Although the effect of grain refinement on material strength has been extensively studied, its impact on solid-state phase transformation in metals is not yet well understood. This book provides a systematic introduction to how grain size affects the solid-phase transformation of steels. This includes the pearlite, martensite, bainite and tempering transformations. A critical discovery is revealed that opens up a new approach to designing and producing high-strength steels at low cost: when grain size falls below 4  m, traditional phase transition patterns change dramatically. Rather than forming lamellar structures, the pearlite transition produces granular cementite in a ferrite matrix, and the martensite transition shifts from twin to dislocation structures. This breakthrough enables the development of high-strength steels (2500-2600 MPa) with good ductility (11-7% elongation) using minimal alloying elements, offering a cost-effective approach to producing super-strong steels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis work will be an invaluable resource for academics and students of materials science, physics and mechanics, as well as engineers, technicians and researchers working in metallurgy and materials development.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CRC Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47568718594199,"sku":"9781041203087","price":14111.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781041203087.webp?v=1774870350","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/solid-state-phase-transformation-and-mechanical-properties-of-ultrafine-grained-steels-9781041203087","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
