Superplastic alloys exhibit extremely high ductility (>300%) without cracks when tensile-strained at temperatures above half of their melting point. Superplasticity, which resembles the flow behavior of honey, is caused by grain boundary sliding in metals. Although several non-ferrous and ferrous superplastic alloys are reported, their practical applications are limited due to high material cost, low strength after forming, high deformation temperature, and complicated fabrication process. Here

Medium‐Mn steels have received significant attention from the steel industry as strong candidate materials for next‐generation advanced high‐strength steels. These steels can be manufactured by various routes, such as hot rolling plus annealing or cold rolling plus annealing, resulting in two different microstructural morphologies: laminate morphology or globular morphology with two‐phase microstructures. The resulting change in the microstructural morphology leads to a significant difference in
