In this paper, in order to improve the microstructure uniformity of an ultra-high strength martensitic steel with a strength greater than 2500 MPa developed by multi-directional forging in the laboratory, a single-pass hot compression experiment with the strain rate of 0.01 to 1 s−1 and a temperature of 800 to 1150 °C was conducted. Based on the experimental data, the material parameters were determined, the constitutive model considering the influence of work hardening, the recrystallization softening on the dislocation density, and the recrystallized grain size model were established. After introducing the model into the finite element software DEFORM-3D, the thermal compression experiment was simulated, and the results were consistent with the experimental results. The rule for obtaining forging stock with a uniform and refinement microstructure was acquired by comparing the simulation and the experimental results, which are helpful to formulate an appropriate forging process.

Ultra High Strength Steel

A new method for evaluating the hydrogen embrittlement (HE) susceptibility of ultra high strength steel was studied in order to propose a new method for assessing the delayed fracture property. The material used was 1400MPa tempered martensitic steel with the chemical composition 0.40C-0.24Si-0.81Mn-1.03Cr-0.16Mo(mass%). The local approach originally used for evaluating the brittle fracture property was applied to HE susceptibility assessment after modifying the method to include the effect of hydrogen content. Critical HE data used in the modified local approach was obtained by a stepwise test in which alternating processes of stress increase and stress holding were repeated until the specimen fractured. The specimen used in the stepwise test was 10 mm in diameter and the stress concentration factor was 4.9. Assessment of HE susceptibility for specimens with other dimensions entailed the use of a critical hydrogen content for failure, Hc, representing the maximum hydrogen content among the unfractured specimens in the HE test with constant loading. Matters to be noted for obtaining the material parameters are discussed.

Abstract ALMAR 300 Alloy is a vacuum-melted ultra-high-strength steel. The annealed structure of this alloy is essentially a carbon-free, iron-nickel martensite (a relatively soft Rockwell C 28) that can be strengthened by cold working and elevated-temperature (900-950 F) age hardening to useful yield strengths as high as 300,000 psi. The unique properties of this alloy make it suitable for a wide range of section sizes. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: SA-349. Producer or source: Allegheny Ludlum Corporation.
