The tensile tests demonstrated that this steel exhibits a significant strain rate and cold rolling dependence of the tensile strength and ductility.With the increase of the strain rate from 10^-4s^-1to 1 s^-1, the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength increase and the uniform elongation and total elongation decrease. The analysis of the double logarithmic stress–strain curves showed that this steel exhibits a two-stage strain hardening behavior, which can be well examined and analyzed by using the Ludwigson equation. The strain hardening exponents at low and high strain regions（n2and n1） and the transition strain（εL） decrease with increasing strain rate and the increase of cold rolling RA. Based on the analysis results of the stress–strain curves, the transmission electron microscopy characterization of the microstructure and the scanning electron microscopy observation of the deformation surfaces, the significant strain rate and cold rolling dependence of the strength and ductility of this steel were discussed and connected with the variation in the work hardening and dislocation activity with strain rate and cold rolling.展开更多

Microstrueture was characterized by using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy （ SEM ） , transmission electron microscopy （TEM） and selected area electron diffraction （SAED）. Low temperature impact toughness was estimated by using Charpy V-notch impact samples selected from the upper part and the lower part at the same heterogeneous joint. Results show that the low temperature impact absorbed energies of weld metal are （202,180,165 J） of upper samples and （178,145,160 J） of lower samples, respectively. All of them increase compared to base metal. The embrittlement of HAZ does not occur. Weld metal primarily consists of refined carbide free bainite and a little granular bainite since laser hybrid welding owns the character of low heat input. Retained austenite constituent film ＂locates among the lath structure of bainitie ferrite. Refined bainitic ferrite lath and retained austenite constituent film provide better low temperature impact toughness compared to base metal.展开更多

The results indicated that fine FeTiP could precipitate at 650 ℃, and the number of those precipitates increased greatly with the increasing annealing temperature until 800 ℃. Furthermore, the nucleation of FeTiP was influenced by the precipitation of TiC and （Ti, Nb） C. The near absence of FeTiP and a large volume fraction of TiC and （Ti, Nb） C in matrix are envisaged to be primarily responsible for the sharp y-fiber texture. As the boundary pinning effect caused by FeTiP is weak and there are less interstitial C atoms in matrix. Thus, annealing at 800 ℃ leads to the highest intensity of y-fiber texture.展开更多

Some researched is currently being conducted on Q ＆ P steel, but Q ＆ P techniques and related mechanisms have been mostly research based on conventional transformation-induced plasticity （TRIP） steel. This study researches the effect of Mn on the properties of Q ＆P sheet steel. Two kinds of steel sheet with different levels of Mn content （1.46% Mn and 2.75% Mn） are investigated. After being fully annealed, the steel sheets were quenched to a temperature between Ms and Mr. Allocation treatment then caused the carbon to be partitioned into the remaining austenite.The microstructure and tensile properties were analyzed. The results show that the increment of Mn content can increase the stability of the steel and decrease the sensitivity of the quenching temperature （QT）. The results also indicate that increasing the level of Mn can effectively suppress the formation of bainite.展开更多
