摘      要：Hot deformation behavior of an Fe-20Mn-19Cr-0.5C-0.6N high-nitrogen austenitic steel has been studied by isothermal compression tests in deformation temperature range of 800-1200℃ and strain rate range of 0.01-10 s^-1. Results indicate that the Fe-20Mn-19Cr-0.5C-0.6N steel has high deformation resistance due to strong hindering effect on dislocation moving by nitrogen-induced lattice misfit. The twinning-induced plasticity effect is gradually suppressed with the increase in deformation temperature, and high-temperature plastic deformation mechanism by twinning is gradually replaced by dislocation planar slip. The deformation resistance is up to 343 MPa at deformation conditions of (1000 ℃, 0.01 s^-1), which is over 100 MPa higher than that in martensitic steel and 50 MPa higher than that in austenitic steel. Besides, value of deformation activation energy for the Fe-20Mn-19Cr-0.6N steel is up to 784 kJ mol^-1. Power dissipation efficiency is lower than 0.13, while hot processing map exhibits a very wide range of working area. The optimum hot working process obtains at deformation temperature range of 950-1200℃ and strain rate range of 0.01-10 s^-1, when deformation acti-vation energy is less than 662.6 kJ mol^-1, power dissipation efficiency exceeds 0.22, dynamic recrystallization fraction is over 46.1% and microstructures are without instable characteristics.
