The results indicated that the steel exhibited high ultimate tensile strength（ 1 079MPa）,sufficient ductility（ 28%） and the highest product of strength and ductility（ 30 212 MPa·%） heat treated after intercritical annealing at 800℃ for 3 min and bainitic annealing at 430 ℃ for 5 min. In addition,the change of volume fraction of retained austenite（ VF-RA） versus tensile strain was measured using in-situ analysis by X-ray stress apparatus and micro-electronic universal testing machine. It was concluded that a-value could be used to evaluate the stability of retained austenite（ S-RA） in the investigated Ti-V micro-alloyed TRIP steel. The smaller a-value indicated the higher stability of retained austenite（ S-RA） and the higher mechanical properties of Ti-V micro-alloyed TRIP steel.展开更多
