The Static Recrystallization Behavior of Fe-Mn-Si-Al Series TWIP Steel

he softening and static recrystallization behavior of typical Fe-Mn-Si-Al series TWIP steel between high temperature deformation passes was investigated by two-pass hot compress deformation experiments on Gleeble-3500 thermal simulated test machine. The dynamic model of static recrystallization was built according to the experimental results. The investigation of the effects of deformation temperature, deformation rate and pre-deformation shows that deformation rate is the most effective parameter, and the increase of deformation and pre-deformation can also promote the static recrystallization. The calculated static recrystallization activation energy of TWIP steel is about 147kJ/mol through the dynamic equation built. The results of model predict conform to the experimental results.
