Austempering gives you bainite. Marquenching or martempering gives you martensite.Typically the retained austenite will decompose to martensite at typical tempering temperatures [ below Ms ] I wouldn' try to produce duplex structures....
Oops, austempering, I do get those two terms confused alot. So mixing martinsite and bainite isn't really something that'd be possible with a hope setup? Or is it that it's not as desirable as my armchair theory makes it seem like it would be?
