Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="normal" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x content-type="archive" xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>From a ferrite/martensite cold-rolled microstructure, the interaction between ferrite recrystallization and austenite formation is investigated. It is observed that a slow heating rate promotes the ferrite recrystallization and a homogeneous microstructure, whereas a fast heating rate delays the recrystallization and leads to heterogeneously distributed austenite islands. </p> </abstract>
