i have sample of 1045 steel,through which i have to obtain a bainitic structure.my question is how could i able to do this without using salt bath?and what would be the soaking time for it after heating through the austenizing temperature?

without an alloying addition it would be difficult make it possible but i have to make out of it whether it be dual or multi phase.
metengr:
my sample thickness is 8.7mm i dont have sodium nitrate and nitride,could it be possible i would make it by isothermal annealing?

Lead melts around 325C, just above the Ms temperature. Holding it in the molten lead bath for 15 minutes should be adequate, after which you could air cool. With a sample of that size, you should be able to quench the sample to below 500C before it started to transform. I'd be surprised if you achieved 100% banite, but you should be able to come close; you might find you formed some ferrite. Of course, you have the problems and issues of dealing with molten lead (getting some salt would be easier, in my opinion).
I am curious, though, what are you trying to accomplish?
