The effects of Mg and Mn contents on hot-rolling temperature and resultant tensile properties of Al-Mg-Mn alloys were investigated. The Al-3.5Mg-0.3 alloy as a reference and Al-7.5Mg-0.3Mn, Al-3.5Mg-1.0Mn alloys were prepared by casting for hot-rolling experiment. The rolling temperatures of both Al-7.5Mg-0.3Mn and Al-3.5Mg-1.0Mn alloys had to be decreased due to surface cracking during hot-rolling, which is caused by increased fractions of Mg-containing phases like Mg2Al3. The tensile strength of the hot-rolled Al-7.5Mg-0.3Mn alloy was highly increased by the combined effects of enhanced solid-solution and work-hardening at lower rolling temperature. And the resultant tensile strengths of the hot-rolled Al-3.5Mg-1.0Mn alloy were also increased due to dispersoid hardening by increased Mn content and work hardening during hot-rolling.

The effect of enter rolling temperatures on the grain size and toughness was investigated in Q345E H-beam steels. The experimental results shown that the grain size exhibited a complicated phenomenon with rolling temperature instead of refining as the temperature decreased as expected. It would be interpreted by the behaviors of deformation and recrystallization in austenite during rolling. The toughness is not only depended on the average grain size but also on the distribution of grain size as well as morphology of pearlite. The toughness would be decreased by the mixed grain size.

The effect of rolling temperatures on the interface microstructure and mechanical properties is investigated using 2-mm-thick TA1/Q235B composite sheets, which were prepared after nine passes of hot rolling of explosive welded plates. The results show that the vortex region and the transition layer exist in the interface at the explosive welded plate, while only the transition layer exists in the interface after hot rolling. The transition layer is composed of α-Ti, TiC, Fe, and FeTi, and the thickness increases with the increasing rolling temperature. The microhardness of the explosive welded plate is higher than that of the hot-rolling sheet, and the microhardness of interface are higher than that of matrix metals. The interface shear strength and tensile elongation of the hot-rolled sheet increase with the increasing hot rolling temperature, while the ultimate tensile strength (UTS), yield strength (YS) and Young modulus decrease with the increase of hot rolling temperature. The shear strength of sheets is related to the interfacial compounds, and the tensile strength is mainly affected by the grain morphology of the matrix.

To improve the hot-rolled processing rate and mechanical properties of Monel alloy plates, its hot-rolling and heat treatment technics were researched, and reasonable hot-rolling temperature and annealing temperature were designed. Through the hot-rolling tests of Monel alloy plates ingots under the condition of different temperatures with a hot-rolling mill, the true stress and true strain curves were measured, the regularity of the flow stress influenced by temperature was investigated, and the hot-rolling temperature was ensured. We also did some study on the effects of annealing temperature on the mechanical properties and metallographs. The results show the reasonable hot-rolling temperature of Monel alloy plates ranges between 1050°C and 1150°C, and its annealing temperature ranges between 650°C and 750°C.

Hot plastic working behavior and microstructure evolution were investigated during a production process of four medium-Mn steels, which differed in Mn (3 and 5%) and Nb contents. The production process started with casting, followed by hot forging, rough hot-rolling and concluded with final thermomechanical processing, which was performed to obtain multiphase bainite-based alloys with some fractions of retained austenite. The rough rolling was composed of four passes with total true strain of 0.99 and finishing rolling temperature of 850 °C, whereas thermomechanical processing contained five passes and total true strain of 0.95 at a finishing rolling temperature of 750 °C. During the process, the force parameters were recorded, which showed that the rolling forces for steels containing 3% Mn are higher compared to the 5% Mn alloys. There was no significant influence of Nb on the rolling parameters. The produced as-cast microstructures were composed of dendritic bainitic-martensitic phases. A positive effect of Nb micro-addition on a refinement of the as-cast structure was noticed. The thermomechanical processed steels showed fine multiphase microstructures with some fractions of retained austenite, the fraction of which depended on the Mn content in steel. The steels containing 3% Mn generated higher forces both during rough and thermomechanical rolling, which is related to slower recrystallization softening in these alloys compared to the steels containing 5% Mn.

Different methods of obtaining averages have been used to determine mean rolling temperatures from measured temperatures of various specimens during roll contact in hot flat rolling. The obtained mean rolling temperatures were used in turn in hot rolling simulation programs based on Sims, and Bland and Ford’s theories for calculating rolling loads and torque during hot flat rolling of steels at low strain rates (0.08 – 1.5 s-1). The hot rolling Bland and Ford’s (HRBF) Theory and Sim’s Theory gave similar results when any of the averaging methods of temperature is used to calculate rolling load and torque at high strain rates (1.5 –500s-1). However at low strain rates HRBF gave closer approximations to experimental results. Comparing the results with experimental values, the harmonic mean was found to give the best mean rolling temperature for hot flat rolling simulation at low strain rates compared to geometric mean, arithmetic mean and root mean square.

The present work investigates the microstructure and tensile properties of a hot rolled 6061 alloy quenched by cold rolls (RQ) at different preheating temperatures. The preheating temperature strongly affects microstructure evolution and mechanical properties. Low preheating temperature (490 °C) resulted in both low strength and low elongation. The RQ alloy preheated at 540 °C exhibited improved ductility compared to those subjected to T6 and T8 temper, and comparable strength to that after T8 temper. The dynamic recovery during hot rolling contributed to the improved tensile elongation and retained work hardening. High preheating temperature also led to pronounced ageing hardening during short-term ageing.

The effect of hot rolling temperature and reduction in ferrite region on the microstructure, texture and deep drawability of Ti-IF steel sheets were investigated. The results showed that after ferritic hot rolling and annealing, Ti-IF steel sheets developed uniform equiaxed ferrite grains and strong <111>//ND recrystallized fibers, the maximum r-value was 1.725 and good deep drawability was achieved. The deep drawability was improved with the decrease of ferritic hot rolling temperature, also enhanced with the increase of reduction in ferrite region. Texture analysis indicated that low hot rolling temperature and large reduction in ferrite region could increase the intensities of favorable {111}<112> and {554}<225> recrystallization textures and also reduce that of unfavorable {001}<110> recrystallization texture, therefore the r-value and deep drawability were enhanced.

In this paper, the influence of chemical compositon on the formability of γ-fibre texture, and the hot band microstrcture has been studied. Experiments have been conducted to investigate the effect of hot rolling conditions. Nb-Ti added and Nb-Ti free specimens hot rolled in differencd hot rolling conditions have been compared. The results show that, the change in band width is dependent on hot rolling tempreture. When the hot band are rolled at the temperature of 1150-950 °C, large sizes on ferrite grain are observed, and this character is presented more obviously in the specimen with no Nb-Ti. As the incresaing of the hot rolling temperature, the intensity of γ-fibre texture decreases. γ-fibre texture presented in Nb-Ti added specimen is stronger under three hot rolling conditions.

Mg-2Zn-0.3Gd sheets processed by large strain hot rolling with one pass of 80% reduction at 200°C and 250°C were selected to investigate the rolling temperature effect on the microstructure, texture and mechanical properties of Mg-2Zn-0.3Gd sheets after rolling and subsequent annealing. It was found that the rolling temperatures in the present study seemed to have no obvious effect on the microstructure of Mg-2Zn-0.3Gd sheets during large strain hot rolling process. High density of shear bands and numerous intersected twins but free of DRX grains were observed in the microstructure of both sheets. The Mg-2Zn-0.3Gd sheets showed non-basal textures with peaks tilting to TD after annealing. While the peak intensity of (0002) pole figure increased as the rolling temperature decreasing. Tensile testing results revealed that the Mg-2Zn-0.3Gd sheets rolled at both temperature displayed high room temperature ductility about 40% after annealing, which is due to the existence of non-basal texture.
