The low carbon steels were smelted with special oxide introduction technique and the HAZ properties has been studied with thermal simulation. The optical microscope, SEM and TEM were used to analyze the composition, size and distribution of the inclusions, and the mechanical properties after thermal simulation were also investigated. The influence of oxide inclusions on the austenite grain size was also studied. The results show that after the smelting the inclusion is complex, in the core is Ti oxides about 1-3 micron and around it is MnS. When the reheat temperature is below 1000, the size of austenite grain is the same for experimental steel and base steel. However, when the reheat temperature is over than 1100, the size of austenite grains in experimental steel is one third of that in base steels. After thermal simulation, with thet8/5increasing the toughness of HAZ decreased. The austnite grain size also increased. The microstructure is composed of intergranular ferrite and intragranular acicular ferrite. Therefore by introducing the fine oxide inclusion to the steel the austenite grain was refined and during the phase transformation the acicular ferrite formed at inclusions at first. These two factors are the main causes to improve the toughness of heat affected zone for steels produced by oxide metallurgy technique.

Austenite grain size is an important microstructure parameter when processing steels as it provides the initial condition for the austenite decomposition that determines the final microstructure and thus properties of the steel. In low-carbon steels it is frequently difficult if not impossible to quantify the austenite grain size using conventional metallographic techniques. Laser-ultrasonics provides an attractive alternative to quantify the grain size in-situ during thermo-mechanical processing of a steel sample. The attenuation of the laser generated ultrasound wave is a function of the grain size. The present paper gives an overview on the state-of-the-art of this novel measurement technique. Using isothermal and non-isothermal grain growth tests in low-carbon steels the advantages and limitations of laser-ultrasonic measurements will be demonstrated. Further, their application for deformed samples will be presented to quantify austenite grain sizes during and after recrystallization. The in-situ measurements provide significantly new insights into the austenite microstructure evolution during thermo-mechanical processing of low-carbon steels. The implications on expediting the development of improved process models will be discussed.
