Objective
The project will assess the benefits that can be achieved in terms of strength, ductility and toughness by the formation of ultra-fine (UF) microstructures either in the bulk or the external layers of strips/plates and rods of low and medium/high carbon steels. A wide range of steels will be considered, concerning carbon content from 0,04% to 1,6% as well as the use of microalloying additions. Recommendations with emphasis on the fundamental metallurgy and process conditions, concentrating on approaches which would involve minimum changes to process technology, will be given to the new thin-slab and strip casting facilities.
