Abstract
The continuous cooling phase transformation behavior of niobium microalloyed steel was studied by Thermecmastor-Z thermomechanical simulator; the continuous cooling transformation curves (CCT) were established. The change of microstructure under different cooling rates was observed, and the influence of deformation in austenite non-recrystallization region on transformation was discussed. Based on these work, it was possible to know that the phase transformation is retarded and the ferritic grain is refined dramatically as the cooling rate increasing. The deformation in austenite non-recrystallization region caused deformation stored-energy, which improved the grain refinement of transformation to some extent, but not significant.
