Based on thermodynamics and kinetics, a new mathematical model was developed to calculate the CCT diagrams and the transformation kinetics in low carbon niobium steels, in which the effect of deformation on the degree of supercooling was taken into account. The undercooling caused by deformation is the major reason for the increase of the starting transition temperature during continuous cooling. The critical cooling rate of bainite formation is within 2--5 ℃s for the studied niobium steels and deformation is suitable for the occurrence of pearlite. The ferrite volume fraction increases with the increase of the austenite boundary area, and decreases with the increase of the cooling rate. The calculated CCT diagrams and the volume fraction of each phase are in good agreement with the measurements. 相似文献

A promising new method for steel design is based on controlling alloy chemistry and thermomechanical processing parameters to tailor microstructural evolution though an explicit understanding of the physical mechanisms governing microstructural change. Additions of Nb have been shown to have a large effect on microstructural processes in steels and this contribution summarizes recent work on elucidating the effect of Nb on the processes of recrystallization in ferrite and the kinetics of the austenite to ferrite phase transformation. In particular, emphasis is placed on distinguishing the effects of Nb in solution and Nb present as Nb‐containing precipitates. Nb in solution is shown to have a very strong effect on the recrystallization in ferrite and this can be quantified and understood in terms of the well‐known solute‐drag effect. The effect of NbC particles on the kinetics of the austenite to ferrite phase transformation is, however, less clear. Theoretical considerations would lead us to expect interphase boundary carbide precipitation to influence the transformation rate but novel decarburization experiments suggest this is not the case. This illustrates that although we are making progress on our understanding of the physical mechanisms governing change in Nb containing steels, there remains a number of important issues requiring further work. 相似文献

As thin slab direct rolling technologies are moving to the production of higher quality steel grades, chemical compositions based on Nb-Ti and Nb-Mo become a good option. However, with the use of multiple microalloying additions, the as-cast austenite conditioning becomes more complex. This paper analyzes some of the microstructural features that should be taken into account during the as-cast austenite conditioning in Nb-Ti and Nb-Mo microalloyed steel grades. In the case of Nb-Ti grades, it has been observed that the process parameters during solidification and post-solidification steps affect the austenite evolution during hot rolling. This is due to the differences in the size and volume fraction of TiN particles that can be formed. Fine TiN precipitates have been shown to be able to delay recrystallization kinetics. Moreover, the solute drag effect of Ti cannot be ignored in the case of hyperstoichiometric Ti/N ratios. It is observed that Nb-Ti grades tend to have lower non-recrystallization temperatures compared to Nb grades, which means that pancaking of the austenite is more difficult for these steels. The opposite is observed for the Nb-Mo grades, although in both cases the behavior is affected by the nominal content of Nb. 相似文献

Effect of Solute Drag and Precipitate Pinning on Austenite Grain Growth in Ti-Nb Microalloyed Steels
《钢铁研究学报(英文版)》2011,(Z1):383-387
A metallurgical model concerning the co-effect of the Nb solute drag and the complex carbonitride precipitates pinning is proposed to predict the recrystallization austenite grain growth of low carbon Nb-containing microalloyed steels.The analysis,both predicted and experimental,reveals the precipitate pinning plays a dominate role in suppressing the austenite grain growth with less Nb solute drag effect in high temperature region whereas the Nb solute drag predominates in relatively low temperature region.A factor p is suggested to assess the effectiveness of drag and pinning.The pinning and the drag are more effective in restraining grain growth as p>0 and p<0,respectively.A low carbon Nb microalloyed steel and a kind of Ti-modified low carbon Nb steel by Ti substituting for part of Nb are employed to validate the modeling results.The theoretical calculations show a good agreement with experimental results. 相似文献

The effect of austenite grain on the phase transformation of low-carbon microalloyed steel during continuous cooling is investigated by using Gleeble thermal simulator. The austenite grain size is changed by altering the holding period at the peak temperature. The findings demonstrate that for a given cooling rate, the longer the holding time, the microstructure becomes finer, and bainite begins to show up in the microstructure. The critical temperature of phase transformation and the diagram of phase transformation reaction rate during continuous cooling are determined by dilatometry. The Johnson–Mehl–Avrami–Kolmogorov equation is used to fit the transformation volume fraction, and the variation of kinetic parameters k and n with prior austenite grain size under nonisothermal condition is determined. The n value is trending downward as the prior austenite grain size increases, while the kinetic parameter k barely changes at all. The activation energy of phase transition is calculated by Kissinger method. The activation energy of fine austenite grain increases from 248.6 to 286.3 kJ mol−1 with the increase of austenite grain size, while the activation energy of coarse austenite grain decreases to 176.5 kJ mol−1 due to the competitive nucleation mechanism. 相似文献

The phase transformation behavior during continuous cooling of high-strength spring steels containing dif-ferent amounts of Cr was studied.Furthermore,the effects of combining Cr with V as well as austenite deformation on the transformation kinetics were investigated in the method of dilatometry and metallography hardness.The re-sults showed that,with the increase of Cr,the pearlite transformation field was enlarged,the ferrite transformation field was narrowed,and the entire phase field shifted to the right.With the addition of V,the start transformation temperature of undercooling austenite (Ar3 )was gradually increased,but the ferrite and pearlite transformation fields were not affected.Besides,the minimum critical cooling rate of martensitic transformation was also reduced.In addition,the dynamic continuous cooling transformation (CCT)curve moves to the top left compared with the static CCT curve.The transformed microstructures showed that the addition of V and the deformation not only refined the overall transformed microstructures but also reduced the lamellar spacing of pearlite.The alloying elements Cr and V promoted the Vickers hardness.However,the effect of Cr on the Vickers hardness of martensite was stronger and the influence of V on that of pearlite was stronger.Moreover,the Vickers hardness affected by the austenite deform-ation was more complex and strongly depended on the transformed microstructures. 相似文献

Low carbon Nb-Mo microalloyed steels show interesting synergies between the “micro”-alloying elements when high strength–high toughness properties are required. Strain accumulation in austenite is enhanced, and therefore grain sizes are refined in the final microstructures. The presence of Mo facilitates the presence of non-polygonal phases, and this constituent modification induces an increment in strength through a substructure formation as well as through an increase in the dislocation density. Regarding fine precipitation and its strengthening effect, the mean size of NbC is reduced in the presence of Mo and their fraction increased, thus enhancing their contribution to yield strength. In this paper, a detailed characterization of the microstructural features of a series of microalloyed steels is described using the electron-backscattered diffraction technique. Mean crystallographic unit sizes, a grain boundary misorientation analysis, and dislocation density measurements are performed. Transmission electron microscopy is carried out to analyze the chemical composition of the precipitates and to estimate their volume fraction. In this first part, the contribution of different strengthening mechanisms to yield strength is evaluated and the calculated value is compared to tensile test results for different coiling temperatures and compositions. 相似文献

The present paper is the final part of a two-part paper where the influence of coiling temperature on the final microstructure and mechanical properties of Nb-Mo microalloyed steels is described. More specifically, this second paper deals with the different mechanisms affecting impact toughness. A detailed microstructural characterization and the relations linking the microstructural parameters and the tensile properties have already been discussed in Part I. Using these results as a starting point, the present work takes a step forward and develops a methodology for consistently incorporating the effect of the microstructural heterogeneity into the existing relations that link the Charpy impact toughness to the microstructure. In conventional heat treatments or rolling schedules, the microstructure can be properly described by its mean attributes, and the ductile–brittle transition temperatures measured by Charpy tests can be properly predicted. However, when different microalloying elements are added and multiphase microstructures are formed, the influences of microstructural heterogeneity and secondary hard phases have to be included in a modified equation in order to accurately predict the DB transition temperature in Nb and Nb-Mo microalloyed steels. 相似文献

Compared with other dual-phase (DP) steels, initial microstructures of cold-rolled martensite-ferrite have scarcely been investigated, even though they represent a promising industrial alternative to conventional ferrite-pearlite cold-rolled microstructures. In this study, the influence of the heating rate (over the range of 1 to 10 K/s) on the development of microstructures in a microalloyed DP steel is investigated; this includes the tempering of martensite, precipitation of microalloying elements, recrystallization, and austenite formation. This study points out the influence of the degree of ferrite recrystallization prior to the austenite formation, as well as the importance of the cementite distribution. A low heating rate giving a high degree of recrystallization, leads to the formation of coarse austenite grains that are homogenously distributed in the ferrite matrix. However, a high heating rate leading to a low recrystallization degree, results in a banded-like structure with small austenite grains surrounded by large ferrite grains. A combined approach, involving relevant multiscale microstructural characterization and modeling to rationalize the effect of the coupled processes, highlights the role of the cold-worked initial microstructure, here a martensite-ferrite mixture: recrystallization and austenite formation commence in the former martensite islands before extending in the rest of the material. 相似文献

In this article, a detailed study was conducted to evaluate the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of microalloyed
steels processed by thermomechanical schedules incorporating cool deformation. Cool deformation was incorporated into a full
scale simulation of hot rolling, and the effect of prior austenite conditioning on the cool deformability of microalloyed
steels was investigated. As well, the effect of varying cooling rate, from the end of the finishing stage to the cool deformation
temperature, 673 K (400 °C), on mechanical properties and microstructural evolution was studied. Transmission electron microscopy
(TEM) analysis, in particular for Nb containing steels, was also conducted for the precipitation evaluation. Results show
that cool deformation greatly improves the strength of microalloyed steels. Of the several mechanisms identified, such as
work hardening, precipitation, grain refinement, and strain-induced transformation (SIT) of retained austenite, SIT was proposed,
for the first time in microalloyed steels, to be a significant factor for strengthening due to the deformation in ferrite.
Results also show that the effect of precipitation in ferrite for the Nb bearing steels is greatly overshadowed by SIT at
room temperature. 相似文献

Considering the effect of strain and chemical composition onprecipitation behavior, new models for the start and end time of Nb(C,N) precipitation in austenite under the conditions of different temperatures and strains have been investigated for Nb microalloyed steel. The value of n in the precipitation kinetic equation has been determined by using the available experimental data in literature, which indicated that n is a constant and independent of temperature. The values of the start and end time of the predicted precipitation are compared with the experimental values. Calculated results are in good agreement with the experimental results. Also, the evolution of austenite grains before ferrite transformation is simulated by taking the effect of precipitation into consideration. The measured austenite grain size is in good agreement with predicted one prior to ferrite transformation. 相似文献
