Popis: In the present study the effect of hot rolling process on the normal and inverse Portevin-Le Chatelier behavior was investigated. The hot rolling process was carried out at 950 °C, 1050 °C, and 1150 °C to capture the effect of thermomechanical process on elimination or postponing of dynamic strain aging phenomenon in Inconel 617 during subsequent deformation process. The tensile test was performed within the temperature range between 350 °C and 750 °C at a constant strain rate. The microstructure evaluations were carried out by optical microscope and scanning electron microscope. The serrated flow was observed in the stress-strain curves at specific temperatures. The type of serrations changed from type B to type C at the strain rate of 5 × 10−4 s−1 as the tensile test temperature was enhanced. The change of normal PLC effect to the inverse PLC effect was intensified when the hot rolling temperature was increased; Hence, the inverse PLC effect was observed at 750 °C in the sample which had rolled at 1150 °C. Whilst the serrated flow was not seen at 750 °C in the samples which had rolled at 950 °C and 1050 °C. The critical strain, for the initiation of the serrated flow was found to reduce with the increasing temperature of hot rolling from 950 °C to 1150 °C. After tensile test, the microstructural evaluations revealed the proven substantial role of precipitation of γ′ and the Cr-rich M23C6 carbides in pinning of the mobile dislocations, which led to the inverse PLC effect.
