304 stainless steels were prepared by aluminothermic reaction method; first steels are annealed at 1000°C and then rolled at 700°C for different deformation. The microstructures evolution and mechanical properties were distinguished in details. It was found that the steel contains nanocrystalline/submicrocrystalline/microcrystalline austenite and submicrocrystalline ferrite. After rolling to a thickness reduction of 30%, 50%, and 70%, the mechanical properties of the rolled steels were substantially increased, as the deformation increased from 30% to 50%, the tensile strength increased from 650 to 1110 MPa, the yield strength increased from 400 to 665 MPa, and the elongation increased from 8% to 8.5%.

The present study investigated the effect of cold rolling reduction on microstructure and mechanical properties of a 204C2 Cr–Mn austenitic stainless steel which contained 16%Cr, 2%Ni, 9%Mn and 0.083 %C). The 204C2 austenitic stainless steels were cold rolled at multifarious thickness reductions of 10%, 20%, 30%,40% and 50%, which were compared with the solution-treated one. Microstructure of them was investigated by means of optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction technique and scanning electron microscopy. For mechanical properties investigations, hardness and tensile tests were carried out. Results shows that the cold rolling reduction induced the martensitic transformation (γ→α ́) in the structure of the austenitic stainless steel. With the increase of the rolling reduction, the amount of strain-induced martensite increased gradually. Hardness, ultimate tensile strength and yield strength increased with the incremental rolling reduction in 204C2 stainless steels, while the elongation decreased. At the thickness reduction of 50%, the specimen obtained best strength and hardness. Hardness of 204C2 stain steel reached 679HV. Ultimate tensile strength reached 1721 MPa. Yield strength reached 1496 MPa.

The test of austenitic stainless steel specimens with strain control mode of pre-strain was carried out. The range of pre-strain is 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9% and 10% on austenitic stainless steel specimens, then tensile testing of these samples was done and their mechanical properties after pre-strain were gotten. The results show that the pre-strain has little effect on tensile strength, and enhances the yield strength more obviously. According to the experimental data, we get a relational expression of S30408 between the value of yield strength and pre-strain. We can obtain several expressions about different kinds of austenitic stainless steel by this way. It is convenient for designers to get the yield strength of austenitic stainless steel after pre-strain by the value of pre-strain and the above expression.

Warm rolling is one of the thermomechanical method has several advantages such as produces high mechanical properties, but does not decrease % elongation and toughness value because partial recrystallization phenomenon that produces micron-sized new grain. This paper reports the results of an investigation carried out on the effects of holding time annealing to mechanical properties Cu-Zn 70/30 alloy. These alloy after homogenization process and quenched in the air then heated to temperature of 300°C, later the heated copper samples are warm rolled at 25%, 30%, and 35% reduction, after that heated at temperature 300°C and held during 120 minutes. Then sample is experienced rewarm rolling with reduction 25%, 30%, and 35%. The results obtained showed that the ultimate tensile strength and yield strength are higher proportional with the increasing of % reduction, their values are 501,1 MPa; 599,3 MPa; later decrease to 546, 5 MPa and to yield strength are 441,8 MPa; 466,1 MPa; then decrease to 458,6 MPa. Moreover hardness value increase proportional with % reduction such as 154 HV; 162 HV; after that decrease to 160 HV While, % elongation decreases inversely proportional with % reduction namely 12,4%; 8,2%; later increase to 11,2 %. It is caused of the partial recrystallization phenomenon as evidenced by the presence micron-sized.AbstrakWarm rolling merupakan salah satu metode termomekanik yang mempunyai beberapa keuntungan yaitu salah satunya menghasilkan sifat mekanik yang tinggi, namun tidak mengurunkan nilai keuletan karena adanya fenomena rekristalisasi parsial yang menghasilkan butiran baru berbentuk micron. Paper ini menjelaskan tentang hasil penelitian berupa pengaruh persentase reduksi terhadap sifat mekanis paduan Cu-Zn 70/30. Paduan Cu-Zn 70/30 setelah dilakukan proses homogenisasi dan didinginkan di udara lalu dipanaskan ke suhu 300°C, kemudian masing-masing dilakukan warm rolling dengan persentase reduksi sebesar 25%, 30%, dan 35% kemudian ditahan di suhu 300°C dalam waktu 120 menit. Selanjutnya sampel dilakukan rewarm rolling dengan persentase reduksi sebesar 25%, 30%, dan 35%. Hasil penelitian yang dilakukan antara lain nilai kekuatan tarik (UTS dan YS) yang semakin tinggi sebanding dengan peningkatan % reduksi warm rolling yaitu masing-masing untuk nilai UTS sebesar 501,1 MPa; 599,3 MPa; lalu menurun menjadi 546,5 MPa serta untuk nilai kekuatan luluh sebesar 441,8 MPa; 466,1 MPa; lalu menurun menjadi 458,6 MPa. Selain itu, nilai kekerasan meningkat sebanding dengan peningkatan % reduksi warm rolling masing-masing sebesar 154 HV; 162 HV; lalu menurun menjadi 160 HV. Sedangkan persentase elongasi semakin menurun berbanding terbalik dengan peningkatan % reduksi masing-masing sebesar 12,4%; 8,2%; lalu meningkat menjadi 11,2%. Hal tersebut disebabkan karena adanya fenomena rekristalisasi parsial yang dibuktikan dengan kehadiran butir kecil berukuran mikron.Keywords : Cu-Zn 70/30 alloy, warm rolling, anneal, % reduction, mechanical properties

In this work, a Fe23Mn0.3C1Al high manganese twinning-induced plasticity (TWIP) steel is subjected to varying warm rolling procedures in order to increase the yield strength and maintain a notable ductility. A comprehensive material characterization allows for the understanding of the activated deformation mechanisms and their impact on the resulting microstructure, texture, and mechanical properties. The results show a significant enhancement of the yield strength compared to a fully recrystallized Fe23Mn0.3C1Al steel. This behavior is mainly dominated by the change of the active deformation mechanisms during rolling. Deformation twinning is very pronounced at lower temperatures, whereas this mechanism is suppressed at 500 °C and a thickness reduction of up to 50%. The mechanical properties can be tailored by adjusting rolling temperature and thickness reduction to desired applications.

Abstract: In this study, waterjet peening (WJP) treatments under different water pressures were utilized to improve the mechanical properties of 304 stainless steel. The surface morphologies, microstructures, phases, and mechanical properties under different pressures in the WJP process were systematically investigated. The results show that WJP treatments successfully introduced a hardening layer and residual compressive stress. The optimal hardening layer, hardness, residual compressive stress, tensile strength, and ductility were all recorded at the pressure of 200 MPa. The improved hardness, tensile strength, and ductility of 304 stainless steel treated with WJP treatments at the pressure of 200 MPa can be attributed to the hardening layer with much apparent grain refinement effect, phase transformation, smaller surface roughness, and a specific residual compressive stress, as compared with the WJP treatments under other water pressures.

The effect of rolling parameters on microstructure and tensile properties of nanocrystalline/microcrystalline 304 stainless steel (SS) casted by the aluminothermic reaction was investigated in this work. It was found that majority of the nanocrystalline austenite of the 304 SS rolled at 700[Formula: see text]C and 900[Formula: see text]C grew up and transformed to sub-microcrystalline. While the nanocrystalline/microcrystalline structure still retained rolled at 900[Formula: see text]C with 40% deformation followed 600[Formula: see text]C with 70% thickness reduction, and microcrystalline austenite grains distributed evenly. The strength and ductility of the various rolled 304 SS were improved compared with the as-casted 304 SS steel. The steel rolled at 900[Formula: see text]C with 80% deformation exhibited a uniform elongation as large as 31.3%, which is almost the same ductility level of counterpart coarse-grained steel. The rolled steel at 700[Formula: see text]C with 80% deformation achieved the maximum tensile strength but the smallest elongation. The sample, two-step rolled at 900[Formula: see text]C with 40% thickness reduction and then 600[Formula: see text]C with 70% thickness reduction, yielded the satisfactory combination of strength and ductility. The yield strength and elongation were appropriate 767 MPa and 22.8%, respectively, which resulted from the optimized nanocrystalline/microcrystalline structure and distribution.

Product with low cost, lightweight and enhanced mechanical properties were the main reasons welding dissimilar materials thrived by most of the industries. The laser welding technique which has high-energy density beam was found suitable of carrying this task. This paper attempts to investigate welding of AISI 304 stainless steel to AISI 1008 steel through Nd:YAG pulse laser method. The main objective of this study was to find out the weldability of these materials and investigate the mechanical properties of the welded butt joints. Peak power, pulse duration and weld speed combinations were carefully selected with the aims of producing weld with a good tensile strength, minimum heat affected zone (HAZ) and acceptable welding profile. Response surface methodology (RSM) approach was adopted as statistical design technique for tensile strength optimization. Statistical based mathematical model was developed to describe effects of each process parameters on the weld tensile strength and for response prediction within the parameter ranges. The microstructure of the weld and heat affected zones were observed via optical microscope. The results indicate the developed model can predict the response within ±9% of error from the actual values.

Abstract AISI 1045 and 304 stainless steel are widely used in automotive and industrial fields However, both of these steels have their own advantages and disadvantages. AISI 1045 is not resistant to corrosion but has good wear resistance and low price. Meanwhile, the 304 stainless steel provides good corrosion resistance and mechanical properties but is costly. Their combination is able to provide a good property and reduce the costs. Thus, in order to combine these two metals, shield metal arc welding is carried out using welding groove and electrode variation. The groove variations used were double bevel, V, and double V-groove, additionally, the electrode variations used were E6013 and E7016. Then, the welding results were characterized using the tensile strength and macrostructure analysis. The results revealed that the specimen using E7016 electrode for the double V-groove resulted in the highest tensile test results the value of 270.48 MPa yield strength, 411.49 MPa tensile strength, and 19.81% elongation. The macrostructure analysis showed that the specimens using E7016 electrode gave a narrow HAZ that led to higher mechanical properties.

The microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of medium carbon martensitic steel during the warm rolling and annealing process were studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM), electron back scattering diffraction (EBSD), and electronic universal testing machine. The results showed that the microstructure of ferrite matrix with mass dispersive cementite particles was obtained by decomposition of martensitic in medium-carbon martensitic steel after warm rolling. The grain size of ferrite was ~ 0.53 μm, the yield strength and tensile strength were 951 MPa and 968 MPa, respectively, and the total elongation rate was 11.5% after warm rolling at 600 °C. Additionally, after the next 4 h of annealing, the grain size of ferrite and particle size of cementite increased to ~1.35 μm and ~360 nm and the yield strength and tensile strength decreased to 600 MPa and 645 MPa, respectively, with a total elongation increases of 20.9%. The strength of the material increased with increasing strain rate in tension, and the yield-to-tensile strength ratio increased from 0.92 to 0.94 and maintained good plasticity.
