摘　　要：Precipitation behavior of （Ti, V, Mo）C and microstructural evolution of the ferritic Ti-V-Mo complex microalloyed steel were investigated through changing coiling temperature （CT）. It is demonstrated that the strength of the Ti-V-Mo microalloyed steel can be ascribed to the combination of grain refinement hardening and precipitation hardening. The variation of hardness （from 318 to 415 HV, then to 327 HV） with CT （from 500 to 600-625 ℃, then to 700 ℃） was attributed to the changes of volume fraction and particle size of （Ti, V, Mo）C precipitates. The optimum CT was considered as 600-625 ℃, at which the maximum hardness value （415 HV） can be obtained. It was found that the atomic ratios of Ti, V and Mo in （Ti, V, Mo）C carbides were changed as the CT increased. The precipitates with the size of 〈 10 nm were the V-rich particles at higher CT of 600 and 650 ℃, while the Ti-rich particles were observed at lower CT of 500 and 550 ℃. Theoretical calculations indicated that the maximum nucleation rate of （Ti, V, Mo）C in ferrite matrix occurred around 630 ℃, which was consistent with the 625 ℃ obtained from experiment results.Precipitation behavior of （Ti, V, Mo）C and microstructural evolution of the ferritic Ti-V-Mo complex microalloyed steel were investigated through changing coiling temperature （CT）.
