It was found that the Ti(C,N) particles in hot-strip coarsened with increasing coiling temperature, whereas after cold-rolling and annealing, the size difference of Ti(C,N) particles was lessened. The hot-strip coiling temperature has a significant impact on the recrystallized texture in the subsequent cold-rolled and annealed sheet. Hot-strip using high temperature(700 ℃) coiling leads to strong {111} recrystallized texture in annealed sheet, with peak intensity 9.2. On the contrary, in annealed sheets using hot-strip coiling at 650 ℃, their {111} recrystallized textures were weaker, which was also reflected in their rmvalues. Even though the hydrogen diffusion coefficient is slightly lower(7.76×10^(-5) mm^2/s) in annealed sheet using low temperature coiling(600 ℃), appropriately higher coiling temperature is more suitable for DC06 EK enamel steel combining both good drawability and fish-scale resistance.展开更多

The microstructure and mechanical properties before and after enameling were contrastively investigated,and the precipitates in the samples were analyzed using transmission electron microscope and energy dispersive spectrometer. The results show the ferrite grain size of the steel plate after high-temperature enamel firing to be fine,with a large number of TiC and Ti;C;S;precipitates dispersed throughout the ferrite matrix. After two rounds of enamel firing at a temperature range of 800-890 ℃,its yield strength can still reach342 MPa. The results of a hydrogen permeation test show that the hydrogen storage properties of the steel plate are much better than those of ordinary structural carbon steel. A better bubble structure in the enamel layer can be obtained by this steel plate,with no fish-scale defects on the enameled steel-plate surface.展开更多

However, its low yield stress greatly limits its application. This study aims to improve the yield stress of cold-rolled enameling steel under the premise of meeting formability and enameling properties by strengthening the ferrite matrix via solid strengthening of Mn. The grain size of ferrite before and after enameling,mechanical properties of annealed steel, and precipitation behavior of second-phase precipitates are obtained through studying the microstructure and properties of enameling steel at different stages. The microstructure of the steel investigated at room temperature is found to contain equiaxial ferrite and bunchy cementite particles;the ferrite grains have grown to some extent after enameling. The fine dispersed TiC particles and cementite particles contained in the annealed steel are the main factors improving the hydrogen storage capability. Finally, the result of a falling-ball impact test shows that the steel has achieved excellent adherence.展开更多
