The mechanism of austenite grain growth prior to forging of 9% Cr ferritic steels was analyzed. Pre-forging heating temperature and holding time had an obvious effect on austenite grain size and delta ferrite morphology. Hot compression experiments were conducted by using a Gleeble 1500D thermal-mechanical simulator. A hot upsetting test was performed on an HP01-500 oil press to verify the geometric dynamic recrystallization mechanism. New extrusion technology parameters of steel tubes were optimized by the Deform 2D software, and practical tests were conducted. Results indicated that the grains grew slowly at low temperatures (i.e., 1000 degrees C and 1050 degrees C). The kinetic curve of grain growth was close to the "S" type at 1100 degrees C. The grains exhibited abnormal grain growth at high temperatures (i.e., 1150 degrees C and 1200 degrees C). The quantity of delta ferrites markedly increased at 1250 degrees C. In addition, grains were refined by geometric dynamic recrystallization during the formation process. Mechanical properties of 9% Cr tube met standard requirements.
