The microstructure of the advanced low carbon steel with a superior hardenability was studied. The steel contained the following main alloying elements, wt. %: C – 0.20; Cr – 2.0; Mn – 2.0; Si – 1.04 Ni – 1.0; Mo – 0.3. The dilatometer investigation of the steel under consideration revealed the only phase transformation occurring during continuous cooling (0.1...30 °C/s), which started at the martensite start temperature Ms. It was shown that the isothermal treatment of the studied steel led to the bainite formation above and below Ms. The temperature of the bainite morphology shift was determined.

Continuous Cooling

Continuous cooling curves of an extra-low carbon steel under three cooling rates are measured. The flow stress of the steel is established in compression tests during which the temperature is continuously decreasing. The phase transformation temperatures are determined from the cooling rate curve. The latent heat during phase transformation is calculated. A new variable, related to the volume fraction of transformation, is defined. Experimental results show that the relationship between the softening ratio of the flow stress due to phase transformation and this new variable may be described by a quadratic relationship. Based on this relationship and the continuous cooling curves, the flow stresses in the two-phase region are successfully predicted.

Trip Steels

Transformation Induced Plasticity (TRIP) steels with silicon–manganese (Si–Mn) as the main element have attracted a lot of attention and great interest from steel companies due to their low price, high strength, and high plasticity. Retained austenite is of primary importance as the source of high strength and high plasticity in Si–Mn TRIP steels. In this work, the cold rolled sheets of Si–Mn low carbon steel were treated with TRIP and Dual Phase (DP) treatment respectively. Then, the microstructure and composition of the Si–Mn low carbon steel were observed and tested. The static tensile test of TRIP steel and DP steel was carried out by a CMT5305 electronic universal testing machine. The self-built true stress–strain curve model of TRIP steel was verified. The simulation results were in good agreement with the experimental results. In addition, the phase transformation energy of retained austenite and the work borne by austenite in the sample during static stretching were calculated. The work done by austenite was 14.5 J, which was negligible compared with the total work of 217.8 J. The phase transformation energy absorption of retained austenite in the sample was 9.12 J. The role of retained austenite in TRIP steel is the absorption of excess energy at the key place where the fracture will occur, thereby increasing the elongation, so that the ferrite and bainite in the TRIP steel can absorb energy for a longer time and withstand more energy.

Ultra Low Carbon Steel

This paper investigates the surface texture evolution after a short phase transformation annealing in low vacuum on ultra low carbon steel sheets alloyed with high Mn and Al and the cold rolled steel sheets of industrial composition alloyed with silicon. The ultra low carbon steel sheets with high Mn and Al show surface monolayer which has a characteristic surface texture components <100>//ND texture and microstructure with special grain morphology. Contrastingly, the industrial composition alloyed with silicon does not show specific surface texture components inspired by surface energy anisotropy at the surface. The composition depth profiling investigations performed on the all steel sheet surface shows that oxidation characteristics of alloying elements at the metal vapour interface have played a decisive influence on surface texture evolution. Further, transformation annealing in higher vacuum reveals that surface texture can be obtained in an industrial composition alloyed with silicon.

Carburizing Process

Low carbon steel has extensive use in the construction field and is grouped into steel which can be processed with machinery (machinery steel). The prominent weakness of this material is the type of failure that often occurs in low carbon steel materials is wear, deformation, chopping, and breaking. The purpose of conducting this research is to find out the process of carburizing on (wood charcoal and acacia wood charcoal) on low carbon steel.This solid carburizing process uses a temperature of 900OC, with a hold time of 30 minutes. The material used is a mixture of wood charcoal with calcium carbonate and acacia wood charcoal with calcium carbonate. Tests carried out were rockwell hardness tests.The test results showed that the hardness of carbon steel which experienced carburizing treatment with acacia wood charcoal = 51.65 HRB. Hardness found in low carbon steel without treatment = 50.3 HRB. Hardness of wood charcoal = 50.6 HRB. Judging from the results above, the low carbon steel without treatment is smaller than carbon steel which is heat treated and carburized.

Pulse On Time

In this experimental work , we investigated optimization of process parameters in EDM using Taguchi method by taking Low carbon steel as work piece. Process parameters chosen were Pulse on-time (Ton), Flushing pressure(P) and Pulse Current(IP) . Here we have chosen L9 orthogonal array to study the effect of main factors and interaction between factors on the response variable i.e. Surface Roughness (SR), Material removal Rate (MRR) and Tool Wear Rate (TWR). The contribution of the main factors and interaction were determine here. The MR), TWR and surface integrity are some of the important performance attributes of EDM process. The objective of EDM is to get high MRR along with achieving reasonably good surface quality of machined component with reduced tool wear rate for Low carbon steel material.
