The results show that typical microstructure containing ferrite, bainite, and retained austenite can be obtained when two-stage heat treatment process was utilized. When annealing temperature is 840 ℃ and austempering temperature is 400 ℃, the tensile strength is 542 MPa and the product of strength and elongation is 17,685 MPa%.
