RT Journal Article T1 Positron Annihilation Spectroscopy Study of Carbon-Vacancy Interaction in Low-Temperature Bainite A1 Rementeria, Rosalia A1 Domínguez Reyes, Ricardo A1 Capdevila, Carlos A1 Garcia Mateo, Carlos A1 Caballero, Francisca G. AB Nano-scale investigations of bainitic structures formed at temperatures below 350 °C have shown that the bainitic ferrite lattice is super-saturated in carbon. A high density of intrinsic defects would be playing a part in the carbon-supersaturation levels detected. In this work, the role of C−vacancy complexes on carbon-supersaturation in low temperature bainite is investigated by means of Positron Annihilation Spectroscopy. Results reveal the presence of a significant amount of monovacancies in the structures that plays an important role on the formation of carbon clusters in the ferrite lattice of nano-scale bainitic structures.
