Microstructural Evolution of C-Mn Dual Phase Steel During Intermediate Quenching: A Comparative Study of Subcritical, Intercritical, and Suppercritical Annealing by M. Jaberi, M. Rezayat, S. Hossein-Nedjad

“…Annealing martensitic microstructure at intercritical temperatures also occurs in three stages: The first stage is the tempering of martensite, the second stage is the nucleation and growth of austenite in tempered martensite with the dissolution of carbides, and the third stage is the coarsening of the two-phase microstructure, which is associated with a reduction in hardness. An increase in temperature to upper-critical temperatures also causes the appearance of these three stages, but due to the accelerated diffusion at high temperatures, these stages are shortened and merged together.…”
