Martensite treatment is one of the known thermo-mechanical processes that can be used for the grain refinement of metastable austenitic stainless steels. In this work, the martensite to austenite reversion behavior as well as its effect on the processing of nanocrystalline structure in an as-cast AISI 201L austenitic stainless steel was investigated. The as-cast specimens were first homogenized and then hot forged in order to prepare a suitable microstructure for the subsequent martensite treatment. The cold rolling was carried out to various reductions between 10% and 95% followed by annealing at temperature range of 750–900 °C for different times of 15–1800 s. The microstructure characterization was performed using optical and scanning electron microscopies, X-ray diffraction and Feritscope. Hardness measurements were also used for evaluating the mechanical properties of the experimental material. The results indicated that the specimen which was reversion-annealed at 850 °C for 30 s exhibited the smallest average austenite grain size of 65 nm with more than 86% austenite.
► The martensite formation becomes saturated at εs = 0.5.
► The smallest average grain size of 65 nm is achieved by annealing at 850 °C for 30 s.
► The nanocrystalline 201L steel showed good combination of strength and elongation.
► The rate of martensite reversion was very high for the primary annealing times.
