Abstract The effect of the morphology and the martensite volume fraction on the microhardness, the tensile, the friction and the wear behavior of API X52 dual phase (DP) steel has been investigated. Three different heat treatments were used to develop dual phase steel with different morphologies and with different amounts of martensite: Intermediate Quenching Treatment/Water (IQ); Step Quenching Treatment (SQ) and direct quenching (DQ). Tribological tests are conducted on DP steels using a ball-on-disc configuration under normal load of 5 N and at a sliding speed of 4 cm/s were used to study the friction and wear behavior of treated samples. Results show that the ferrite–martensite morphology has a great influence on the mechanical properties of dual phase steel. The steel subjected to (IQ) treatment attain superior mechanical properties compared to the SQ and the DQ treatments. On the other hand, it is also found that the friction coefficient and the wear rate (volume loss) decrease when the hardness and the martensite volume fraction increase. The steel with fine fibrous martensite provide good wear resistance.

The deformation behaviour of martensite and its effect on tensile properties of a lowcarbon dual-phase (DP) steel were investigated. DP steel samples with different martensite contents and morphologies were produced after intercritical annealing at different temperatures using low and high heating rates. Two distinct martensite morphologies were obtained for low and high heating rates. The investigated steel showed the unusual results that the true fracture stress and strain were found to increase with the martensite volume fraction. The plastic deformation of martensite was considered to be responsible for these results. Experimentally, it was observed that the martensite in DP steels with greater than 25-30% martensite can deform plastically during tensile straining. Finally, the effect of tempering on the martensite plasticity was also evaluated. It was found that the tempering process and an increase in the martensite content have a similar effect on promoting martensite plasticity.

Heat Treated Steel

The effect of intercritical annealing heat treatment on mechanical and corrosion properties of fer-rite/martensite dual-phase steels with and without deformation by rolling has been investigated in this study. The X70 steel was rolled at intercritical temperatures (760 and 800 °C) with 30% amount of reductions followed by water quenching in order to produce dual-phase microstructure. The experimental results show that microstructures, mechanical and corrosion properties and were strongly affected by intercritical rolling conditions. It is established that the intercritical rolling provides a fibrous structure, and improves the mechanical and corrosion properties of X70 dual phase steel. It was found that after intercritical rolling (DQR), grain refinement and hardness improved significantly compared to intercritical heat-treated steel without rolling (DQ). A carefully conducted comparison of resistance corrosion of the representative specimens obtained after (DQ) and (DQR) treatments has been studied. (DQR) treatment shows better corrosion resistance than (DQ) treatment. The microstructure, mechanical and corrosion properties of the rolled X70 dual phase steel were investigated by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, hardness tests and electrochemical measurements.
