The annealing treatment could be divided into three distinct stages: recovery, recrystallization and grain growth. Reerystallization took place from 933 to 1033 K, during which a large number of recrystallized grains appear and hardness drops sharply. The morphology and size of TiN particles nearly remained unchanged at different stages of processing. With increasing annealing temperature, nanometer precipitates coarsened and the dislocation density was significantly reduced. In comparison with annealing time, annealing temperature was more crucial for recrystallization of cold rolled Ti microalloyed steel. It could be concluded that the pinning force of nanometer particles on dislocations increased the recrystallization temperature. At higher annealing temperature, re crystallization took place because of precipitates coarsening caused by Ostwald ripening.展开更多

Based on the theory of the TiN particle dissolution and coarsening kinetic models in weld thermal cycle and some metallographic data from thermal simulated samples, the grain growth diagram of Ti-microalloyed steel is presented. The experimental data from thermal simulated weld samples agreed well with the value of the diagram predicted.展开更多
