The deformation behavior and microstructure of 25CrMo4 axle steel was systematically investigated by thermal compression deformation. hot-compression test a sample carried out on Gleeble-3800 mechanical simulation tester. flow the alloy studied at temperature (900–1200 °C), strain rates (0.01; 0.1; 1.0) s–1 maximum 60 %. curves under different conditions were obtained, effects rate appearance a...
