Abstract

Mechanism of dynamic strain aging (DSA) effect in high-Mn austenitic steel, and its correlation with the Portevin-Le Chatelier (PLC) banding, was elucidated using the in-situ synchrotron XRD measurement and digital image correlation (DIC) method during tensile test. The average dislocation velocity beyond the PLC band ranged from 10 −2 to 10 −1 nm/s, while reached to the order of 10° nm/s within the PLC band. In comparison, carbon diffusivity was significantly lower, allowing carbon atoms to diffuse only from 10 −7 to10 −9 nm in one second. The findings indicate that dislocations beyond the advancing PLC band were pinned by nearby carbon atoms, while dislocations within the PLC band became de-pinned from the carbons. Such localized pinning and de-pinning of dislocations occurred sequentially during deformation, appearing as the propagation of PLC bands in macroscopic scale.
