English abstract:
In recent years, Quenching and Partitioning (Q&P) became an interesting thermal process route for semi-finished high strength low alloyed steel components. Recent publications demonstrate promising mechanical properties with considerable ductility enhancement. To assess the potential of the two-step Q&P heat treatment in seamless tube production, corresponding tests are carried out on 42SiCrB steel (0.42wt% C, 2.0wt% Si, 1.3wt.% Cr, 0.6wt.% Mn, 0.002wt.% B). Feasible Q&P heat treatment process parameters are identified using the Constrained-Carbon-Equilibrium (CCE) model, carbon diffusion calculations and isothermal TTT curves with previous quenching. Furthermore achieved volume fraction of retained austenite is analyzed by XRD experiments.
