Abstract: The continuous cooling transformation (CCT) behaviors of two vanadium (V) micro-alloyed steels with different Nitrogen (N) levels were investigated under the undeformed and deformed conditions, respectively. It is found that the austenite-bainite transformation is suppressed during dynamic CCT process due to hot deformation. For V-N steel, the transformation of austenite-proeutectoid ferrite and austenite-acicular ferrite (AF) occur under a wider range of cooling rates.
