"Effect of processing parameters on interphase precipitation and mechan" by Andrii Kostryzhev, Chris Killmore et al.
Abstract Novel steel microalloyed with 0.73 (Cr + V + Nb) has been subjected to thermomechanical processing (TMP) with varying parameters to simultaneously maximise the steel strength and ductility. Optical and electron microscopy studies coupled with uniaxial tensile testing were carried out to analyse the processing-microstructure-properties relationship. For the suggested steel composition, the simultaneously highest yield stress (960 MPa), ultimate tensile strength (1100 MPa), and elongation to failure (25%) were achieved following simulated coiling at 650 C and holding for 30 min. The va...
