- Abstract
In order to reveal the function of Mg on the characteristics of mechanical properties in high strength low alloy steel, the steels containing with different Mg contents were refined with vacuum induction furnace and rolled with double-stick reversible rolling mill. The characteristics of mechanical properties and rolled microstructure were systematically investigated in present study. The results show that, the yield and the tensile strengths increase with Mg content from 0.0008% to 0.0026%. The 0.0026%Mg addition makes the yield strength, tensile strength, and elongation of steel increase to 473MPa, 605MPa and 36.5%, increasing by 38MPa,70MPa, and 8% compared with the steel without Mg addition. The improved toughness is obtained both the transversal and longitudinal impact, and the increment in the Charpy impact toughness is also characterized to increase with the concentrations from 0.0008% to 0.0026%. The improved toughness and tensile of Mg-containing steels are attributed to both the refined microstructure and the bainite dominated microstructure in steel. Moreover, the bainitic structure obtained by the addition of Mg into the molten steel results in a continuous yield behavior emerges in 0.0026%Mg steel.
