The work addresses relationships between the microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of two thermomechanically processed bainitic steels containing 3 and 5% Mn. The steels contain blocky-type and interlath metastable retained austenite embeded between laths of bainitic ferrite. To monitor the transformation behaviour of retained austenite into strain-induced martensite tensile tests were interrupted at 5%, 10%, and rupture strain. The identification of retained austenite and strain-induced martensite was carried out using light microscopy (LM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with EBSD (Electron Backscatter Diffraction) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The amount of retained austenite was determined by XRD. It was found that the increase of Mn addition from 3 to 5% detrimentally decreases a volume fraction of retained austenite, its carbon content, and ductility.
