Problems solved by technology

However, the disadvantage of medium carbon steel is poor hardenability, and the dispersion strengthening effect of granular carbides distributed on the ferrite matrix after quenching and tempering treatment is insufficient, resulting in low strength of medium carbon steel, which cannot meet some high strength requirements. In order to maximize the performance of medium carbon steel due to the requirements of working conditions, it is of practical significance to explore new methods to improve the mechanical properties of medium carbon steel.
[0003] At present, the commonly used methods are mainly to add alloying elements to steel and thermal processing (including: deformation, heat treatment, etc.). Although the effect of adding alloying elements is good, there are strict control of the process system, high cost, and uneven structure. Phenomenon
However, the use of thermal processing to improve the mechanical properties of medium carbon steel is limited.

Abstract

The invention provides a hot working method for improving mechanical properties of medium carbon steel, and relates to the technical field of metal material science. The hot working method comprises the step: the medium carbon steel is sequentially subjected to high-temperature and high-pressure heat treatment and low-temperature and high-pressure heat treatment. The medium carbon steel is subjected to high-temperature and high-pressure heat treatment to obtain a fine martensite structure with the high dislocation density, dislocation provides more positions for precipitation of carbide in thesubsequent low-temperature and high-pressure heat treatment process, and the number of precipitated carbide particles is increased; and through low-temperature and high-pressure heat treatment, the diffusion coefficient of atoms is decreased under the high pressure effect, thus the number of the precipitated carbide particles is large, the precipitated carbide particles are not prone to growing up and thus are finer and more dispersed, the dispersion enhancement effect is enhanced, and the hardness and strength of the medium carbon steel are increased. Compared with the same process normal-pressure heat treatment, the hardness value and compression yield strength of the medium carbon steel treated through the hot working method are increased by 10.00-12.12% and 10.77-14.33% correspondingly.
