Microstructure evolution and strain hardening behavior of thermomechanically processed low-C high-manganese steels: an effect of deformation temperature
Effects of reduced (– 40 °C), ambient (20 °C), and elevated (200 °C) deformation temperatures on the microstructure evolution and strain hardening behavior of two low-C thermomechanically processed high-manganese steels were studied. The microstructure was characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. The temperature-dependent tendency of austenite to strain-induced ε/α′-martensitic transformation and mechanical twinning was qualitatively and quantitatively assessed using the EBSD technique. The steel containing 26 wt% of Mn showed the beneficial strength–ductility balance at reduced deformation temperature -40 °C due to the intense Transformation-Induced Plasticity (TRIP) effect which resulted in the formation of significant ε- and α′-martensite fractions during tensile deformation. The mechanical properties of steel containing 27 wt% of Mn were more beneficial at elevated deformation temperature 200 °C due to the occurrence of intense Twinning-Induced Plasticity (TWIP) effect expressed by the presence of significant fraction of mechanical twins. Moreover, at the highest deformation temperature 200 °C, the evidence of thermally activated processes affecting the mechanical behavior of the higher Mn steel was identified and described.
