摘 要:After summarizing the relevant researches on the medium Mn steels in references, two new targets on the tensile properties have been defined. One is that both transformation-induced(TRIP) and twinninginduced plasticity(TWIP) could be realized for the steel with a relatively low Mn content, which exhibits the similar tensile properties to the classical TWIP steels with higher Mn content. The other is to achieve ultrahigh ultimate tensile strength(>1.5 GPa) without sacrificing formability. To achieve these goals,new designing strategies was put forward for compositions and the processing route. In particular, warm rolling was employed instead of the usual hot/cold rolling process because the former can produce a mixture of retained austenite grains with different morphologies and sizes via the partial recrystallization. Consequently, the retained austenite grains have a wide range of mechanic stability so that they can transform to martensite gradually during deformation, leading to enhanced TRIP effect and then improved mechanic properties. Finally, it is succeeded in manufacturing these targeted medium Mn steels in laboratory, some of them even exhibit better tensile properties than our expectation.
