The as-cast material showed a eutectic type microstucture, indicating partial dissolution of these carbides in the melt. Inside the dendritic regions, a bainitic/martensitic structure similar to that of the unreinforced material was present. A significant refinement of the prior austenitic grain size was revealed in the reinforced material. Brinell hardeness measurements reveal an increase of hardness in the reinforeced material due to the addition of the carbides. High strain rate compression tests were perfomed at temperatures in the range 950 and 1250ºC to determine the optimum forming conditions. Stability maps for a wide range of temperatures and strain rates were drawn. The optimum temperature for the reinforced steel is about 77 K higher than for the non-reinforced steel.5enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/restrictedAccessDevelopment of a 2.25%Cr steel P23 reinforced with micro/nano-carbide particles produced by self-propagating high-temperature synthesisconference output10.4028/www.scientific.net/MSF.879.1624Hot formingMechanical propertiesP23 steelSelf-propagating high temperature synthesisStability mapsGeneral Materials ScienceCondensed Matter PhysicsMechanics of MaterialsMechanical Engineeringhttp://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?scp=85000762827&partnerID=8YFLogxK
