Notes:
Temper embrittlement and fracture control method based on both non-equilibriumgrain-boundary segregation (NGS) theory and grain refinement technique are studied in this paper.Grain refinement technique by deformation induced phase transformation in low-alloy steels,12Gr1MoV and 2.25Gr1MoNb, is investigated. A single-pass hot rolling process by using aGleeble-1500 system is performed. Experimental results show that steel strength and toughness maybe controlled and improved by grain refinement, and that the grain sizes were affected by thedeforming temperature, strain reduction, and strain rate. According to the NGS theory, a controlmethod of brittle fracture along grain-boundary is proposed so that some catastrophically brittlefracture failure may be averted. Grain refinement may decrease both the concentration ofphosphorus at grain boundaries and the critical time. With the grain refinement technique, thetemper embrittlement of steel may be improved, and the critical time may be shortened. The cost ofheat treatment for fracture control will therefore be reduced
