Improvement of Austenitic Hadfield Mn-Steel Properties By Thermomechanical Processing

Abstract: A thermomechanical processing technique is used to improve austenitic Hadfield Mn-steel wear properties. ASTM A128 grade C steel billets were sized and multi-pass hot rolled. Rolling has been successfully carried out up to an 80% reduction in thickness on four passes in the temperature range 1200 to 800 °C. The inter-pass time ranged between 9 to 13 seconds. The steel was then solution treated at 900, 1000 and 1100°C for 30 min. at temperature. Austenite grain size was measured and the carbide volume fraction … Show more

“…The austenite grains are refined. One report [25] pointed out that carbides are basically shows that holding at 950 °C for a period of time can ensure the dissolution of M 7 C 3 carbides. To prevent the coarsening of crystal grains, the temperature of the highest holding stage is set at 1100 °C [23], and the progressive solidsolution treatment route is shown in figure 1(c).…”

“…Hardness in these steels is quite important because it allows qualitative estimation of the austenite decomposition in other constituents. The austenite of these steels is by far the softest constituent, and therefore any significant increase in hardness above 220-250 HB in the absence of cold working can be interpreted as due to the decomposition of austenite [1].…”

“…Manganese austenitic steels, also known as Hadfield steels, are among the ferrous alloys most used under severe wear conditions in the presence of impacts at low temperatures. There are numerous works evaluating the properties of these types of steel [1][2][3][4], the transformation phenomenon of retained austenite in martensite [5][6][7], and the influence of the service deformation processes on the properties and microstructure [8][9][10]. However, these steels suffer accelerated wear when the working temperature is above 100 • C due to carbide precipitation and subsequent loss of hardness.…”

“…Numerous theoretical and experimental studies have been performed to describe the process of shear localisation and to determine the factors governing the process. [12][13][14][15] Although various studies on low strain rate deformation resistance, work hardening mechanisms, strain aging, thermomechanical processing, formability characterisation, microstructural evolution and the superplasticity of high manganese steel have been carried out, [16][17][18][19][20][21] very little information is available regarding the mechanical properties and fracture behaviour of this material under high strain rate compression loading conditions. Accordingly, the purpose of the present study is to investigate the mechanical properties and fracture evolution of austenitic manganese steel in compression as a function of strain rate using the split Hopkinson bar.…”
