Comparison of Medium Manganese Steel and Q345 Steel on Corrosion Behavior in a 3.5 wt % NaCl Solution. [PDF]
A cyclic wet/dry accelerated corrosion test was used to compare the corrosion behavior of medium-Mn steel and Q345 steel. In terms of scanning electron microscope (SEM), using X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and analysis of the corrosion process, the results showed that the medium-Mn

Advanced High-Strength Medium-Manganese Steels as an Alternative to Conventional Forging Steels: A Review. [PDF]
This review highlights conventional forging steels and advanced medium-Mn steels containing retained austenite (RA), emphasizing their potential for industrial forging applications. Modern steels intended for forgings are required to combine strength, ductility, toughness and fatigue resistance with good hardenability and machinability at minimal cost.

Tempering and Austempering of Double Soaked Medium Manganese Steels [PDF]
The addition of a tempering or austempering step to the double soaking of a 0.14C–7.17Mn (wt pct) steel was investigated in the present contribution. The double soaking heat treatment is a two-step intercritical annealing heat treatment, which generates microstructures of athermal martensite, retained austenite and ferrite when applied to medium ...

Forecasting the steelmaking and casting of a medium manganese steel
Abstract The steelmaking and casting of medium Mn steels brings some challenges in the production route because of their high alloying content. In this paper, the evaluation of the casting processes for these steel chemistries is assessed with a set of models and laboratory-scale tests, in order to find possible casting conditions ...

Plasma Nitriding of an Air-Hardening Medium Manganese Forging Steel
Abstract The impact of plasma nitriding on the microstructure and the hardness of a recently developed 4 wt.-% medium manganese steel are presented. In contrast to standard quench and tempering steels, the investigated material achieves its martensitic microstructure by air-cooling from the forging heat, which enables the reduction of

Alloying and Processing of Medium Manganese Steels for Forging Applications
AbstractThe processability of medium Mn-containing steels (MMnS) with 4–10% Mn is discussed in light of their continuous casting behavior. Precipitation, phase transformation, extension, or shift of solidification intervals induced by various alloying concepts are decisive in controlling the hot ductility. It turns out that the formation of complex AlN

Microstructure Evolution of a Medium Manganese Steel During Thermomechanical Processing [PDF]
An as-cast Fe-0.2C-10Mn-3Si-3Al medium manganese steel with a ferrite plus austenite duplex microstructure was subjected to hot compression tests at deformation temperatures within two-phase (α + γ) range and various strain rates. The microstructure evolution of the experimental steel during hot deformation was investigated.
