Abstract

The prebainitic phenomenon in several copper alloys and ferrous alloys was investigated by means of internal friction measurement and composition analysis. The internal friction peaks of zinc or carbon atoms diffusion inβ brasses or in austenite of ferrous alloys, respectively, were related to the zinc or carbon-depleted region formation within the bainitic incubation period observed by composition analysis. The possibility of bainite shear nucleation in solute atoms’ depleted regions, formed by diffusing of solute atoms to a certain level, was pointed out.
