Abstract

The ingots were rolled by 550 mills in laboratory to obtain dual-phase steels. The influence of the morphology and distribution of ferrite and martensite on mechanical properties of dual-phase steel was investigated. The results indicated that some amount of acicular ferrite transformed in DP steel is available for decreasing the size and homogenizing the distribution of martensite in ferrite base. Meanwhile, the values of yield strength, tensile strength and impact toughness increases apparently, the value of elongation decreases to 22.5% .
