使用热膨胀仪、SEM电镜、EBSD、硬度、拉伸和冲击等观察和检测手段,研究了淬火冷却速率对海洋平台用Ni-Cr-Mo-B钢的显微组织、有效晶粒尺寸(EGS)和力学性能的影响。结果表明,不同冷却速率的合金钢,其显微组织包括板条马氏体(LM)、板条贝氏体(LB)、粒状贝氏体(GB)和F(铁素体)。随着淬火冷却速率的降低合金钢的显微组织分别为LM(>20℃/s)、LM/LB(20~2℃/s)、LB(2~1℃/s)、LB/GB(1~0.2℃/s)、GB/F(0.2~0.02℃/s),其硬度由100℃/s时的393HV逐渐降低至0.02℃/s时的291HV。回火后合金钢的屈服强度由水冷的836 MPa降低至炉冷的726 MPa,而延伸率几乎不变,约为20%。油冷合金钢的-60℃冲击功最高(199 J),水冷次之(54 J),空冷和炉冷合金钢的最低(<30 J)。其原因是,油冷合金钢具有LM_T/LB_T混合组织,较小的EGS (1.6 μm)对解理裂纹的阻碍作用较强;而空冷、炉冷合金钢的组织分别为GB_T/LB_T、GB_T/F,其EGS较大(分别为2.4和2.8 μm),对解理裂纹的阻碍作用较弱。

Fabricating Defect-Free API X65 Steel Welds under Underwater Wet Conditions using Friction Taper Plug Welding

The experiment on API X65 steel was carried out using friction taper plug welding (FTPW) under underwater wet conditions at room temperature. Sound weld formation can be achieved vastly at axial force ranging from 25 to 40 kN and a rotating speed of 7000 rpm. The microstructure of the weld zone consists of lath martensite, upper bainite, granular bainite, polygonal ferrite, and acicular ferrite. The microstructure of heat affected zone (HAZ) mainly consists of lath bainite as well as a bit of lath martensite and granular bainite. The tensile properties of defect-free welds are excellent. The maximum impact energy of the V-notch of bonding area can reach 110 J, which was conducted at 0°C with an error of ±12.5 J. The typical SEM impact fracture morphology presents areas of cleavage, quasi-cleavage, and dimples.

采用焊接热模拟技术和显微组织分析等方法,对Mg处理X100管线钢在连续冷却转变下的显微组织的变化规律进行了研究。通过对Mg处理X100管线钢CCT曲线的建立和显微组织分析结果表明:对比焊接CCT模拟工艺和常规950℃保温的CCT工艺,前者AC1、AC3相变点要分别高于后者25℃,奥氏体晶粒显著大于后者,冷却相变点要低于后者50～80℃。在焊接热模拟工艺下,当冷却速度在0.1～3℃/s之间时,组织以准多边形铁素体(QF)和粒状贝氏体为主;在3～30℃/s的冷却速度范围,主体组织为粒状贝氏体(GB)和针状铁素体(BF);当冷却速度为30～50℃/s,组织以贝氏体铁素体(BF)为主;大于50℃/s的冷却速度,将形成马氏体(M)组织。     

Effect of simulated welding thermal cycle on microstructure and mechanical properties of X90 pipeline steel

The effect of welding thermal cycle simulation on the microstructure and mechanical properties of X90 pipeline steel was investigated by means of microstructure analysis, tensile- and Charpy impact-tests. At the heat input of 15 kJ/cm, the microstructure of coarse-grained heat affected zone is mainly composed of lath bainite and granular bainite, resulting in excellent strength and toughness. At 25 kJ/cm with two thermal cycles, however, strength and impact toughness decrease due to the formation of more polygonal ferrite with coarser grains.     

Study on carbide-bearing and carbide-free bainitic steels and their wear resistance

Carbide-free and carbide-bearing bainitic steels have been obtained. The relationship between the bainitic microstructure and wear resistance has been studied. Results show that carbide-free upper and lower bainitic microstructures obtained in the steel with Si?+?Al mainly consist of bainitic ferrite and retained austenite. Carbide-bearing upper and lower bainitic microstructures obtained in the steel without Si?+?Al consist of bainitic ferrite, carbide and trace amounts of retained austenite. The carbide-free bainite exhibits higher strength and toughness than carbide-bearing bainite, especially the toughness. Under lower wear loading, carbide-bearing lower bainite (LB) exhibits higher wear resistance. Under higher wear loading, carbide-free LB exhibits higher wear resistance, which results from the improved surface hardness due to strain-induced martensitic transformation from the retained austenite.     

Effect of controlled rolling/controlled cooling parameters on microstructure and mechanical properties of the novel pipeline steel

The study of controlled rolling/controlled cooling process parameters which affect the microstructure and mechanical properties of a novel pipeline steel has been optimized by the orthogonal experiment with four factors and three levels in this paper.However,the parameters of thermo-mechanical control process(TMCP)optimized by the Gleeble-3500 hot simulator could not satisfy performance requirements of the X100 pipeline steel.In order to improve the performance of this steel,the influence of finish cooling temperature(FCT) on the microstructure and property is studied in detail.It is found that,as this steel is thermo-mechanically treated by this set of parameters(the start heating temperature,finish rolling temperature(FRT),FCT and cooling rate of 1,180℃,810℃,350℃ and 35℃/s,respectively),the microstructures are mainly composed of granular bainite(GB)and acicular ferrite(AF).The effective grain sizes are below 20μm;the steel reaches the optimal balance between the strength and the toughness;the yield strength is 695 MPa;the tensile strength is 768 MPa;the elongation is 16.6%;the impact energy is 262 J at room temperature.All indexes could meet the requirements of X100 pipeline steel.

焊接方法对X90管线钢焊接接头性能的影响

目前,关于焊接方法对X90管线钢焊接接头组织性能的影响相关报道较少。采用手工电弧焊(SMAW)、熔化极气体保护焊(GMAW)、埋弧焊(SAW)3种焊接方法对X90管线钢进行对接焊。利用金相显微镜(OM)、扫描电镜(SEM)及能谱仪(EDS)对焊接接头及冲击断口进行显微组织及成分分析,分析了焊接方法对X90管线钢焊接接头组织性能的影响规律。结果表明:焊缝区组织主要为粒状贝氏体和针状铁素体;SMAW粗晶区组织主要为多边形铁素体、粒状贝氏体及M/A组织,GMAW和SAW粗晶区组织主要为粗大的铁素体、粒状贝氏体及板条贝氏体;3种焊接接头硬度分布趋势一致,盖面层硬度最高;SMAW、GMAW和SAW焊接接头抗拉强度依次为714,771,790 MPa,断后伸长率依次为23.3%,22.9%,20.0%;SAW与GMAW熔合线处20℃冲击吸收功比SMAW高约40 J,断裂机制为微孔聚集型,在韧窝底部有金属碳化物粒子析出。     

Effect of reheat temperature on continuous cooling bainite transformation behavior in low carbon microalloyed steel

The effect of reheat temperature on continuous cooling bainite transformation in a low carbon microalloyed steel was investigated using a dilatometer based on welding thermal simulation process. The variation of microstructure was analyzed in detail by means of optical microscope and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The results showed that the morphology of the main microstructure changes from polygonal ferrite to granular bainite with increasing reheat temperature at a given lower cooling rate. For the higher cooling rate, the microstructure is predominantly lath bainite irrespective of the reheat temperature. The specimens with the relatively fine austenite grain size have the lowest bainite start and finish temperatures among the simulated sub-zones of heat affected zone, which is consistent with the result of the bainite lath width size observed using the TEM. Meanwhile, although the prevailing type of impingement mode of transformation is anisotropic growth impingement for all heat treatment processes, the reheat temperature has some influence on the maximum transformation rate and effective activation energy of bainite transformation.

Effect of laser incident energy on microstructures and mechanical properties of 12CrNi2Y alloy steel by direct laser deposition

This work aims to establish the effect of laser energy area density(EAD) as the laser incident energy on density, microstructures and mechanical properties of direct laser deposition(DLD) 12CrNi2 Y alloy steel.The results show that the density of DLD 12CrNi2 Y alloy steel increases at initial stage and then decreases with an increase of EAD, the highest density of alloy steel sample is 98.95%. The microstructures of DLD12CrNi2 Y alloy steel samples are composed of bainite, ferrite and carbide. With increase of EAD, the microstructures transform from polygonal ferrite(PF) to granular bainite(GB). The martensite-austenite constituent(M-A) in GB transforms from flake-like paralleling to the bainite ferrite laths to granular morphology. It is also found that the average width of laths in finer GB can be refined from 532 nm to 302 nm, which improves the comprehensive properties of DLD 12 CrNi2 Y alloy steel such as high hardness of 342 ± 9 HV_(0.2), yield strength of 702 ± 16 MPa, tensile strength of 901 ± 14 MPa and large elongation of15.2%±0.6%. The DLD 12CrNi2 Y material with good strength and toughness could meet the demand of alloy steel components manufacturing.     

Multiphase microstructure formation and its effect on fracture behavior of medium carbon high silicon high strength steel

This work investigated the evolution of multiphase microstructure and impact fracture behavior of medium carbon high silicon high strength steel subjected to the austempering treatment at 240,360,and 400 ℃.The results show that martensite,bainite,and retained austenite (RA) are the main microstructural phases.The austempering treatments at 360 and 400 ℃ caused the formation of carbon-poor ferrite in the matrix,and the transformation of ultrafine bainite into coarse lath bainite and granular bainite,respectively.Thick filmy RA was distributed between bainite laths.The polygonal martensiteaustenite islands and blocky RA formed along the grain boundaries.The average carbon concentration in the matrix decreased with the temperature increase,while the impact toughness initially increased and then dropped with temperature.The quasi-cleavage brittle fracture dominated the impact fracture mechanism of the sample austempered at 240 ℃ by forming tearing surfaces and tearing steps.The microcracks disappeared in the RA on the prior austenite grain boundaries.On the other side,the fracture surface of the sample austempered at 360 ℃ exhibited ductile fracture with deep dimples and brittle fracture with cleavage river patterns.The polygonal martensite-austenite islands or blocky RA constrained the microcracks.After austempered at 400 ℃,the brittle fracture was dominant,showing river patterns,and the microcracks propagated through the granular bainite without any resistance.     

Copper bearing microalloyed ultrahigh strength steel on a pilot scale: Microstructure and properties

In the present study, copper bearing low carbon microalloyed ultrahigh strength steel has been produced on a pilot scale. Transformation of the aforesaid steel during continuous cooling has been evaluated. The steel sample has been thermomechanically processed followed by either air cooling or water quenching. Variation in microstructure and mechanical properties at different finish rolling temperatures has been studied. A mixture of granular bainite, bainitic ferrite and precipitation of nano-sized (Ti, Nb)C particles is the characteristic microstructural feature of air cooled steel. On the other hand, predominantly lath martensitic structure along with the similar type of microalloying precipitates of air cooled steels and Cu precipitates are obtained in case of water quenched steel. The best combination of strength (1364-1403 MPa) and ductility (11-14%) has been achieved for the selected range of finish rolling temperature of water quenched steel.

Fracture toughness of nanostructured railway wheels

This paper describes nanostructured railway wheels made of Si–Mn–Mo–V low-carbon steel through an advanced metallurgy process and fabrication technology. The microstructure of the wheels, particularly in the rim portion, is composed of carbide-free bainite that consists of bainitic ferrite laths and retained austenite films along the lath boundaries. The thickness of the laths and films is in nanometer scale. For comparison, traditional pearlite–ferrite wheel steels are also investigated. Test results show that carbide-free bainite steel is superior to pearlite–ferrite steel not only in yield strength but also in fracture toughness. Theoretical explanation of these phenomena is also elucidated.     

Strengthening behavior analysis of weld metal of laser hybrid welding for microalloyed steel

The weld metal with high strength and good toughness was obtained for medium thickness microalloyed steel by using high power laser hybrid welding technology. Mechanical properties of weld metal were evaluated by using room temperature tensile test and low temperature three-side Charpy V-notch (CVN) impact test. The results show that the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of weld metal are up to 713 MPa and 918 MPa, respectively. Both of them are almost 1.5 times higher than those of base metal. Under the strict three sides CVN condition, the −40 °C low temperature impact absorbed energy is up to 32 J and also higher than that of base metal. Weld metal predominately consists of granular bainite and carbon-free bainite. Both of them mainly contain lath morphology bainitic ferrite. The lath morphology bainitic ferrite with fine grain size plays an important role in higher strength. Dispersive carbide and high density dislocation are found in strengthening weld metal.
