Abstract: The thermomechanical control process(TMCP) was carried out for the high Ti microalloyed low carbon steel. The effects of supercooling and the atomic diffusion rate on the evolution of the microstructure and the behavior of the (Ti, Mo)C particles precipitation were studied under different controlled cooling rates and coiling temperatures. The results showed that the comprehensive mechanical properties of the experimental steel were outstanding with the cooling rate of 30℃/s and the coiling temperature of 420℃, i.e., the yield strength of the steel was 690MPa, the tensile strength was 820MPa, the elongationafterfracture was 18%, and the experimental steel possessed excellent low temperature impact toughness. The microstructure consisted of polygonal ferrite,acicular ferrite, fine M/A islands and nanoscale (Ti, Mo)C precipitates, and the strength and toughness are wellmatched.
