چکیده

transformation induced plasticity (trip) steels have a vast application in automotive industry because of theirhigh strength, high ductility and hence excellent energy absorption capacity. these characteristics of tripsteels are due to the existence of retained austenite in their microstructures in the ambient temperature, whichtransforms to the martensite phase during deformation. the microstructure of trip steel contains various phasesand in the past-published studies mainly the volume fraction of retained austenite was investigated and thereis not a quantitative comprehensive investigation about all phases in the microstructure of this steel. the maingoal in this study is a comprehensive qualitative and quantitative investigation in various phases of trip steelmicrostructure. therefore, a trip steel with chemical composition of 0.2c+ 1.43si+ 1.58mn was produced andits complicated microstructure which contained ferrite, bainite, martensite and retained austenite was investigatedusing x-ray diffractometry (xrd), optical microscopy (om), field emission scanning microscopy (fe-sem)and electron backscatter diffraction (ebsd). the om and fe-sem results were used only to qualitative studiesand identification of the morphologies of the phases but the ebsd results and functions were used to qualitativeand quantitative studies. the volume fractions of retained austenite, ferrite+bainite and martensite phases werecalculated and the amounts of 11%, 82% and 7% were obtained, respectively. the volume fraction of retainedaustenite was also measured with xrd and the amount of 14.3% was obtained.

Investigation of Transformation Induced Plasticity in High Al–low Si TRIP Steel

This study was conducted in order to investigate the influence of plastic deformation on the transformation of retained austenite in a TRIP steel with a high content of Al and a low content of Si. To the aim, appropriate treatments were used to produce the starting material (TRIP steel). The microstructure of the obtained steel was composed of bainite and phases including ferrite and retained a...

Mechanical Stabilisation of Retained Austenite in δ–TRIP Steel

Recent research suggests that extraordinary combinations of strength and ductility can be achieved in the so–called δ–TRIP steels, which contain ferrite, bainite and austenite. A part of the reason for the ductility of almost 40% elongation at a strength of some 900MPa, is believed to be the optimal stability of the austenite to plastic deformation. We demonstrate here that mechanical stabilisa...

Site-specific atomic-scale characterisation of retained austenite in a strip cast TRIP steel

Knowledge of carbon content in retained austenite (RA) with different neighbouring phases is essential to understand the chemical stability of RA, which is useful for microstructure tuning of transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) steels. The present study investigates different morphologies and chemical compositions of RA by correlating electron backscattering diffraction, transmission elect...

Complete Calculation of Steel Microstructure for Strong Alloys

Strong steels also have to be tough and hence rely on fine microstructures such as bainite or martensite, produced commercially by continuous cooling transformation. Depending on the detailed requirements, the steel-design process may explicitly require other higher temperature phases to be absent in the final microstructure. Such a procedure can be made easier by the availability of a good met...
