<p>Heat treatment of 110G13L steel plays a decisive role in ensuring its <br /> performance characteristics. High-manganese austenitic steel acquires the required <br /> properties only after quenching, carried out in the range of 1050–1150°C. The main <br /> purpose of heat treatment is to dissolve carbide phases, stabilize the austenitic <br /> structure, and improve mechanical properties. However, subsequent heating leads <br /> to the release of carbide compounds, which reduces the wear resistance of the steel. <br /> X-ray diffraction studies have revealed the presence of an α-phase at temperatures <br /> above 600°C, which confirms the phase transformations occurring during cooling. <br /> The effect of manganese on the microstructure of the steel was insignificant, while an <br /> increase in carbon contributes to an increase in strength properties. Casting defects, <br /> such as porosity and cracks, harm the mechanical properties of steel, especially <br /> under dynamic loads. Optimization of the chemical composition and alloying with <br /> elements such as chromium and vanadium can increase impact toughness and wear <br /> resistance. The introduction of modifiers improves the alloy structure, but industrial <br /> implementation of these methods requires additional study. Heat treatment remains <br /> a key stage in the production of products from 110G13L but does not eliminate <br /> casting defects, which requires further improvement of technological processes.</p>
