Abstract

In this paper, double deformation test was conducted in a MMS-300 thermomechanical simulator. Austenite static recrystallization kinetics of ultra-high strength dual phase steel was investigated. The results have shown that the softening fractions increase with holding time as a whole. Under deformation temperatures of 950°C, 1000°C and 1050°C, the softening fractions increase with the increase of the deformation temperature. And the softening curve appears relatively flat under deformation temperatures of 950°C. The austenite no-recrystallization temperature (Tnr) of ultra-high strength dual phase steel was between 900°C and 950°C. Double deformation test conditions which promoted Nb(CN) precipitation resulted in a decrease of a austenite recrystallization. Strain induced precipitation of Nb (CN) was the main reason why the softening curve appeared a plateau.
