Original Abstract

The paper deals with the qualitative, quantitative, and phase analyses of particles that were found during the metallographic analysis of a cracked spring washer made of silicon spring steel 38Si7, with the aim of ruling out the client’s suspicion of possible initiation of graphitization in the course of the heat treatment. The problem is solved via metallographic analysis using light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy including EDS microanalysis of the chemical composition and EDS line analysis.
