On the size effect for neutron diffraction by two-phase structures and applicability of composite standards in analysis of residual austenite in steels
Abstract:
The possibility of using neutron diffraction in quantitative analysis of residual austenite in steels is investigated. According to the obtained results, some properties of neutron diffraction by two-phase structures remain size-independent, which makes it possible to use large composite standards. It is shown that this approach ensures admissible accuracy without using a priori coefficients.
