Purpose: The aim of the paper is to compare results after thermo-mechanical simulation using Gleeble 3800 and hot-rolling on LPS module of high-manganese austenitic X11MnSiAl7-1-3 steel. Design/methodology/approach: The hot-working behaviour was determined in continuous, 4- and 8-stage compression tests performed in a temperature range of 850 to 1100°C by the use of the Gleeble 3800 thermo-mechanical simulator and LPS module for semi-industrial hot rolling. The comparison between two processes has been established based on microstructure research and X-ray diffraction analysis. Findings: It was found that austenite microstructure with numerous annealing twins in the initial state was obtained. 4-stage compression tests were realized in the temperature range from 850 to 1050°C with the true strain 4x0.23. 8-stage compression test were performed in the same temperature range and with true strain of 0.4 in the first deformation, and 0.25 and 0.2 in the following deformations. The multi-stage compression examination gives the possibility to refine the austenite microstructure. Based on this research hot-rolling on LPS module in the temperature range from 1100°C to 850°C was realized. Based on microstructures research were found that this process is not perfect due to longer intervals between successive passes and inability to control the temperatures of following passes. Practical implications: The obtained stress-strain curves relationship and microstructure after Gleeble simulations can be useful in determination of power-force parameters of hot-rolling for thin sheets to obtain fine-grained austenitic microstructures. Originality/value: The hot-working behavior and microstructure evolution in various conditions of plastic deformation for new-developed high-manganese austenitic steels were investigated.

Purpose: The purpose of the article is to present the results of research of the effect of thermal and thermoplastic working on the structure of high-manganese austenitic TWIP steels. Design/methodology/approach: Plastometric tests were performed with DSI (Dynamic System Inc.) Gleeble 3800 instrumentation being the equipment of the Scientific and Didactic Laboratory of Nanotechnology and Materials Technologies of the Institute of Engineering Materials and Biomaterials. Changes in the microstructure after individual stages of hot plastic deformation were determined on the basis of detailed microstructure tests with the light microscope and scanning electron microscope. An X-ray phase qualitative analysis of the examined materials in the condition after casting and after thermoplastic working was carried out with the XPert diffractometer by Philips. Findings: It was concluded based on the tests performed that the structure of the examined austenitic high-manganese steel in the initial condition is represented by austenite with numerous annealing twins. The results obtained for investigations in a continuous compression test will enable to establish power and energy parameters and design a hot compression process, consisting of several phases, of axisymmetric specimens, simulating the final rolling passes. Practical implications: By elaborating the detailed data concerning structural changes and power and energy parameters of the thermoplastic working process of the investigated high-manganese austenitic TWIP steel type, it will be possible to design appropriately the final passes of the hot rolling process to obtain an optimum size of grains, which will in turn influence the improved strength properties of the investigated high-manganese austenitic X11MnSiAl25-1-3 steel. Originality/value: The application of thermoplastic working of high-manganese austenitic TWIP steel.

The resistance research has been done on the CSM Instruments. Design/methodology/approach: In this paper the results of laser treatment techniques applied in metal surface technology are presented and discussed. There is presented laser treatment with feeding or remelting of hot work tool steel X40CrMoV5-1 with ceramic powders especially - Al2O3 and Si3N4, as well as results of laser remelting influence on structure and properties of the surface of the hot work steel, carried out using the high power diode laser (HPDL).

Purpose: The aim of the paper is to determine the influence of hot-working conditions on microstructure evolution and phase composition of new-developed high-manganese austenitic TRIP-type steels. Design/methodology/approach: The hot-working behaviour was determined in continuous and multistage compression tests performed in a temperature range of 850 to 1100°C by the use of the Gleeble 3800 thermo-mechanical simulator. The processes controlling work hardening and removing it were identified by microstructure evolution observations in different stages of compression with the amount of true strain 4x0.23. Phase composition of steels was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. Findings: It was found that they have austenite microstructure with numerous annealing twins in the initial state. Continuous compression tests realized in the temperature range from 850 to 1050°C with the strain rate of 0.1, 1 and 10 s-1 enabled determination of yield stress values and values of εmax deformations - corresponding to maximum flow stress. The investigated steels are characterized by high values of flow stress from 120 to 380 MPa. Results of the multi-stage compression proved that applying the true strain 4x0.23 gives the possibility to refine the austenite microstructure. Research limitations/implications: To determine in detail the microstructure evolution during industrial rolling, the hot-working schedule should take into account real number of passes and higher strain rates. Practical implications: The obtained microstructure - hot-working conditions relationships and stress-strain curves can be useful in determination of power-force parameters of hot-rolling for sheets with fine-grained austenitic structures. Originality/value: The hot-working behaviour and microstructure evolution in various conditions of plastic deformation for new-developed high-manganese austenitic TRIP-type steels with Nb and Ti microadditions were investigated.

Purpose: The work consisted in investigation of newly elaborated high-manganese austenitic steels with Nb and Ti microadditions in variable conditions of hot-working. Design/methodology/approach: The force-energetic parameters of hot-working were determined in continuous and multi-stage compression test performed in temperature range of 850 to 1100°C using the Gleeble 3800 thermomechanical simulator. Evaluation of processes controlling work-hardening were identified by microstructure observations of the specimens compresses to the various amount of deformation (4x0.29, 4x0.23 and 4x0.19). The microstructure evolution in successive stages of deformation was determined in metallographic investigations using light, scanning and electron microscopy as well as X-ray diffraction. Findings: The investigated steels are characterized by high values of flow stresses from 230 to 450 MPa. The flow stresses are much higher in comparison with austenitic Cr-Ni and Cr-Mn steels and slightly higher compared to Fe-(15-25)Mn alloys. Increase of flow stress along with decrease of compression temperature is accompanied by translation of εmax strain in the direction of higher deformation. Results of the multi-stage compression proved that applying the true strain 4x0.29 gives the possibility to refine the austenite microstructure as a result of dynamic recrystallization. In case of applying the lower deformations 4x0.23 and 4x0.19, the process controlling work hardening is dynamic recovery and a deciding influence on a gradual microstructure refinement has statical recrystallization. The steel 27Mn-4Si-2Al-Nb-Ti has austenite microstructure with annealing twins and some fraction of ε martensite plates in the initial state. After the grain refinement due to recrystallization, the steel is characterized by uniform structure of γ phase without ε martensite plates. Research limitations/implications: To determine in detail the microstructure evolution during industrial rolling, the hot-working schedule should take into account real number of passes and higher strain rates. Practical implications: The obtained microstructure - hot-working relationships can be useful in the determination of power-force parameters of hot-rolling and to design a rolling schedule for high-manganese steel sheets with fine-grained austenitic structures. Originality/value: The hot-deformation resistance and microstructure evolution in various conditions of hot-working for the new-developed high-manganese austenitic steels were investigated.

The high-manganese steels with the austenitic structure belong to a group of modern steels predicted to use in the automotive industry. The chemical composition of the steel containing 25% Mn, solution hardened by Si and Al was developed. Microadditions of Nb and Ti introduced into the steel creating stable nitrides and carbides should act by precipitation hardening and inhibit a grain growth of recrystallized austenite. The aim of the work was to determine the influence of various hot-working conditions on a structure of the investigated steel. The processes controlling work-hardening and removing strengthening after finishing the hot-working were identified. The preliminary upset forging by the use of eccentric press with a degree of deformation in a range of 20 to 60% and at temperatures of 850 and 1000 C was carried out. On the basis of determined conditions the multi-stage axial compression tests ensuring the finegrained austenite structure were performed.

Purpose: The aim of the paper is to determine the influence of hot-working conditions on microstructure evolution and phase composition of new-developed high-manganese austenitic steels. Design/methodology/approach: Determination of processes controlling strain hardening was carried out in continuous compression test using Gleeble 3800 thermo-mechanical simulator. Evaluation of processes controlling work hardening and occurring after deformation at 900°C were identified by microstructure observations of the specimens solution heat-treated after plastic deformation to a true strain equal 0.23, 0.50 and 0.91. Phase composition of steels was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. Findings: The steels have a fine-grained austenite microstructure with many annealing twins to a temperature of about 1000°C. The initiation of dynamic recrystallization occurs already after true deformation equal 0.29. Participation of fine grains arranged in a matrix of dynamically recovered grains essentially increases after increasing true strain to 0.5. Fully dynamically recrystallized microstructure of steel can be obtained after the true strain equal 0.9. The conditions of hot-working influence phase state of investigated steels. Steel no. 1 keeps stable austenite microstructure independently from conditions of plastic deformation. Steel with initial bi-phase microstructure keeps a certain portion of ε martensite, yet dependant on conditions of hot-working. Research limitations/implications: To determine in detail the hot-working behaviour of developed steels, a progress of microstructure evolution in subsequent stages of multi-stage compression test should be investigated. Practical implications: The obtained microstructure- hot-working conditions relationships and stress-strain curves can be useful in determination of power-force parameters of hot-rolling for sheets with fine-grained austenitic structures. Originality/value: The hot-working behaviour and microstructure evolution in various conditions of plastic deformation for new-developed high-manganese austenitic steels with Nb and Ti microadditions were investigated.

Purpose: The aim of the paper is to determine the influence of hot deformation conditions on σ - ε curves and structure changes of new-developed high-manganese austenitic steels. Design/methodology/approach: The force-energetic parameters of hot-working were determined in hot-compression tests performed in a temperature range of 850 to 1050° C by the use of the Gleeble 3800 thermomechanical simulator. Evaluation of processes controlling work hardening at 850° C were identified by microstructure observations of the specimens water-quenched after plastic deformation to a true strain equal 0.22, 0.51 and 0.92. Findings: At initial state the steel containing 3% of Si and Al possesses homogeneous austenite structure with many annealing twins. Increased up to 4% Si concentration and decreased to 2% Al concentration result in a presence of some fraction of ε martensite plates. For applied deformation conditions, the values of flow stress vary from 250 to 450MPa - increasing with decreasing deformation temperature. A relatively small values of ε max deformation at temperatures of 1050 and 950° C allow to suppose that in this range of temperature, to form a fine-grained microstructure of steels, dynamic recrystallization can be used. At a temperature of 850° C, the dynamic recrystallization leads to structure refinement after true strain of about 0.51. Research limitations/implications: To determine in detail the hot-working behaviour of developed steels, a progress of recrystallization as a function of time at deformation temperature should be investigated. Practical implications: The obtained stress-strain curves can be useful in determination of power-force parameters of hot-rolling of high-manganese austenitic steels. Originality/value: The hot-working behaviour of new-devoloped high-manganese austenitic steels containing Nb and Ti microadditions was investigated.

Purpose: The work consisted in investigation of newly elaborated high-manganese austenitic steels with Nb and Ti microadditions in variable conditions of hot-working. Design/methodology/approach: Determination of processes controlling strain hardening was carried out in continuous compression test using Gleeble 3800 thermo-mechanical simulator. Findings: It was found that they have austenite microstructure with numerous annealing twins in the initial state. Continuous compression tests realized in the temperature range from 850 to 1050*C with the strain rate of 10s -1 enabled determination of yield stress values and values of εmax deformations-corresponding to maximum flow stress. It was found that initiation of dynamic recrystallization requires true strain equal at least 0.29. Holding of steel after plastic deformation allowed determining the progress of recrystallization in the function of isothermal holding time. Determined half-times of recrystallization at 900oC after deformation with 25% of reduction are equal 32 and 17s for 27Mn-4Si-2Al-Nb-Ti and 26Mn-3Si-3Al-Nb-Ti steel, respectively. Several-stage compression tests with true strain of 0.29 permit to use dynamic recrystallization for shaping fine-grained microstructure of steel in the whole range of deformation temperature. Decreasing true strain to 0.23 limits the course of dynamic recrystallization to two first deformation cycles. In two final cycles of deformation, as well as in the whole range of hot-working realized with true strain of 0.19-dynamic recovery is the process controlling strain hardening. Practical implications: The obtained microstructure-hot-working conditions relationships and stress-strain curves can be useful in determination of power-force parameters of hot-rolling for sheets with fine-grained austenitic structures. Originality/value: The hot-working behaviour and microstructure evolution in various conditions of plastic deformation for new-developed high-manganese austenitic steels with Nb and Ti microadditions were investigated.
