/pdf; version=1.5 pdf:docinfo:creator_tool: LaTeX with hyperref package access_permission:fill_in_form: true pdf:encrypted: false dc:title: Ordering of Primary Carbonitrides in an Austenitic Steel Revealed by Transmission Electron Microscopy and Atom Probe Tomography modified: 2019-01-07T09:54:03Z cp:subject: We reveal for the first time an ordering phenomenon of a type of carbonitrides in a Super304H austenitic steel via the techniques of transmission electron microscopy and atom probe tomography.
