Abstract: The effects of cooling process parameters on microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti microalloyed automobile frame steel 510L were studied by laminar cooling, coiling process simulation experiment and laboratory hot rolling experiment. Industrial trial production was made at the production site. The results showed that great cooling rate is advantageous to the precipitation of dispersed and fine TiC particles. The effects of cooling rate and final cooling temperature on the strength of the experimental steel include the joint action of precipitation strengthening, fine grain strengthening and phase transformation strengthening. N content significantly influences the precipitation strengthening effect of Ti. The N content in the steel should be strictly controlled during smelting, otherwise it will have a great influence on the properties of the steel plate. Mass stable production of Ti microalloyed automobile frame steel 510L with low cost has been realized.

Key words: Ti microalloyed, 510L, thermo-mechanical control process(TMCP), microstructure evolution, mechanical properties
