3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this part, the following term and definition apply.
3.1
transformation induced plasticity steels (TR)
steel with its microstructure mainly composed of ferrite, bainite and a small amount of bainite or residual austenite, wherein, the residual austenite may be transformed into martensite in the forming process; it has a high work hardening rate, percentage uniform elongation and tensile strength, and also has a higher elongation compared with dual phase steel of equal tensile strength.
4 Classification and code
4.1 The designation of steel is composed of three parts: the initial capital letters of “Hot Rolled”, i.e. “HR”, the specified minimum yield strength/specified minimum tensile strength, and the first two letters of “Transformation Induced Plasticity”, i.e. “TR”.
Example: HR400/590TR
HR——the initial capital letter of “Hot Rolled”;
400/590——400: the specified minimum yield strength; 590: the specified minimum tensile strength, in MPa;
TR——the first two letters of “Transformation Induced Plasticity”.
4.2 The surface conditions of steel sheet and strip are classified as hot rolled and hot rolled pickled, and the latter is indicated with “P”.
4.3 The surfaces of steel sheet and strip are classified as ordinary (FA) and superior (FB) in accordance with surface quality.
