Procesamiento y caracterización de aceros microaleados calmados al aluminio

Abstract

A series of microalloyed aluminium-killed steels stabilized with titanium, were made by means of the route of electrical arc furnace, vacuum degasser, secondary refinement and steel solidified into a continuous casting process. The resultant samples were hot rolling at 1100$^{\circ}$C, cooled in air down to 650$^{\circ}$C during 30 minutes, and cooled to room temperature. The resultant samples were cold rolled at room temperature and annealed at 700$^{\circ}$C. In their microstructural, texture and mechanical properties evaluation, the re-crystallized samples showed mechanical properties similar to those used in the automotive industry.
