Microstructure and fracture mechanism of 1000 MPa hot dip galvanized dual phase steel

1 000 MPa grade hot dip galvanized dual phase steel was produced by simulating the process of hot dip galvanizing.The fracture behavior of the dual phase steel was observed by in-situ tension experiment,and its fracture mechanism was further analyzed by SEM and TEM.The results show that dual phase steel(F+M) with a tensile strength of 1 022 MPa and an elongation of 9.5% can be obtained when the annealing temperature is 820℃.During the process of dynamic tension,new micro-cracks initiate in the plastic zone of crack tips and wave-like slip bands generate in ferrite grains in the plastic zone.When the crack meets martensite,it changes its propagation direction and get around the martensite island;but when the crack meets ferrite,the ferrite grain is plastically broken up through the way of joining micro-pores.The final fracture pattern is plastic fracture and the fracture morphology of the sample is a dimple pattern.
