INTRODUCTION
•TRIP-aided steels are new generation of low-alloy steel
•Enhanced combination of strength and ductility.
•Triple phase micro structure – Ferrite, bainite and retained
austenite.
•Greater elongation.
•High strain hardening capacity.
•Good formability and drawability.

COMPOSITION OF TRIP STEEL
•Hypoeutectoid iron carbon alloys.
•0.1 – 0.4 % carbon by weight.
•Alloying elements to prevent high carbon cementite phase,
which raises the carbon concentration of the austenite phase.
•Silicon and Aluminium are two common alloying elements.
•Titanium, Niobium, Vanadium, etc., are other alloying elements
can be added to improve the strength of the alloy.
•Good formability and drawability.

PROCESSING METHOD
•Intercritical annealing is used to obtain the correct
phase distribution.
•Temperature above Eutectoid – material is composed of a solid
austenite phase and solid ferrite phase.
•The material is then isothermally cooled at a temperature of
approximately 400 degrees Celsius, in order to allow the austenite
to form a banitic ferrite phase.
•In a typical steel alloy, the excess carbon would form a high
carbon cementite phase. However, the silicon and aluminium
prevent the formation of cementite.
•The result of the intercritical annealing process is a material
composed primarily of ferrite, and bainite. formed from the
austenite phase during intercritical annealing, as well as dispersed
retained austenite, and martensite phases.

ECONOMICS OF TRIP STEELS
•Usually, steel is used for its strength, formability and
low cost relative to other metals.
•Titanium, magnesium and aluminum offers significant weight
savings in automobile components.
•Lower abudance, high production cost and high machining cost.
•TRIP steels don not face any of these difficulties, because they are
low alloy steel.
•TRIP steels can be produced for the same price as other high
strength steel.

APPLICATION
•As a result of their high energy absorption capacity and
fatigue strength, TRIP steels are particularly well suited for
automotive structural and safety parts such as
Cross members,
Longitudinal beams,
B- pillar reinforcements,
Sills and bumper reinforcements.
