In order to investigate grain size effect on dynanic fracture, raw material (SS41) was heat - treated with suitable process. Dynamic fracture toughness test was performed by an instrumented impact test ing machine with variations of the grain size, temperature ana impact loading velocity.
At room temperature, regardless of grain size the absorbed energy of dual phase steel is 0.25 MNm^(-1), which is about 10% of the raw material. But at -50℃, the absorbed energy of dual phase steel is shout the same as that of raw material. Therefore, raw material has higher absorbed energy than dual phase steel over all temperature region dynamic fracture toughness shows reverse behavior compared with the absorbed energy, that is, dual phase steel has dynamic fracture toughness value of 3500∼4500MPa√mm which is two times as large as that of raw material. For the case of variation in grain size of dual phase steel, the resulted dynamic fracture toughness is series A ≒ series B > series C at room temperature, In Kid - T behaviors, The curse of series A shows resemblance to that of series K, and series B to series C.
The smaller is the grain size of dual phase steel, the higher dynamic fracture toughness can be obtained.
