A new type of gradient boron alloyed composite material, containing boron alloyed core layers and stainless steel coatings around the core, were designed and prepared by composite casting and hot rolling. The evolution of microstructures, phases and precipitations, as well as their influence on hot rolling process and performance are investigated. A mixture of austenitic matrix and uniformly distributed borides are obtained in the hot rolled stainless steel with 2-2.5 % boron, while massive borides are in the length of 80-120 μm together with micro gaps at the interface between the borides, and the matrix is remained after hot rolling for the core layers with higher boron contents. Hot deformation would be hindered since more precipitations of these orthorhombic or tetragonal phases occur with an increase of the boron concentration in the core layers.

In hot rolling process of 2205 duplex stainless steel, it was found that bright line defects are mainly located at where is about distance of 200 mm from two sides of hot rolled plate. The forming reason of bright line defects is studied by means of metallographic microscope, scanning electron microscope (SEM) combined with energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). It is concluded that the formation of bright line defects has associated with sticking and that the temperature reduction on the edge of hot rolling plate causes a high percentage of austenite phase which is network structure. In order to prevent or avoid the happening of the sticking phenomenon, it is necessary to uniformly distribute the oxide on the strip surface by controlled rolling process.

System analysis is used to state links between input and output parameters of any technical system taking into consideration flows of material, energy, and information. This approach makes it possible to find effective ways for improvement of technical system parameters. The paper presents results of system analysis application for multioperational technological process steel sheet of hot rolling. Structural scheme of metal sheet hot rolling process is presented based on principles of system analysis. Hot rolling technological operations such as workpiece heating, hot rolling, cooling, and coiling are presented as subsystems. Due to the obtained schemes metal sheet parameters are stated which have to be controlled during each technological operation of hot rolling technological process. The obtained results can be used as the basics for mathematical modeling of steel sheet hot rolling operation in order to get the final product with the required set of properties.

Under the current conditions, the consumption of special purpose alloys or steels is growing. This is due to the development of the import substitution program. It should be noted, that such materials possess specific deformation behavior, which requires providing particular conditions of a hot rolling process. One of the characteristics of the deformation behavior is the narrow thermal plastic range. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a hot rolling in several stages, which include interchange of heating and rolling processes. For the purpose to resolve the issue, the experience of the multilayer hot rolling of plates has been investigated where all advantages of this way of a hot rolling process were used. Based on the method of the multilayer hot rolling, the pack rolling has been developed which gives the possibility of production of hot-rolled plates from special purpose alloys or steels.

High boron alloyed stainless steel(HBASS) with different Ti content were fabricated by vacuum induction furnace and their microstructure and boride phase were analyzed. The boride phase of HBASS do not contain Ti element is mainly (Fe,Cr)2B phase with slender rod-shape. After adding Ti into steel, because Ti and B preferentially combines into TiB2 phase with petals or small block shape which can stop the formation of hard and brittle (Fe,Cr)2B, so the number of (Fe,Cr)2B phase is reduced. And after adding Ti, many crisscross cracks appeared in internal large (Fe,Cr)2B phase, which will be effective to break into small pieces of boride to improve steel plasticity and shielding thermal neutron performance during hot rolling process.

AbstractTo investigate the mechanism by which voids form around hard inclusions, the deformations of a plastic slab with hard and soft inclusions that form inside it during the hot rolling process have been simulated with a finite element method. By comparing plastic strain distributions, the relative displacements of contact surfaces, and the deformations between hard and soft inclusions have preceded analysis of the formation mechanism of these voids. The variations of strain measurements between the matrix and hard inclusions cause relative displacement of their contact surfaces. Therefore, voids occur at the front and rear of the hard inclusions. Trials on the slab deformations using a titanium ball instead of the soft inclusion inside the slab during the hot rolling process are conducted. The simulated shapes of the soft inclusions with different reductions mostly agree with the experimental results.

The objective of the study was to determine the feasibility of plastic forming by hot rolling of the AA2519 aluminium alloy sheets and cladding these sheets with a layer of the EN AW-1050A alloy. Numerous hot-rolling tests were carried out on the slab ingots to define the parameters of the AA2519 alloy rolling process. It has been established that rolling of the AA2519 alloy should be carried out in the temperature range of 400-440°C. Depending on the required final thickness of the sheet metal, appropriate thickness of the EN AW-1050A alloy sheet, used as a cladding layer, was selected. As a next step, structure and mechanical properties of the resulting AA2519 alloy sheets clad with EN AW-1050A alloy was examined. The thickness of the coating layer was established at 0,3÷0,5mm. Studies covered alloy grain size and the core alloy-cladding material bond strength.

Steel products made of ferritic steel can show some defects, such as jagged edges, following the hot rolling process. Aiming to identify the origin of this type of defect in order to help their reduction, an in-depth study has been carried out considering the hot rolling conditions of flat bars made of EN 1.4512 steel. A wide number of references to austenitic stainless steel can be found in literature: almost all the semi-empirical models describing the microstructural evolution during hot deformation refer to austenitic stainless steel. In this work, a comprehensive model for recrystallization and grain growth of the ferritic stainless steel grade EN 1.4512 is proposed, enriching the literature and works regarding ferritic stainless steels. Thermomechanical and metallurgical models have been implemented. The microstructural evolution and the damage of the material were calculated through the coupling of metallurgical and damage models. In the thermomechanical simulations of the roughing passes, three granulometry levels (PFGS) and three heating furnace temperatures were considered. The ferritic grain evolution metallurgical model was obtained by introducing apposite equations. The results highlight that the defect could be produced by process conditions that spark abnormal heating and consequently uncontrolled growth of the grains. The work-hardened grains undergo elongation during hot deformation without recrystallizing. Those grains “squeeze” the surrounding recrystallized grains towards the edges. Thus, on the edges occurs a series of cracks that macroscopically manifest themselves as jagged edges.

Abstract The production of steel products involves a series of manufacturing processes. The material Thermo-Mechanical Processing (TMP) history at each process affects the final properties and performances of the product. Experiments and plant trials to predict these properties and performance of steel products are expensive and time consuming. This has resulted in the need for computational design methods and tools that support a human designer in realizing such complex systems involving the material, product and manufacturing processes from a simulation-based design perspective. In this paper, we present a Goal-oriented Inverse Design method to achieve the integrated design exploration of materials, products and manufacturing processes. The key functionality offered is the capability to carry out a microstructure-mediated design satisficing specific processing requirements and performance goals of the product. Given models to establish the information flow chain, a designer can use the method for the decision-based design exploration of material microstructure and processing paths to realize products in a manufacturing process chain. The efficacy of the method is tested using an industry-inspired hot rolling problem to inversely design the thermo-mechanical processing of a steel rod. The focus here is the method and associated design constructs which are generic and support the formulation and decision-based design of similar problems involving materials, products and associated manufacturing processes.

In this study, the effect of mechanical soft reduction on carbon segregation in the continuous casting of 300 × 400 mm 42CrMo alloy structural steel blooms was comparatively investigated by adjusting the casting speed, which was systematically optimized through numerical simulation. When the casting speed is 0.60 m · min−1, during the soft reduction process, the central solidification structure of the bloom becomes dense, and carbon segregation is improved. Moreover, the distribution of carbon in the samples before and after rolling was analyzed. Combined with the soft reduction process, the uniformity of carbon across the cross section of the bloom /bar distinctly improved for casting speeds of 0.50 m · min−1, 0.55 m · min−1 and 0.60 m · min−1, this was predominantly reflected in the core areas. The effective segregation length proportion of the bloom and rolled bar is approximately 40%. This phenomenon fully verifies the heredity characteristics of the elements in the rolling process.
