Abstract
The present work uses transmission electron microscopy to study the formation of the microstructure of a 12% chromium tempered martensite ferritic steel. The main emphasis placed on the difference between a martensitic material state and the tempered material state. Tempering results in a decrease of dislocation density and in an increase of the width of elongated ferritic micro grains (as opposed to martensitic laths). Adjacent micro grains in the tempered material state are separated by high and low angle boundaries. High angle boundaries are of {110}- type.
