Popis: | To further improve the strength and toughness, the advanced thermomechanical controlled processing has been applied in the development of an ultralow C and high Nb bearing steel. In the present investigation, the effects of processing parameters, consisting of the coiling and starting temperatures in non-recrystallisation region, on the final microstructure and mechanical properties of this steel have been studied by tensile, Charpy impact tests, optical microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Results indicate that the acicular ferrite dominated microstructure can be greatly refined in grain size with decreasing the starting temperature of finishing rolling. However, for high Nb steels, the too low starting temperature would promote the formation of high temperature transformation products and consequently make against the improvement of mechanical properties. In addition, the optimum temperature window of finishing rolling is found to be also related to alloying levels of austenite stabi... |
