A Two‐Step Thermomechanical Process for Improving High‐Angle Grain Boundary Proportion and Achieving Delamination Toughening in Hot‐Rolled Steel with a Limited Slab‐to‐Plate Ratio
Abstract:A two-step thermomechanical process is utilized to increase high-angle grain boundary (HAGB) proportion and achieve delamination cracks in hot-rolled steel produced by a limited slab-to-plate ratio. Three plates are austenitized at 900 °C and hot rolled with 65%, 57%, and 50% reduction at 880-800 °C after rolling at 1100-1050 °C followed by water cooling. Water quenching tests are carried out to prove the advantages of the two-step thermomechanical process. The steels having 69.9-71.8% HAGB proportion and dela… Show more
