Analysis of Recrystallization Behavior of Hot-Deformed Austenite Reconstructed from EBSD Orientation Maps of Lath Martensite

Abstract:

The recrystallization behavior of hot-deformed austenite of 0.55% C low alloy steels at 900, 850 and 800°C was investigated by a conventional double-hit compression test and a new method which reconstructs the parent austenite orientation map from an EBSD (electron backscattering diffraction) orientation map of daughter lath martensite. The new method can clearly reconstruct the parent austenite structure at high temperature from the daughter lath martensite structure and we can obtain the information on crystal orientation of the work-hardened austenite. It was revealed that recrystallization of austenite at 800 °C is significantly retarded by the addition of 0.1% V. The strong texture of <110> parallel to the compression direction develops just after the hot-deformation, but this texture becomes weaker as the recrystallization progresses. By applying the reconstruction method, it becomes possible to evaluate various phenomena related to the hot-deformation of austenite
