ABSTRACTThe aim of the present research work is to investigate the influence of B addition on the phase transformation kinetics under continuous cooling conditions. In order to perform this study, the behavior of two low carbon advanced ultra-high strength steels (A-UHSS) is analyzed during dilatometry tests over the cooling rate range of 0.1-200°C/s. The start and finish points of the austenite transformation are identified from the dilatation curves and then the continuous cooling transformation (CCT) diagrams are constructed. These diagrams are verified by microstructural characterization and Vickers micro-hardness. In general, results revealed that for slower cooling rates (0.1-0.5 °C/s) the present phases are mainly ferritic-pearlitic (F+P) structures. By contrast, a mixture of bainitic-martensitic structures predominates at higher cooling rates (50-200°C/s). On the other hand, CCT diagrams show that B addition delays the decomposition kinetics of austenite to ferrite, thereby promoting the formation of bainitic-martensitic structures. In the case of B microalloyed steel, the CCT curve is displaced to the right, increasing the hardenability. These results are associated with the ability of B atoms to segregate towards austenitic grain boundaries, which reduce the preferential sites for nucleation and development of F+P structures.

Phase transformation of austenite continuous cooling process in low carbon high strength sheet steel has been researched by DIL805 thermal mechanical simulate. The Austenite continuous cooling transformation (CCT) diagram of steel has been determined by dilatometry and metallography. With the increase of cooling rate, ferritic transformation, perlitic transformation, bainite transformation and martensitic transformation have produced in the organization. Mathematical equations of phase transformation point-cooling rate and phase variable-cooling rate have been established and phase transformation model of high fit degree has been gained by regression calculation. The results show that calculated value and experimental value are nearly similar, so the phase transformation model is feasible.

Abstract MITTAL DI-FORM T700 and HF80Y100T are low-carbon steels with a manganese and silicon composition. Dual-phase (DP) steels are one of the important advanced high-strength steel (AHSS) products developed for the automotive industry. Their microstructure typically consists of a soft ferrite phase with dispersed islands of a hard martensite phase. The martensite phase is substantially stronger than the ferrite phase. The DI-FORM grades exhibit low yield-to-tensile strengths, and the numeric designation in the name corresponds to the tensile strength. This datasheet provides information on microstructure and tensile properties as well as deformation and fatigue. It also includes information on forming. Filing Code: SA-561. Producer or source: Mittal Steel USA Flat Products.
