Three-dimensional observations of proeutectoid ferrite formed at grain boundary in an Fe-0.09%C-1.48%Mn vanadium microalloyed alloy was revealed by techniques of serial sectioning along with computer-aided reconstruction. The ferrite allotriomorphs nucleated at grain boundary edges were approximately prolate ellipsoids. Not all the ferrite allotriomorphs formed at grain boundary faces were oblate ellipsoids. The growth kinetics of ferrite allotriomorphs nucleated at grain boundary edges was greater than that of ferrite allotriomorphs nucleated at grain boundary faces.

By fitting the calculated transformed fraction according to developed phase-transformation model to the experimental data obtained by differential dilatometry, the kinetic characteristics of the austenitization process in T91 steels have been investigated. According to the kinetic parameters fitted, we recognize that the nucleation and growth of austenite grain are mainly controlled by the diffusion of carbon in ferritic and austenite respectively. In addition, by increasing the diffusion active energy of carbon in austenite, carbides hinder the motion of interface and thus refine austenite grain.
