Abstract
ABSTRACT In this study, the effects of room temperature static strain aging period on the tensile properties of DP600 dual-phase steel were investigated. 6% and 12% of pre-strained DP600 steels were carried out static strain aging treatment at room temperature for up to 4 months. It was observed that with increasing both pre-strain rate and room temperature static aging period, the tensile strength values increased and ductility values decreased significantly. Also, dual-phase steels maintain the continuous yield behaviour which is general characteristic. The fracture surfaces exhibited a lower depth dimple type mode with increasing room temperature static strain aging period.
