Effect of grain size on dynamic strain aging behavior of C-bearing high Mn twinning-induced plasticity steel
In this work, the effects of grain size on the tensile properties, serrated flow, Portevin-Le Châtelier (PLC) band evolution, dislocation density, and microstructure evolution of Fe–22Mn-0.6C steel were investigated using digital image correlation (DIC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electro...

| Sumario: | In this work, the effects of grain size on the tensile properties, serrated flow, Portevin-Le Châtelier (PLC) band evolution, dislocation density, and microstructure evolution of Fe–22Mn-0.6C steel were investigated using digital image correlation (DIC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and monotonic tensile tests. Results show that the yield strength, tensile strength, and work hardening value of Fe–22Mn-0.6C steel increase whereas its elongation decreases with decreasing grain size. The critical strain of serration decreases whereas the amplitude of serration increases with decreasing grain size. Moreover, the plateau of serrations is larger and that the strain concentration within PLC bands is more severe in fine-grained steel than in coarse-grained steel. The dynamic strain aging (DSA) behavior of the steel is enhanced by grain refinement. The speed of PLC band movement decreases faster in fine-grained steel than in coarse-grained steel, which results in a decrease in plasticity. XRD and TEM analyses show that the high dislocation density and unique twin substructure may be the main reasons for the strong DSA phenomenon observed in fine-grained steel. |
