Abstract
The process of “controlled rolling+relaxation+ultra fast cooling (UFO)” for high strength constructional steel with low yield ratio was presented. Microstructure and corresponding relationship with low yield ratio were investigated. The results showed that the constructional steels with multiphase microstructure of bainitie ferrite, martensite-austenite (M-A) and lath bainite were obtained through the creative process. The grain size decreased with the decrease in finish rolling temperature, which enhanced the strength by the grain refinement strengthening. The proper relaxation treatment promoted the bainitie ferrite lath width and the formation of blocky M-A constituent. In addition, both the tensile and yield strength increased with the decrease in finish rolling temperature and UFC final temperature, but the yield strength increased more significantly than tensile strength, which caused the increase in yield ratio. By using the process of “controlled rollingh+relaxation+ultra fast cooling”, the excellent comprehensive mechanical properties of 780 MPa grade constructional steels of 12 — 40 mm in thickness were achieved.
