The effect of Cr, Co, and Ni additions on the secondary hardening behavior in Fe-C-Mo steels was systematically analyzed in terms of their effect on M2C carbide formation and reported elsewhere in this journal.t1] In this study, the fracture behavior has been analyzed for the same alloy systems. The chemical compositions of the alloys used in this study are presented in Table I. After austenitizing at 1200 ~ for 1 hour, standard Charpy V-Notch impact specimens were aged in the range of 400 ~ to 650 ~ for 1 hour. The variations in the absolute hardness values and relative values with respect to the hardness in as-quenched condition for 4Mo, 2Mo-2.5Cr, 2Mo-2.5Cr-14Co, and 1.5Mo3Cr-14Co-10Ni steels are shown in Figure 1. The effect of alloying additions on secondary hardening is summarized in the following paragraph.['l The strong secondary hardening peak in the 4Mo steel at 600 ~ is due to the formation of fine M2C carbides following the dissolution of M3C cementite. The Cr addi-
