Effect of Mo on Transformation, Microstructure and Property of Hot-Rolled DP600 Steel
In according with the transformation rules of C-Si-Mn-Cr and C-Si-Mn-Cr-Mo tested steels, rolling experiment was carried out in lab. to analyze the effect of Mo on transformation, microstructure and property of high strength hot rolled dual phase steels. The results showed that the addition of element Mo decreased start temperature of ferrite transformation and restrains pearlite transformation. There was a metastable austenite zone between ferrite and bainite transformation zone of No.2 steel with 0.35% of Mo. After controlled rolling and step cooling process, dual phase microstructures in which fine martensite islands dispersed in soft ferrite matrix were obtained by two kinds of tested steel. With the addition of Mo, yield strength and tensile strength increased by 80MPa and 60MPa respectively, meanwhile, elongation increased slightly.
