The results show that the specimens with fast cooling after hot rolling exhibit very good mechanical properties, and the improvement of the mechanical properties can be attributed mainly to the ferrite-grain refinement. The mechanical properties increase with decreasing final cooling temperature within the range from 670 ℃ to 570 ℃ due to the finer interlamellar spacing of pearlite colony. The specimen with fast cooling after low temperature rolling shows the highest values of the mechanical properties. The effect of the ferrite grain size on the mechanical properties was greater than that of pearlite morphology in the present study. The mechanical properties of specimens by controlled rolling and cooling process without thermal treatment were greatly superior to that of the same specimens by the conventional rolling, and their tensile strength reached 490 MPa grade even in the case of low temperature rolling without controlled rolling. It might be expected to realize the substitution medium-carbon by low-carbon for 490 MPa grade cold forging steel with controlled rolling and cooling process.展开更多

However, the parameters of thermo-mechanical control process (TMCP) optimized by the Gleeble-3500 hot simulator could not satisfy performance requirements of the X100 pipeline steel. In order to improve the performance of this steel, the influence of finish cooling temperature (FCT) on the microstructure and property is studied in detail. It is found that, as this steel is thermo-mechanically treated by this set of parameters (the start heating temperature, finish rolling temperature (FRT), FCT and cooling rate of 1,180 ℃, 810 ℃, 350 ℃ and 35 ℃/s, respectively), the micro- structures are mainly composed of granular bainite (GB) and acicular ferrite (AF). The effective grain sizes are below 20 μm; the steel reaches the optimal balance between the strength and the toughness; the yield strength is 695 MPa; the tensile strength is 768 MPa; the elongation is 16.6 %; the impact energy is 262 J at room temperature. All indexes could meet the requirements of X100 pipeline steel.展开更多

Based on the recrystallization mechanism and carbide precipitation behavior of SUS 304 L austenitic stainless steel ,TMCP provides a powerful means to control the microstructure and precipitation of the hot rolled steel plate by the controlled rolling and accelerated cooling process. The dislocation density and grain size are the main factors in determining the strength of the stainless steel plates. Therefore ,it is necessary to strictly control the hot rolling parameters, including parameters such as the finish hot rolling temperature in the recrystallization temperature region and the total reduction in the non-recrystallization region. Furthermore, in order to avoid carbide precipitation and guarantee the intergranular corrosion resistance of TMCP SUS 304 L austenitic stainless steel, a critical cooling rate after rolling is determined.展开更多

The results show that, with the decrease of finishing rolling temperature, inter-lamellar spacing in- creases, the strength as well as hardness has a general increase, and secondary cementite is distributed uniformly but represents a remarkable decrease in size. Based on Hall-Petch type equation, an effective relationship of yield strength and pearlite structure parameters was established. The correlation coefficients between the measured and calculated strength were more than 0.95, which indicated a high reliability of the relationship. By analyzing the individual strength contributions of pearlite structures, yield strength was found to have a more great dependence on pearlite inter-lamellar spacing than colony size.展开更多
