Abstract :
In the present study, the influence of annealing temperature on mechanical properties and the microstructure of
a high manganese austenitic steel (Fe-30Mn-4Al-4Si-0.5C) was investigated. X-ray diffractometry, optical and
scanning electron microscopy, hardness and tensile tests were used to analyze the relationship between mechanical
properties and microstructure after annealing process. The results indicated an optimum combination of strength
and elongation under the condition of high cold rolling reduction with subsequent annealing in the partial
recrystallization region.
