The mechanical properties of medium to high-Mn austenitic TWIP/TRIP steels subjected to warm to hot working were studied. The steel samples were processed by plate rolling at various temperatures ranging from 500° to 1150°. The deformation microstructures depend significantly on the rolling temperature. The discontinuous dynamic recrystallization readily developed during hot rolling at temperatures of T≥800°, whereas the work hardened microstructures with high dislocation densities evolved by warm rolling at temperatures below 800°. The warm to hot rolling strengthened the steels remarkably. The ultimate tensile strength in the range of 750-1250 MPa and the corresponding yield strength of 300-900 MPa could be obtained by processing at designated temperature.
