The isothermal transformation kinetics, microstructure and mechanical properties of a low-
carbon bainitic steel, subjected to below-Ms/above-Ms austempering with or without prior …

We applied a hot rolling direct quenching and partitioning (HDQ&P) process to a low-C low-
Si Al-added steel and obtained a Q&P steel containing 40 vol% of ferrite. Microstructure …

This article introduces the microstructural and mechanical properties of low and medium-
carbon advanced martensitic steels (AMSs) subjected to heat-treatment, hot-and warm …

The effect of the microstructural characteristics of retained austenite on its transformation
stability in steel after Quenching and Partitioning (Q&P) was studied via interrupted tensile …

In this work, the influence of reversed austenite on the intergranular corrosion of
AM355MSSs (martensitic stainless steels) was investigated. The combined results revealed …

A novel low carbon Cu-bearing medium-Mn steel was designed and subjected to intercritical
annealing (IA) and tempering (IAT). The yield strength and uniform elongation significantly …

Intercritical tempering at 680° C for different times was carried out in a low carbon copper-
bearing steel to study the evolution of the crystal structure of Cu precipitates by high …

Intercritical annealing, flash process and tempering were innovatively combined to obtain
high strength-high ductility combination in 0.12 C–4.89 Mn-1.57 Al steel. The process …

Abstract A 0.3 C–13Cr martensitic stainless steel (MSS) was subjected to quenching and
partitioning (Q&P) treatment. Due to the different thermodynamic condition from the standard …

In this study, the relationship between microstructure and hardness of the cladding layer
obtained from a real laser cladding knife was investigated. It was developed for high-end …
