The Quenching and Partitioning (Q&P) process allows the production of steels with controlled fractions of retained austenite from the enrichment of the austenite by carbon partitioning from the martensite without carbide precipitation. The retained austenite is responsible for the TRIP effect (transformation induced plasticity), which enhances the material behavior providing a uniform strain and a better energy absorption during impact. Steels produced by this process match the requirements of the automotive industry, which looks for weight reduction and safety improvements in cars. In the present dissertation, steels with different compositions and grain sizes were produced by the Quenching and Partition process and their retained austenite fraction was measured by x-ray diffraction. The steels were also characterized by nanoindentation, optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The specimens studied were produced by a complete austenitization at 930°C, to promote an increase in the austenitic grain size, and the results were compared with previously studied specimens produced by a complete austenitization at 890°C. The experimental results indicate an increase of austenite fraction with an increase in grain size of the original austenite. These results were analyzed based on the theoretical model develop for the Q&P process.
