Over many decades, significant efforts have been made to improve the strength-elongation
product of advanced high strength steels (AHSSs) by creating tailored multi-phase …

The mechanical and electrochemical properties of AISI420 martensitic stainless steels
(MSS) tempered at different temperatures (200, 400, and 600℃) are systematically …

Quenching and partitioning is a relatively new heat treatment concept to generate
microstructures containing retained austenite stabilised by carbon partitioning from …

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 …

Austenite was stabilized in the martensitic stainless steel grade AISI 420 by means of
quenching and partitioning (Q&P) processing. The effects of quenching temperature on the …

This study systematically evaluated the impact of dual-phase zone annealing on the
microstructure and mechanical properties of cold-rolled 430 Ferritic Stainless Steel (FSS) …

Fracture toughness K IC was measured by double edge-notched tension (DENT) specimens
with fatigue precracks on quenching and partitioning (Q&P)-treated high-strength (ultimate …

Quenching and partitioning steels create new opportunities for light-weight automotive
component design, however, a deeper understanding of microstructural damage and failure …

The enhancement of the fracture toughness is essential for opening the possible range of
applications of advanced high-strength steels, while the focus in the literature is primarily on …

Abstract Additively-manufactured (AM) 17-4 precipitation-hardening (PH) martensitic
stainless steel (SS) built from nitrogen-atomized powder often retains a large volume fraction …
