Abstract: Microstructure and properties of low carbon corrosion-resistant die steel 0Cr13NiN under different heat treatment states were studied, and the mechanical properties and pitting resistance were compared with pre-hardened corrosion-resistant die steel 4Cr13. The results show that the annealed microstructure of the 0Cr13NiN steel is mainly composed of ferrite and carbides. Compared to pre-hardened 4Cr13 steel, pre-hardened 0Cr13NiN steel has better pitting resistance and toughness. The recommended pre-hardening heat treatment process for the 0Cr13NiN steel is quenching temperature of 980-1030 ℃, tempering temperature of 520-540 ℃, and tempering twice. The quenched microstructure is martensite +undissolved carbonitride + a small amount of retained austenite, and the tempered microstructure is tempered martensite +primary carbonitride + carbonitride.
