Abstract Acombination of high strength, good toughness, fatigue resistance and excellent corrosion resistance is required for developing new microalloyed low carbon steels. Microalloying treatment is one of most effective methods, in which small amount of alloying elements, such as Nb, V or Ti can improve the performance of steels significantly. The microalloying element Ti can react with carbon and nitrogen in the steel forming TiN, TiC and Ti(C,N) particles. These particles play important roles in precipitation strengthening, grain refinement strengthening and some other effects. The precipitation temperature of TiN particles is high, and the fine TiN particles can inhibit the growth of the grains at high temperature, specifi-cally the growth of prior austenite. TiC particles can be randomly precipitated in the ferrite matrix and maintain a certain crystal relationship with the matrix. Ti(C,N) particles are composed of TiC and TiN, which can pin dislocations and contribute to the precipitation strengthening. The size, morphology and distribution of these particles are influenced by the heat treatment process and composition. Therefore, the content of Ti and the heat treatment should be controlled carefully to avoid the formation of coarse second phase particles. The effects of microalloying Ti can also be influenced by other alloying elements in steels, such as molybdenum, manganese, boron and other elements. These alloying elements can affect each other, forming the synergistic effects, which can be applied to improve both strength and toughness. Ti can also be alloyed with Nb or V or both. Alloying of Ti and Nb together can improve the strength of the material without a large loss of plasticity. While Ti and V combination can improve the strength without sacrificing the toughness of the steels. However, it should be noted that the content of microalloying elements should be controlled carefully to avoid deteriorating the performance. This paper mainly introduces the current research status on the microalloying of Ti in low carbon steels. The strengthening and toughening mechanisms of the microalloying are also reviewed and discussed. These may provide some insights in designing and producing microalloyed steels with excellent performance.
