Hot-work tool steels are mainly used for hot-forging dies, casting dies and extruding tools where high strength is required at high service temperatures. As a consequence, thermal fatigue and softening play the most important role with regard to tool life, and they are strongly influenced by coarsening of the nanometer-sized secondary hardening carbides. The microstructural response to three different overaging treatments in the temperature range of 650–680 °C has been analyzed regarding precipitate types, particle size distributions and corresponding volume fractions. The combination of the different methods used in this study enables a very precise determination of these parameters. This allows for a profound discussion on the evolution of particles occurring in the analyzed samples.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2007.03.014} (DOI).
