THERMOMECHANICAL PROCESSING OF CHROMOMOLIBDENUM ROLLING IN THE CONDITIONS OF JSC BMZ – MANAGEMENT COMPANY OF HOLDING BMK by V. A. Lutsenko, T. N. Golubenko, O. V. Lutsenko, P. A. Bobkov, L. A. Drobyshevsky

“…It is shown that after thermo-mechanical processing of chrome-molybdenic rolled metal including cooling with a speed of 0,6-0,8 ° C / sec, the quantity of bainite increases to 75% and the amount of lamellar pearlite decreases to 5-10% in structure that promotes reduction of the mode of subsequent softening processing. It is established that at cooling with a specified speed the transformations in chrome-molybdenic steel come to an end at temperatures of 350-370 ° C. …”
