Austenite Stabilization through Reverse （奥氏体稳定通过反向）.pdf

Activity Report Format 1 Austenite Stabilization through Reverse Transformation and Intercritical Annealing in Medium Manganese Steel Austenite stabilization through reverse transformation and intercritical annealing of 8 Mn steel was investigated. A minimum austenite grain size of 2 μm was achieved with 5 cycle reverse transformation. Austenite stabilization was obtained in a short period of intercritical annealing of lean alloy of 8 Mn steel having small grain size, which is obtained by 5 cycles of reverse transformation. Lean alloyed steel containing 5 to 8 wt. % followed by air cooling. manganese refers to as the third generation advanced high-strength steel (AHSS) comparing to the second generation AHSS which requires high manganese level for the stabilization of the fully austenitic structure. Third-generation AHSS developments are focusing on stabilizing retained austenite in an ultrafine ferritic matrix such as martensite or bainite. Although austenite stabilization is obtained through diffusion of interstitial carbon in most processing strategies, diffusion of substitutional elements such as manganese has also been shown to be effective. Significant austenite fractions resulting from prolonged holding (24hr, 1 week) at an intercritical temperature allowing for manganese partitioning from ferrite into austenite have been reported [1]. Austenite stability is increased not only with increasing austenite stabilization element such Fig. 1 Optical microstructures obtained by reverse as Mn and C, but with reducing grain size and transformation at 730°C.
