Abstract

The features of dynamic transformation for grain refinement of lowcarbon steels are presented and representative results of trial hotstrip productions are reported. Laboratory experiments have establishedthat dynamic transformation occurs in under-cooled austeniteunder suitable deformation conditions. Trial production resultsshowed that utilizing the dynamic transformation concept, grain refinementof ferrite is feasible in commercial hot strip mills: a ferritegrain size of 2~3 μm can be obtained, along with various controlledsecond phases.
