An ultrahigh strength and enhanced ductility cold-rolled medium-Mn steel was manufactured
via intercritical annealing. The fine lamellar and equiaxed duplex microstructure, austenite …

Abstract A Fe-8.9 Mn-1.59 Si-1.0 Al-0.25 C medium-Mn steel was designed, and lath-like
recovered martensite and reversed austenite were mainly obtained due to 20% reduction …

A novel concept of microstructure design involving warm rolling and low-temperature
annealing has been proposed to greatly improve the strength-ductility combination of …

A novel heterogeneous medium Mn steel with a nominal composition of Fe-0.18 C-7.8 Mn-
1.65 Al-0.04 Ce wt.% is successfully fabricated by introducing various nucleation energy …

An ultrahigh tensile strength (over 1000 MPa) and enhanced elongation (65%) of hot-rolled
6Mn steel is designed through controlling the combination of fraction and stability of …

A heterostructured medium Mn steel with duplex phases (ferrite and austenite) and multiple
morphologies (lath-typed and granular) is fabricated by a novel two-stage warm rolling …

Medium-Mn steels are characterized by ultrafine-grained (UFG) duplex microstructure
consisting of ferrite and a large amount of retained austenite. Intercritical annealing is of …

The room temperature tensile behavior of intercritically annealed hot‐rolled Fe‐8% Mn‐
0.4% C‐3% Al‐2% Si‐(0–0.2)% V steel, with an ultra‐fine grained austeno‐ferritic …

In this study a C-Mn High Strength Low Alloy steel (HSLAs) was processed by quenching
and austenite reverted transformation during annealing (ART-annealing), which results in an …

Martensitic transformation significantly increases the strength of low-carbon steels, while it is
usually at expense of the formability and ductility. In order to further improve the mechanical …
