Abstract
Hot-working die steel usually withstands complex loading conditions and higher service temperatures, and its mechanical properties will inevitably deteriorate because of dynamic recovery, recrystallization, and plastic deformation of tempered martensite during service. A systematic study was carried out on a newly developed 4Cr5MoSiV1Ti hot working die steel to clarify the related microstructure evolution and deformation mechanism by stretching deformation at different temperatures ranging from room temperature to 640 °C. Results obtained show that the ultimate and yield tensile strength values at room temperature are about 1904 MPa and 1691 MPa, respectively. With increasing testing temperature, the strength decreases, the plasticity increases, and the fracture mode changes from brittle to ductile. All of these are closely related to a combined effect of tempered martensitic dynamic recovery, recrystallization, and secondary phase re-dissolution. Deformation mechanisms change from dislocation slip to rotation or sliding of ferrite with increasing stretching temperature.
