Abstract

AbstractThe form of existance of Nb and N in medium manganese steel and influence of Nb and N on microstuctures and work‐hardening properties have been researched The mechanism of work hardening of austenitic Mn steel has been conducted Experimental results show that when trace Nb and N are added into the steel, they can form carbide, nitride of Nb(Nbc, NbN, Nb(N · C)), and become heterogeneous nuclei of r‐Fe. When addition contents of Nb and N are from 0.15% to 0.25% and 0.03% to 0.05% respectively, grain size can be 6–7 Grade Through ageing treatment, grained and dispersed secondary phases were obtained Nb and N can decrease the stacking faults energy. Under no‐severe impact loading conditions, the structures of Mn 7 is high density dislocation, tangled dislocation, stacking fault and strain‐induced martensite. So that the work hardening of Mn 7 is the combined results of dislocation strengthening and the formation of straininduced martensite.
