Obtaining Ultrafine and Nanocrystalline Structure by Hot and Warm Deformation in Microalloyed Steel X90
In this paper we have investigated the possibility of increasing the complex mechanical properties of steel strength category X90 by refinement the structure of hot and warm deformation. Were carried out tests to determine the critical points of recrystallization and built thermokinetic curves of austenite decomposition. After that, for produce disperse ferrite in samples has been applied to the processing mode, which is exactly the same mode of controlled rolling, then, to obtain nanoscale state of the metal deformed at temperatures of bainite transformation with varying degrees of deformation at different temperatures. It was shown that the dispersion and morphology of the structure and, consequently, the mechanical properties vary depending on temperature and strain, and samples show satisfactory ductility at high strength.
