Towards industrial applicability of (medium C) nanostructured bainitic steels
Sector: Steel • Location: Spain, Germany, Finland, Belgium

Excellent combinations of strength and toughness can be obtained from high-carbon nanobainite, but this requires high levels of alloying and long heat treatments. This project will develop very fine bainitic – austenitic steels more cost effectively from leaner medium carbon alloys using shorter processing times via thermomechanical ausforming. Tensile strengths above 1600MPa are aimed at to give

Description
Description | Excellent combinations of strength and toughness can be obtained from high-carbon nanobainite, but this requires high levels of alloying and long heat treatments. This project will develop very fine bainitic – austenitic steels more cost effectively from leaner medium carbon alloys using shorter processing times via thermomechanical ausforming. Tensile strengths above 1600MPa are aimed at to give hot rolled steels with enhanced wear resistance combined with good toughness. Suitable compositions and processing parameters will be developed using modelling and physical simulation. Trial products will be produced and tested using laboratory rolled materials, and recommendations for full-scale production parameters will be made. |
