The beneficial effect of B on the hot ductility of 20CrMnTi steel with 0.05% Sn was investigated. The results show that there is a trough in the hot ductility-temperature curve. With the increase in the B content, the trough shifts to a lower temperature and becomes shallow, and the hot brittle range becomes narrow. In addition, B greatly enhancing the hot ductility was due mainly to its suppressing the Sn segregation, retarding the austenite/ferrite deformation, accelerating the onset of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) and promoting the intragranular nucleation of ferrite. Moreover, in the present case, adding 92 ppm B can nucleation of ferrite. Moreover, in the present case, adding 92 ppm B can obtain the best effect in improving the hot ductility of 20CrMnTi steel with 0.05% Sn.
Key words: Boron / tin / hot ductility / 20CrMnTi steel
