Abstract
ABSTRACT Hot compression tests were carried out on a quench and partitioning steel in the temperature range of 850-1050 °C and strain rates of 10-3- 1 s-1. The single-peak flow curves were appeared at high strain rates and low temperatures and the multi-peaks at the opposite condition. It was found that the mechanism of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) changes by passing from 950 °C due to dynamic precipitation of carbide particles. The microstructural characterizations using optical microscopy and electron back scattered diffraction (EBSD) techniques revealed various mechanisms of DRX in different deformation conditions. EBSD results showed opposite variations of high and low angle grain boundaries with increasing deformation temperature and decreasing strain rate. By using the hyperbolic sine constitutive equation, the value of apparent activation energy at the typical strain of 0.5 was determined as 297.67 kJ/mol.
