Fracture mechanisms were also analyzed based on the relationship between microstructure transformation and continuous cooling transformation(CCT) curves. It is found that 1) fractures of the investigated steel at high temperatures are dimple fractures; 2) the deformation of high-strength boron steel at high temperatures accelerates diffusion transformations; thus, to obtain full martensite, a higher cooling rate is needed; and 3) the investigated steel has the best plasticity when the deformation temperature is 750 °C.展开更多

At 960 deg C, the best superplasticdeformation that caused the maximum elongation greater than 840 percent was obtained for an initialstrain rate of 1.2X10^(-3) s^(-1). At 850 deg C, the best elongation 500 percent was achieved for aninitial strain rate of 2.5X10^(-3) s^(-1) During the deformation in higher temperature region,coarse gamma grains formed during the prior treatments were broken into spherical particles,resulting in a homogeneous dispersion of gamma particles within the delta-ferrite matrix. However,at lower temperatures between 800 and 950 deg C, the sigma phase was formed through the eutectoiddecomposition of delta->gamma+sigma, resulting finally in the stable equiaxed micro-duplexstructures with delta/gamma and gamma/sigma respectively. The precipitation of the sigma phaseplayed an important role in improving the superplasticity at 850 deg C. The strain-rate sensitivitycoefficient, m-values, were also determined by the strain rate change tests. The microstructurestudies show that the superplastic process occurs mainly by the local work hardening and thesubsequent dynamic recrystallization and a grain boundary sliding and grain switching mechanism.展开更多
