Popis: The coupling effects of ausforming and quenching process on isothermal bainite transformation behaviors, microstructures and mechanical properties of ultrafine bainitic steel have been analyzed. The synergism of ausforming and prior martensite transformation not only significantly accelerates subsequent bainite transformation, but also effectively refines bainite laths and greatly reduces the size of harmful blocky retained austenite, providing an improved transformation induced plasticity effect. Ultimate tensile strength of 2000 MPa and total elongation of 24% can be achieved in ultrafine bainitic steel by ausforming-quenching process and austempering at 300 °C for 1 h.
