Abstract

The influence of the Mn content on the hot deformation properties of austenitic binary Fe-Mn alloys containing 1 to 20 mass pct Mn has been investigated for the first time. The influence of the Mn content on the constitutive equations was determined for the temperature range of 950 °C to 1250 °C and the strain rate range of 0.1 to 2 s−1. The activation energy for hot working increased with increasing Mn content, and dynamic recrystallization was observed for all the Fe-Mn binary alloys. The Mn was found to delay dynamic recrystallization. An increase in the Mn content resulted in an increase of both the peak stress σ p and the corresponding peak strain e p , thus revealing the pronounced influence of Mn on the hot deformation process.
