Introducing ultrafine ferrite in low-temperature bainitic steel through a novel process for simultaneously improving strength and toughness

A novel process is proposed to introduce ultrafine ferrite in a medium-carbon high-silicon steel that possesses low-temperature bainite. This process is based on the intercritical annealing of the cold-rolled tempered troostite and subsequent austempering at a temperature of 10 °C above martensite s...
