Study on Transformation Behavior of Retained Austenite in TRIP Steel

Article Preview

Abstract:

The microstructures of CR600TR steel were characterized using optical metallography, SEM, TEM and EBSD techniques, especially the transformation behavior of retained austenite and fracture mechanism of TRIP steel under stress-strain were studied in detail. It is discovered that there is marked selectivity for those retained austenite grains in their transition sequences: they are even dependent on the extension paths of stress-strain in steel and that curvatures of grain-boundaries which the retained austenite grains lie in.
