This investigation explores the influence of the austenitisation heat treatment and thus, of the prior austenite grain size (PAGS), on the kinetics of the bainitic transformation, using as A case study two high-carbon, high-silicon, bainitic steels isothermally transformed (TIso = 250, 300, 350 °C), after being austenised at different temperatures (γTγ = 925–1125 °C). A methodology, based on the three defining dilatometric parameters extracted from the derivative of the relative change in length, was proposed to analyse the transformation kinetics. These parameters are related to the time to start bainitic transformation, the time lapse for most of the transformation to take place and the transformation rate at the end of the transformation. The results show that increasing the PAGS up to 70 µm leads to an increase in the bainite nucleation rate, this effect being more pronounced for the lowest TIso. However, the overall transformation kinetics seems to be weakly affected by the applied heat treatment (γTγ and TIso). In one of the steels, PAGS > 70 µm (γTγ > 1050 °C), which weakly affects the progress of the transformation, except for TIso = 250 °C, for which the enhancement of the autocatalytic effect could be the reason behind an acceleration of the overall transformation.

This review paper concerns the development of the chemical compositions and controlled processes of rolling and cooling steels to increase their mechanical properties and reduce weight and production costs. The paper analyzes the basic differences among high-strength steel (HSS), advanced high-strength steel (AHSS) and ultra-high-strength steel (UHSS) depending on differences in their final microstructural components, chemical composition, alloying elements and strengthening contributions to determine strength and mechanical properties. HSS is characterized by a final single-phase structure with reduced perlite content, while AHSS has a final structure of two-phase to multiphase. UHSS is characterized by a single-phase or multiphase structure. The yield strength of the steels have the following value intervals: HSS, 180–550 MPa; AHSS, 260–900 MPa; UHSS, 600–960 MPa. In addition to strength properties, the ductility of these steel grades is also an important parameter. AHSS steel has the best ductility, followed by HSS and UHSS. Within the HSS steel group, high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel represents a special subgroup characterized by the use of microalloying elements for special strength and plastic properties. An important parameter determining the strength properties of these steels is the grain-size diameter of the final structure, which depends on the processing conditions of the previous austenitic structure. The influence of reheating temperatures (TReh) and the holding time at the reheating temperature (tReh) of C–Mn–Nb–V HSLA steel was investigated in detail. Mathematical equations describing changes in the diameter of austenite grain size (dγ), depending on reheating temperature and holding time, were derived by the authors. The coordinates of the point where normal grain growth turned abnormal was determined. These coordinates for testing steel are the reheating conditions TReh = 1060 °C, tReh = 1800 s at the diameter of austenite grain size dγ = 100 μm.

In view of the special requirements of rails to ensure the safe and stable operation of Railways in China, the formation characteristics of austenite grains in high carbon rail are revealed through industrial exploration, the process of industrial rail heating and rolling is simulated, innovative experimental research methods such as different heating and heat treatment are carried out on the actual rails in the laboratory. Transfer characteristics of austenite grain size, microstructures and key properties of high carbon rail during the process are also revealed. The results show that the austenite grain size of industrial produced U75V rail is about 9.0 grade. When the holding temperature is increased from 800 C to 1300 C, the austenite grain size of high carbon rail steel decreases, the austenite grain are gradually coarsened, and the tensile strength increases slightly. The tensile strength is affected by the heating temperature. With the increase of heating temperature, the elongation and impact toughness of high carbon rail decrease. The heating temperature of high carbon rail combined with austenite grain size shows that the heating temperature has a great influence on austenite grain size, and has the most obvious influence on the toughness of high carbon rail.
