Effects of V-Ti-Zr-Re containing modification powders on the mechanical properties and microstructure of low alloy steel castings by conventional normalizing, hardening and tempering processes and normalizing-free heat treatment were investigated. The results showed that for the as-modified casting, martensite and carbides were the main phases after direct quenching and low-temperature tempering but skipping normalizing. The mechanical properties were almost the same or even higher in impact toughness than the same material but bearing also normalizing treatment. Both samples modified by alloy powders, whether normalizing treated or not, possessed superior mechanical properties to those castings without being modified. The modification technique can be applied in low alloy steel production to eliminate the time and energy consuming normalization process, so that the cheap, energy saving and environment friendly materials are thus expected.

The occurrence of abnormal grain growth (AGG) of austenite during annealing is a serious problem in steels with carbide and/or nitride particles, which should be avoided from a viewpoint of mechanical properties. The effects of cold deformation prior to annealing on the occurrence of AGG have been investigated. It was found that the temperature range of the occurrence of AGG is shifted toward a low temperature region by cold deformation, and that the shift increases with the increase of the reduction ratio. The lowered AGG occurrence temperature is attributed to the fine and near-equilibrium AlN particles that are precipitated in the cold-deformed steel, which is readily dissolved during annealing. In contrast, coarse and non-equilibrium AlN particles precipitated in the undeformed steel, which is resistant to dissolution during annealing.
