For this reason, two different heat treatments (intercritical and intermediate heat treatments) have been applied to the steel in order to obtain different dual-phase. However, one set of intermediate quenched samples was tempered. It was observed that volume fraction of martensite and grain size increased as the annealing temperature and time increased in the intercriticaly annealed steels. The specimens that have different microstructures were subjected to tensile testing and compared according to their heat treatment conditions. It was observed that steels obtained with intermediate quenching (IQ steels) lead to highest tensile strength but low elongation and wear resistance. In contrast to their elongation properties, tempered IQ steels exhibited a lower strength than samples obtained with intermediate quenching. It is argued that optimum mechanical properties in IQ steel can best be achieved by obtaining a microstructure containing fine, fibrous needle-like martensite.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessMaterials scienceAnnealingCarbonGrain size and shapeHeat treatmentMechanical propertiesMicrostructureQuenchingTensile propertiesWear resistanceAbrasive wear propertiesDual phase steels (DPS)Fibrous needle-like martensitesOptimum mechanical propertiesSteelDeformation-behaviorMartensiteMicrostructureStrainMorphologyDuctilityStrengthArticle0002259296000032-s2.0-99442562295715764611-12Materials science, characterization and testingFerrite; Martensite; Dp600
