The influence of reheating temperatures on hot ductility is investigated in two Ni-, Mo-, and Cu-containing low-carbon steels. The effects of solution treatment conditions at 1623, 1673 K, and remelting at 1803 K on the reduction in area (RA) are analyzed. The results show an RA trough in the range of 973–1173 K in all experimental conditions. At 9...

The effect of Ce on hot ductility of Cu-As bearing steel in the temperature ranging from 700 to 1100 °C was investigated using Gleeble-3800 thermal-mechanical simulator. The hot ductility evaluation and fracture morphology observation showed that the hot ductility was obviously improved as Ce content increased from 0 to 0.0290 wt%. Detailed, the up...
The article aims to investigate the effect of different austenitization temperatures on the hot ductility of C-Mn-Al High-Strength Low-Alloy (HSLA) steel. The thermo-mechanical simulator of physical processes Gleeble 1500D was used for steel hot ductility study. Hot ductility was estimated by measuring the reduction of area after static tensile tes...

The hot tensile tests were conducted in this study to investigate the effects of Nb, B, Mo, and V on hot ductility of 25CrMo alloy steel in a temperature range of 650–850°C with strain rates of 0.005 and 0.5 s−1. Besides, the influences of ferrite transformation and precipitates on hot ductility were also investigated by the use of SEM and TEM. The...

It is well-known that the surface quality of the niobium microalloy profiled billet directly affects the comprehensive mechanical properties of the H-beam. The effects of chromium on the γ/α phase transformation and high-temperature mechanical properties of Nb-microalloyed steel were studied by Gleeble tensile and high-temperature in-situ observati...

La coulée des aciers inoxydables, autrefois en lingots, s’effectue aujourd’hui par coulée continue. Ce mode de coulée a permis une considérable simplification de la gamme de fabrication (suppression du dégrossissage au blooming). La généralisation de la coulée continue aux aciers inoxydables fut assez tardive car il fallait satisfaire à deux impéra...

Effect of boron on the hot ductility and room-temperature tensile properties of Ti-Nb-microalloyed steels containing 0.071 wt.% carbon was studied. The thermal stress and thermal strain of continuous casting billets during cooling were simulated via hot tensile tests at the deformation rate of (6 mm/11,000)/s, and the hot ductility of different mic...
Nil strength temperature of 1062 degrees C and nil ductility temperature of 1040 degrees C were experimentally set for CuFe2 alloy. The highest formability at approx. 1020 degrees C is unusable due to massive grain coarsening. The local minimum of ductility around the temperature 910 degrees C is probably due to minor formation of gamma-iron. In th...
S využitím simulátoru HDS-20 byly zkoumány plastické vlastnosti za vysokých teplot dvou nízkolegovaných Cr-Mo ocelí, které se lišily obsahem uhlíku a manganu. Speciálním testem byla stanovena teplota nulové pevnosti obou ocelí. V případě oceli 4130 byla teplota nulové pevnosti rovna 1444 °C, v případě oceli 4140 (s vyšším obsahem uhlíku) byla teplo...

This work conducted systematic studies on the effect of B on the hot ductility behavior of Fe-36Ni alloy over the temperature range of 900–1,200 °C by use of Gleeble-3500 thermal simulator, Thermo-Calc software, transmission electron microscopy and secondary ion mass spectroscopy. The influencing factors and mechanisms are also discussed in the pre...
