Dynamic Recrystallization and Recovery Behaviors in Austenite of a Novel Fe-1.93Mn-0.07Ni-1.96Cr-0.35Mo Ultrahigh Strength Steel

摘要

Due to the complex composition and high proportion of alloys in traditional ultrahigh strength steel, the dilemma caused by ultrahigh strength and low toughness in casting and forging processes requiring subsequent heat treatment can be mitigated with an efficient and economical rolling process. In this work, the effect of deformation parameters on dynamic recrystallization (DRX) and dynamic recovery (DRV) is discussed through stress-strain analysis, the DRV mathematical model is obtained, and then the dynamic recrystallization activation energy, Zener-Hollomon equation, and hot working equation are obtained. The critical strain of DRX detected by the P-J method is εc/εp - 0.631, which indicates that dynamic recrystallization of this novel steel is relatively easy to achieve by the rolling process. These models and conclusions have potential to be generalized for the formulation of process specification and process configuration without requiring extensive material testing.
