Abstract
Abstract
Asymmetric rolling (ASR) is an efficient processing for fabricating ultrafine-grained (UFG) materials. In the present investigation, interstitial-free (IF) steels with the grain size ranged from 500 nm to 500 μm were obtained by asymmetric rolling and subsequent annealing. The evolution of microstructures and mechanical properties of IF steel were studied. Accordingly, the Hall-Petch relationship of IF steel with a wide grain size range was established. It was found that ultimate tensile strength (UTS) corresponds well to the Hall-Petch relationship over the whole grain size range. However, the yield strength (YS) and hardness deviated from the Hall-Petch relationship as the grain size is larger than 100 μm, which is mainly attributed to the slight effect of grain boundary as obstacle on the dislocation movement and/or pile-up under small deformation in coarse grain (CG).
