Abstract
AbstractIn this study, a microalloyed low carbon steel was subjected to quenching and partitioning (Q&P) heat treatment processes. The primary ferrite-pearlite microstructure of the steel was transformed into a bainitic microstructure containing interlath and sporadic blocks of retained austenite. The applied heat treatment process partitioned the carbon into the retained austenite to a weight percentage of 0.136. The microalloyed low-carbon steel acquired a continuous yield with high yield strength, a gigapascal level of ultimate tensile strength (i.e., ~ 1.1 GPa), and a very low yield ratio (i.e., 0.55) while retaining reasonable ductility and toughness when compared to the preheat-treated values.
