Conclusions Conclusions
Martensitic Mn-steels (~0,01wt%C): good ductility
+ controlled amounts of Ni (2 wt%), Al (0.15 wt%), … increase strength during aging by formation of nanosized precipitations without significant reduction of ductility
By controlling the austenite stability (here by Mn) martensite can be refined and ductility can be further increased by retained and reverted austenite (TRIP)
Design of “Lean Maraging TRIP steel“ Precipitation hardening
Austenite (retained + new) Increase ductility
Increase strength
