Abstract

The available data on the solubility of niobium carbide and niobium carbonitride in plain carbon and alloyed austenite has been analyzedvia dilute solution thermodynamics with a view to establishing a consistent set of interaction parameters for predicting austenite + niobium carbonitride equilibria. The computation algorithm includes the prediction of phase mass fractions as a function of alloy composition and temperature between 900° and 1300 °C (tie lines). Analogous ferrite equilibria are included.
