Figure 1
(a) Scanning electron microscope image of SUS301/SUS420J2 austenite–martensite multilayered steel along the thickness direction. Black shading denotes martensite (M) and gray shading denotes austenite (A). (b) Grain orientation map of the martensite–austenite layers obtained from EBSD. The various colors in the inset standard inverse pole figure (IPF) scale are used to denote the different grain orientations in the IPF mappings of martensite blocks and austenite grains by referring to the normal direction (ND) of multilayered steel; for example, the red grains have 〈001〉 || ND, the green grains have 〈110〉 || ND and the blue grains have 〈111〉 || ND. Grain boundaries are shown with a misorientation angle of 15°. |
