The new steel aims to meet the demand of high strength, high toughness and high plasticity for building facilities. The effects of quenching process on microstructure and mechanical properties of tested steel were investigated. The results showed that prior austenite grain size, phase type and precipitation behavior of （ Nb, Ti） （ C, N） play important roles in mechanical properties of the steel. Through modified appropriately, the model of austenite grain growth during heating and holding is d^5.7778 = 5. 6478^5.7778 ＋ 7.04 × 10^22t^1.6136 exp（- 427. 15 ×10^3 /（RT））. The grain growth activation energy is Qg = 427. 15 kJ. During quenching, the microscopic structures are mainly martensite and lath bainite which contains lots of lath substructure and dislocations. The content of phases, fine and coarsening （ Nb, Ti ） （ C, N ） precipitated changes during different quenching temperatures and holding time. Finally compared with the hardness value, the best quenching process can be obtained that heating temperature and holding time are 900 ℃ and 50 mins, respectively.展开更多

Three types of precipitates were found in the fractured specimens. One was the block-shaped coarse TiN particles precipitated at high temperature. Another type was the fine dynamic precipitation products precipitated at 950～900℃ which caused remarkable ductility reduction of the steel. The third type was the co-existed precipitates formed by fine Nb precipitates nucleating and growing on TiN paricles. Compared with Nb-containing steel which contains no Ti, there was no ductility drop for Nb- and Ti-containing steel at temperature between 850℃ and Ar3 and, the γ→α transformation inside the grain matrixes proceeded faster, which both improved the ductility of the steel in the low ductility temperature Region Ⅲ.展开更多
