One of the production methods for this grade of steel is the hot rolling process. Despite the fact that these steels have been produced on an industrial scale for almost 40 years, they are still being studied intensively, with new research on the formation of their microstructure and properties published every year. This article focuses on the characteristics of DP600 steel produced on a hot rolling mill for applications in automotive industry. The article presents the results of mechanical properties tests and microstructure analysis of DP600 steel obtained in an industrial hot rolling process. The general characteristic of DP600 steel presented in this article, is supplemented with statistical analysis of correlations between chemical composition, selected process parameters and mechanical properties of hot rolled DP600 steel.}, type={Article}, title={Characteristic of DP600 Steel Produced in Hot Rolling Process}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/129673/PDF/AMM-2023-4-49-Kazmierski.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2023.146234}, keywords={Dual phase steels, hot rolling process, mechanical properties, automotive industry}, }
