The effects of coiling temperature (CT) on various hardening mechanisms and mechanical properties of Ti-V-Mo complex mi- croalloyed high-strength low-alloy steels were investigated. The results revealed that the steels are mainly strengthened by a combined effect of ferrite grain refinement hardening and precipitation hardening. The variation in simulated coiling temperature causes a significant difference in strength, which is mainly attributed to different precipitation hardening increment contributions. When the CT is 600 ℃, the experimental steel has the best mechanical properties: ultimate tensile strength (UTS) 1000 MPa, yield strength (YS) 955 MPa and elongation (EL) 17%. Moreover, about 82 wt% of the total precipitates are nano-sized carbide particles with diameter of 1-10 nm, which is randomly dispersed in the ferrite matrix. The nano-sized carbide particles led to a strong precipitation hardening increment up to 310 MPa.展开更多

The results showed that the mixed microstrueture containing ferrite, bainite and significant amounts of retained austenite can be obtained through three kinds of cooling patterns on the run-out table under the same hot rolling condition. Three kinds of cooling patterns possess different austenite transformation kinetics, which leads to variations in microconstituent characteristics. The yield strength increases, the tensile strength decreases and the total elongation tends to increase as the cooling patterns Ⅰ , Ⅱ and Ⅲ were applied respectively. The yield strength, the total elongation and the product of tensile strength and ductility reach the maximum values (547 MPa, 37. 2% and 28 384 MPa% respectively) for the steel plate processed by cooling pattern Ⅲ.展开更多
