A review of recent progress in mechanical and corrosion properties of dual phase steels

New concepts proposed for processing of dual phase (DP) steels as one of the main classes of advanced high-strength steels (AHSSs) to enhance their mechanical properties (strength–ductility combination) and corrosion resistance were introduced. The current review covers (I) the processing routes to obtain the ferritic–martensitic microstructures, (II) parameters of intercritical annealing (IA) treatment, (III) primary thermomechanical...
