Abstract The paper presents observations on the mechanical properties characterizing low-carbon steel subjected to deformation by the dual rolls equal channel extrusion (DRECE) method and annealed for 60 min in different temperature variants in the range of 450–700°C. The DRECE process was carried out up to seven passes at ambient temperature. The investigations carried out revealed that the strength of the steel strips increases corresponding to the rise in the number of DRECE passes applied. The yield strength (YS) after seven passes is >2.5 times higher compared to the material in the initial state (before the deformation process). However, the tensile ductility decreased significantly after the DRECE. In order to obtain favorable mechanical properties, the steel strips were subjected to annealing. Our study demonstrates that after being processed by the DRECE method, low-carbon steel can be subjected to low-temperature annealing to ensure that it is endowed with high strength, while maintaining the characteristic good ductility of the material. The results of the research were analyzed in the context of an investigation into the microstructure change, assessed by scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), induced in low-carbon steel subjected to the DRECE process and low-temperature annealing.

Low Temperature Toughness

The microstructure and mechanical properties of the low carbon steel plates containing Niobium content of 0.038%, 0.063% and 0.082% with intercritical quenching were studied by SEM, TEM, tensile and impact tests. The results showed that the intercritical quenching steel with high Niobium content can gain the fine microstructure , but also easily obtain the martensite, which made the strength very high but low temperature toughness very low, however, the steel with low Niobium content can not reach enough austenitization level, which caused both low temperature and yield ratio high relatively. So in the given rolling and heat treatment process, there was suitable Niobium content can contribute to obtain the optimal austenization level resulting in the good combination of strength, yield ratio, elongation and low temperature toughness after intercritical quenching in the low carbon steel.

Partitioning Time

A low carbon steel was treated by quenching and partitioning (Q&P) process, and a detailed characterization of the microstructural evolution and testing of mechanical properties were carried out. The resulted mechanical properties indicate that with the partitioning time increasing, the tensile strength decreases rapidly first and then remains stable, and the total elongation increases first then decreases. The investigated steel subjected to Q&P process exhibits excellent products of strength and elongation (17.8-20.6 GPa•%). The microstructural evolution of martensite matrix during the partitioning step was observed, and the morphology and content of retained austenite were characterized. The working hardening behavior of the samples was analyzed, and the retained austenite with higher carbon content contributes to the uniform elongation more effectively.
